Thanks for the info.
So basically the market is correcting itself.
YES
In a nutshell. Too many lawyers, not enough customers = starving lawyers. Starving lawyers = too little incentive for more people to become lawyers so law school enrollment is dropping nationally.
There is still demand for specialty law like Intellectual Property, International, Maritime, etc, but those are specialties and the jobs, while in demand, are harder to get so go only to the high achievers.
FWIW, in the list of ranked law schools by US News:
VALPO is listed as "not ranked"
IU Indianapolis/McKinney School of Law is #88
IU Bloomington/Mauer School of Law is #30
Notre Dame School of Law is #20
