Georgetown University has earned the top spot in a ranking of part-time law school programs by U.S. News and World Report.
The publication will release all of its rankings later this month, but offered a sneak peek at the top part-time programs, TaxProf Blog reports. The top five are:
1) Georgetown University
2) George Washington University
3) Fordham University
4) American University
5) George Mason University
Fordham is already touting its third-place ranking for its evening law school program in a press release.

This might or might not prove to be a positive development. Perhaps “What’s on your part-time mind?” will become a common question in law school and practice.

In related news, I was rated #1 associate at my firm. Should I mention that I am the only associate at my firm?
