Working Papers from eSocialSciences

Abstract: There is a profile that law students are expected to fit – proficient in English, assertive, capable of dancing circles around most people in terms of playing on words or logical reasoning for instance. When people who do not fit the profile enter law school, they find themselves dealing with a set-up that was not designed keeping them in mind.
