Before 2008 universities treated law schools as cash cows. It was not uncommon for a tier-2 or tier-3 school to open up a law school to make some money for the rest of the place. (Incidentally, the role has now been taken by schools of pharmacy.)

Where is the interview with a law school dean of a non-top-10-school, i.e. with a person who continues to perpetuate the misery?
