N MAY, THE CARNEGIE FOUNDATION issued its latest report on higher education,<br />
Educating Lawyers: Preparation for the Profession of Law. The key message? Teaching legal<br />
doctrine is not enough: teaching skills and values to burgeoning lawyers is critical to training<br />
great practitioners — and central to the future health of the profession and the legal system.<br />
Those of you familiar with Northeastern, know that these ideas have been at the very<br />
heart of our law school program since its inception.<br />
