By Dan Markel, Ethan Leib, Rick Garnett, Matt Bodie, Paul Horwitz , Steve Vladeck, and Orly Lobel
Just to throw a little more spicy paprika into the "how should we re-engineer law school?" mix, Ben Barros from Widener (otherwise known as PropertyProf) has a post suggesting that basic doctrinal law courses be taught at the undergraduate level, and that students be offered the chance to place out of them when entering law school (akin to the Advanced Placement program that exists between colleges and high schools).
Teaching undergrads sounds like fun; at the law school level, this cure may be worse than the disease. But it's out of the box!
