Brooklyn Law School Summary
The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.
Brooklyn Law School (BLS) is a law school located in Downtown Brooklyn, New York City. In that year, the university decided to close the law school, but faculty and alumni bought it and Brooklyn Law became an independent institution. BLS produces four legal journals: the Brooklyn Law Review, the Brooklyn Journal of International Law, the Journal of Law and Policy, and the new Brooklyn Journal of Corporate, Financial and Commercial Law, the first writing competition for which was held in the spring semester of 2006. According to the Leiter Report, a compendium of law school rankings published by Brian Leiter, Brooklyn Law School places 31st for quality of students and a runner-up for top 30 for faculty.
