Ashcroft, firearms ammunition and products liability, California's "three strikes" law, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and trial jury reform.

Career prospects

According to "Official Guide to ABA-Approved Law Schools", 95.1% of Loyola students were employed 9 months after graduation.^[6] The 2008 U.S. News & World Report survey "America's Best Graduate Schools" states that 62.7% of Loyola students were employed at graduation, and their median starting salary was $70,000 for private sector attorneys and $54,750 for government attorneys.^[7]

In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Dean David Burcham said the school doesn't guarantee that its students will obtain jobs. He says it is problematic that big firms only interview the top of the class, "but that's the nature of the employment market; it's never been different."^[8] The same Wall Street Journal article noted that "[a]n anonymous writer called Loyola 2L, purportedly a student at Loyola Law School, who claims the school wasn't straight about employment prospects, has been beating a drum of discontent around the Web in the past year that's sparked thousands of responses, and a fan base."^[9] The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) is an international daily newspaper published by Dow Jones & Company in New York City, New York, USA, with Asian and European editions, and a worldwide daily circulation of more than 2 million as of 2006, with 931,000 paying online subscribers. ...
