The UVA Law School has more than 1,100 students, who pay upwards of $40,000 in annual tuition. Turns out that it also has a few creative (and perhaps slightly embittered) artists.
Above the Law, a blog that tracks news and gossip in law schools, recently printed a t-shirt design allegedly worn by third-year law students to intimidate incoming students. "Virginia Law," the shirt reads. "$40,000 a year and no job."
Yesterday, the blog presented another masterpiece: a papier-mâché model of the UVA Law School, made of rejection letters from law firms. This despite a report from the American Bar Association Journal that last year saw a slight jump in the number of hires, following dismal summer associate and full-time offers in 2009. See the model here.
