I heard Penn Law stole Cardozo's all-star from Joe in a Book. Huge grab for Penn.

Philly to 190!

Dozo pwns ForTTTam

I bet those kids at Cardozo with jobs love to strut about their school lording over the peasants. It must be like lord of the flies in there.

In an interesting twist, I heard that Cardozo Law Revue and Fordham Law had their after-parties at the same Karaoke bar and they almost came to fisticuffs. Apparently, a cat fight almost broke out.

Did my 1L year at Cardozo before escaping to T10-er pastures. Lots of smart kids there. Too bad nobody tells them that unless you are top 10%, you are going to the Law Department.

Dude has man-boobs-

oh for god's sake. it's because of small variations in the statistical sample. is there any prestige difference between 52 and 59? who cares about the fucking rankings?

2:25, other than "T10" and "Not"... nobody worth mentioning.

It might have something to do with one of their graduates booting themselves out of the 70th floor of the Empire State Building. $180K debt, dim job prospects. What a toilet!!!!!!

2:31,

I think that dude was just fucked up, independently of where he got his JD. Pretty low of you to go there just to put down a law school.

2:31, I would bet that J. Stevens would disagree with your characterization of Cardozo Law as a toilet.

If the credit market stays where it is, a lot more schools will resemble "toilets" in terms of job placement.

TTT = school where only top 10-15% get jobs that justify the debt load. Today that's Cardozo; tomorrow it'll be Fordham.

People who keep throwing around "TTT" only do so because they have a small penis. When you're 45 nobody gives a f*** where you went to law school - it all comes down to how hot your wife is or whether, for that matter, you've been able to avoid acquiring one.

2:47 could not get into fordham. Dont hate buddy. Fordham grads will probably give you a job (temping)....its part of the jesuit tradition....to help others and all.

2:53 - what kind of "job" is it that is part of the "jesuit tradition"?

at least it seems like cardozo students have some personality and humor. can the same be said at other law schools?

ha! that video was hilarious! good job cardozo!

Mr Punon, aka 256,

You, as a ttt grad/student did not see the paren with the word "temping" in the middle?

I was not talking about the type of job you performed to get through law school.

2:57: Good point. The skits from Columbia et al. are always painfully boring.

2:57, yes. See, e.g., UVA's 100 year old Libel Show.

Ok - I think I can clear this up:

Penn State is a state school and has a renowned football team that plays in the Ivy League athletic conference. It has a law school which was consistently ranked in the top 20 but has dropped to #77 as of this year.

University of Penn (State Philadelphia campus) is a private school, and its football team plays in the Big 10 athletic conference. It has a law school which was in the tier2 but has recently risen to the top 7.

3:44 - what are you clearing up? Everybody knows that Penn State and UPenn are completely separate law schools. And, get your facts straight. You are way off in your explanation.

UVA Law Libel Show videos should be up on YouTube in a couple of week's time (show was last week) and I can guarantee they contain 100% less man boobage and at least 30% more funny.

3:54

Read ATL comments much?

3:54 - heard of trolls much?

3:44 is just wrong. Penn State (Philly campus) is the one rated #7. UPenn (Wharden campus) is rated #77. I don't understand how people keep mixing them up.

I took my MPRE at the UPenn - ITT Campus, the one near Hooters. Pretty nice mechanics bay they got there.

3:54 played himself!

That was fierce! Thanks for letting public know about the hidden talents of Cardozo grads!

4:07 - I was at the show. It was better than this, but it wasn't funny.

When you're 45 nobody gives a f*** where you went to law school - it all comes down to how hot your wife is or whether, for that matter, you've been able to avoid acquiring one

Yeah, 45 year old "bachelors" are widely admired in our society . . .

No, no, no. Penn acquired Dickinson Law from Penn State, who still has their campus in Philly. Penn now has two campuses-- one in Carlisle and one in University Park. Penn State just has the one campus in Philly. It also has a football stadium that seats over 100k people. Penn State is ranked number 7, next to its big ten foe Michigan, while Penn is ranked 77, close to Penn State's other foes, ohio state and cornell.

You think people could keep this straight.

These are the wackest people on EARTH!!!

"That bitch doesn't even know what a reasonable and prudent person is! Haha hahaha hahaha hahaha" LMAO classic

Cardozo law revue show = l33t

I didn't know Topenga went to Cardozo law.

5:13 - That shit is hilarious!

5:13 - That shit is hilarious!

That video is garbage. I can't believe I watched the whole thing...just waiting for it to get funny, I guess. Puke.

If you know Project Runway this is great, if not you probably won't get it.

did anyone notice that US News reported cornell's bar passage rate as higher than cardozo's? i thought cardozo was 3rd in the state, right behind nyu and columbia?

Why would anyone worth providing a legal education to look that closely at those stats, 5:50?

Penn State's grads mostly go to NYC straight from Philly, so it might as well be a New York school. If you factor that in, Cardozo and Cornell are 4th and 5th.

JERUSALEM - Israel announced plans Monday for 1,400 new homes on land the Palestinians claim for a future state — just hours after U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice ended a peacekeeping mission to the region.

Well, it was 55-esque. Cardozo to 73rd comming soon.

my maid went to Cardozo. she don't miss a trick and is especially good with stains

2:24, you could do a lot worse than the Law Department. See e.g., Staten Island DA/Queens PD/Skadden Associate.

I went to a T14 and chose to go to the Law Dept. I also had friends who went to places like Skadden, and came to the LD after a year of being abused at BigLaw. No billing, decent hours and 4 weeks of paid leave you can actually take goes a long way towards a happy life, despite having to stretch your paycheck to pay NY rents.

Are the people commenting here on Penn State versus U Penn continuing some kind of inside joke? Penn State is hours away from Philadelphia, while UPenn is the largest employer in Philadelphia.

Penn State's law school is in Carlisle, PA, near the center of the state. See http://www.dsl.psu.edu/about/visitus.cfm

UPenn's law school is in Philadelphia, on the eastern edge of the state. See http://www.law.upenn.edu/visitus.html

Maybe I should just feel dumb for even reading, let alone responding here, but it's like the XKCD comic "Someone is wrong on the Internet!" My geek roots betray me. Oh, and I used to live near Philly, so I'm not just spouting off nonsense. And, I still backed up my comments with actual sources.

As far as their respective rankings, look it up yourself - Google is your Friend(tm). The comments above aren't trustworthy.

damn, cardozo girls are kind of fiiiiine. their guys all look like they're 12 though.

Hmm... what Fordham/Dozo fight at the after party? I was there and I don't remember that... maybe I was too drunk. Make love, not war.

Also, the "only top 10% get biglaw jobs" thing certainly doesn't hold true anymore, and USNWR sucks. Talk to Emory undergrad about their drop a few years back when the Dean refused to provide them with certain student financial information he deemed irrelevant and intrusive.
