The list is based on an evaluation of long-term employability made by Harrison Barnes, a legal recruitment specialist. The University of Virginia is third, followed by New York University (4th), Columbia (5th), the University of Chicago (6th), University of Pennsylvania (7th) and Yale (8th).
Coddled
A release put out about the ranking highlights the low ranking of Yale, saying: ‘Although Yale has habitually reserved the top spot in many annual law school rankings by various publications, it fell to eighth on this list because of a perception Barnes has observed (that many in the legal community harbor) that some Yale graduates are not as employable as those from other top schools because of ego, a sense of entitlement, and an expectation of being coddled’.
