Wouldn't it be better (and cheaper) to forge better connections with the faculties that offer knowledge and wisdom to the legal community? Legal scholars do a remarkable job pulling humanities, social science, computer science, and engineering knowledge into law schools. But everyone agrees that it could be done better. As someone who produced legal scholarship just outside the walls of NYU law school for years yet rarely got invited in, I have to say that we should all do much more to engage.
