Yes! Yes! It would be a great idea to have joint classes between JD and MBA students (Northwestern Law already does this, I believe), and we could have other classes that combined grad or professional students in other disciplines with JD students. Part of the goal is to teach JDs that they need to learn the cultures and lingo of other disciplines in order to be able to give better legal advice, and part of the goal is to teach JDs that law is part of problem-solving but rarely solves problems all on its own. Bravo for this suggestion! Yes! Yes! Yes!
