I went to a for-profit law school and it is not a "scam" as the article suggests. The law school described itself as the school of last resort for those wanting to go to law school but not able to get into more exclusive schools. They would take almost anyone into the program, but the grading was rigorous: 1/3 flunked out the first year, 1/3 flunked out over the course of the program, so only 1/3 of entering students graduated. At least they were given the opportunity to try. The problem identified in the article is not the for-profit schools. It is rational for private enterprise to respond to government incentives. The problem is the excessive government incentives. There are too many lawyers, so the government should not be subsidizing legal educations. That is the solution. By the way, my for-profit law school has a four-year part-time night program so I worked as a paralegal to pay for my tuition. I only took out a small loan to take time off to study for and take the bar exam, which I passed on the first try.
