Tulane Law School drops the hammer: get back here

[flowomo]

Ordered Back to Louisiana

The date is set. A message sent to all Tulane University Law School students last week made it clear that they are expected back in New Orleans in January. They will not be permitted to remain elsewhere as visiting students for the spring semester, and Tulane will not help them transfer.

“If you all are going to have an institution around to award you a degree that is worth the paper it is written on, Tulane needs to bring back in the spring both most of its normal revenues and most of its students,” read the letter from Gary Roberts, deputy dean of the law school.

In an interview, Roberts said that Tulane “needs its customers back” to keep the law school afloat financially, and also to instill confidence in students and faculty members that Tulane hopes to draw in the future.

1. The law school at my own University took a bunch of Tulane

students in for the fall. I hope it will be safe for them to return by then. At the rate things are going, I am not so sure.
