To make this happen, those involved in the planning
of the
degree knew that the entire program needed to be different, that they had to
think outside the
box when it came to what was taught, who was accepted, and how it would be funded (the program is 100 percent free for accepted students).
Adriana Linares: If you just have a bunch
of academics sitting in there they are not going to
think outside the
box very far, they are not going to get very far, so again, encouraging anyone who has an interest in what the law schools are doing to go in there and listen in, pitch some ideas, I
think, what more and more law schools need to hear is their alumni saying, «Well, you gave me a law
degree, I earned a law
degree.»
