Law school bans award to terrorist case lawyer

You can't defend CUNY Law on the grounds of its alleged mission. There are tons of people in every good law school in the country who wish to, and do, pursue a wide variety of public interests careers.

The problem with CUNY is the absolutely absysmal quality of ITS students, not the nature of its students career interests. Average LSATs and undergraduate GPAs are among the worst in the country, as are Bar pass rates.

I beleive that poor people should have quality representation -- and don't think that, a la CUNY, they should only get the absolute WORST students to represent them.
