This is the culmination of years of hostility from Biondi towards the law school. As someone who has been on the faculty for decades, I can attest to everything in Dean Clark’s letter as being true and...

Wow, can’t people just get canned without throwing a hissy fit. You would think attorneys would be better than that. But it seems like most of them are no better than other people who are given too...

Deandra, I can’t attest to any of the facts alleged by Clark. But assuming they are true, would it be better to remain silent, given that they appear likely to substantially affect the well-being of...

could the “SLU LAW Prof” who seems to know me so well identify himself or herself—or just call me—618-236-2221—i think anonymous posts lack credibility Tom Keefe
