Tom Cooley LS: 4 Campuses Too Many

This video is a joke.  Thank you, Tipster!  Only one alumna.... only one.  And bunches of students talking about how ready they feel.  Gag!

  1. Some non-substantive critique of the video. A woman who is a graduate of a college is an alumna.

  2. I'll change that. Thanks! I'm living in a genderless world.

  3. What's even more hilarious is that the video was put together by amateurs who played some footage mirrored for some reason.

    Check out 1:41 in the video. Now compare it to 4:41.

    Notice how the same guy's mole and lazy eye somehow switch sides of his face and the books in the background neatly reverse order? That's because they reversed the footage. Perhaps there was some reason for doing so; I just find it hilariously amateurish.

  4. A bunch of used car salespeople.

  5. Did someone acually tout one of the campuses as the "newest and greenest in Southeast MI?" You know there are too many law schools when there are subcaegories for SE Michigan.

  8. Someone needs to save this video and call some of these students in a year or two. Then re-mix the video with the updated information.

  9. I love the practice areas for the alumnae in this video: criminal defense, debt, and family law with a little con law thrown in. If the best they could do is shitlaw, you know that shithole's alumni are in real trouble.

    My doc review project is littered with Cooley, Wayne, and U of D alumni.

  11. By the way, if you do a Google search for two of the alumni (alumnae? alumnot?) in the video, you will learn something interesting about their relationship to Cooley. Natalie Alane & Mary Cartier.

  12. Where does Cooley get all this damn money? I mean, I understand thousands and thousands of students go, but...four campuses? Are there that many Cooley grads donating millions of dollars?

    I don't get it.

  13. "Where does Cooley get all this damn money?"

    I would guess most of it comes courtesy of US tax payers.

    According to a Google search, the total enrollment of Cooley is 3600 students. Probably most of those students are eligible to sign on the dotted line and get $20k a year in guaranteed student loans.

    So that's a potential revenue stream in the tens of millions of dollars a year, more than enough to pay for 4 campuses as well as plenty of fat cat administrators and law professors.

  14. Something good to say about Cooley:
    1) Their grads are tenacious about defending their school.

    Something bad to say about Cooley:
    1) Three professors at my school were also listed as Cooley professors. I never heard of them taking off to teach at Cooley. They never seemed to be at the Cooley except on paper.

    2) Their school has had a bad rep for a long time about a lot of things. Unfortunately, it has little to do with their quasi open admissions.

  15. "We want our students to graduate and to practice law."

    Which is why you have such a horrendous attrition rate?! In the final analysis, TTTThoma$ M. Cooley Law $chool is the biggest joke in the entire law school industry. The school is such a piece of trash, even cockroaches and rats avoid the decrepit pile.

  16. First commenter here again. I should say something substantive. The propaganda here is so slick that if I didn't know what Cooley was, I fear that I would have been taken in. They know how to press the right buttons. Notice how much they lean on the "We're not like other law schools, we offer practical training. Angle" That and they talk alot about jobs, either getting on or preparing for one. They know what their reputation is and are trying to defuse it. They also appeal to the perennial student desire for cool clubs at one campus and the law school student's desire to be amoungst judges and the like at another.

    That professor who said that Cooley had the greenest campus in Southeast Michigan must have realized how rediculous such a statement is. Are there really that many Law Schools is SE Michigan?

  17. A Cooley education is worthless in my opinion. I started at Cooley in Sept, 2005. By the time I graduated three years later, 75% of my class was gone (kicked out, dropped out, transferred out).

    I graduated in the top third of my class and passed the bar thanks to Barbri. I remain unemployed two years after graduation. Cooley has provided absolutely no help to me in finding a job.

    Avoid Cooley at all costs!

  18. LESSON ONE: IF YOU GO TO COOLEY AND PAY ANYTHING MORE THAN THE APPLICATION COST, YOU ARE AUTOMATICALLY TOO STUPID TO BE A LAWYER.

  19. What? The Auburn Hills campus is 67 acres? Who cares? You're not running a cattle farm . . . .

    Oh . . . . Nevermind.

  20. The dumbest person I ever met was a Cooley grad. i.e. Melissa Pope.

    The Michigan Bar is falling apart cause of Cooley fucktards.

  21. The "most technologically advanced law school facility in all of Southeast Michigan"???!!! Really, little Cooley is more advanced than the University of Michigan Law School in Ann Arbor???!!!

    What a joke!
