Description: With Yale and Harvard law schools withdrawing from U.S. News & World Report’s annual law school rankings, others have followed suit.

Guest: Colin Diver, the Charles A. Heimbold, Jr., Professor of Law and Economics Emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania, former Dean of Penn Law School and president of Reed College, 2002 through 2012.  If you enjoy this show, please consider signing up for Slate Plus.
