REFLECTIONS ON LEGAL EDUCATION Roy Stuckey, University of South Carolina School of Law The Opportunity for Legal Education A symposium of the Mercer Law Review November 9, 2007

Attention to clients and values is largely missing from the first year curriculum The experience of students during the first year can be characterized as a moral lobotomy (p. 78)

Our students intellectual development stagnates after the first year because we continue teaching the same lessons using the same methods of instruction

Law schools focus too much on teaching legal doctrine and too little on teaching students how to think and act like members of the legal profession

Most law school graduates are not adequately prepared to represent clients without supervision, and the licensing process is not adequately protecting the public from incompetent new lawyers

Traditional assessment methods of law schools are not valid, they are not reliable, and they are not fair

Legal education is harmful to the emotional and psychological well- being of many law students This harm is unnecessary
