According to one of my colleagues, it got worse in 2023. It will be interesting to see if it improved this year.
That surprises me. Our son was accepted at the law school in 2019, we toured on an open house day, met with faculty and staff, they had a session for parents, prospective students got to attend a class, etc. Very professionally done, he was impressed and it made for a hard choice.
My son chose to go elsewhere (U of Denver), UR's scholarship package wasn't as good as DU's and then with COVID it was nicer to have him closer to home.
Stats are funny. Colorado is supposedly a superior school to DU but the year my son took the bar, DU had a higher passage rate.
TC Williams once had the highest pass rate in the state. It got away from teaching fundamental law towards more woke courses. Like the rest of UR, it watered down its curricula.

I have no knowledge of that but I don’t dismiss it either, would not surprise me if played a role. Tho my guess is the declining quality of admitted students more likely. Mush into mush. Old Pres. Cooper finally vindicated? Think applies a little more these days to post grad like law & med schools in particular.
For example they changed a full year of property law to a watered down property law with a heavy emphasis on environmental law in one semester.
