Valparaiso University law school closing admissions, potentially looking for new home
VALPARAISO — The Valparaiso University Law School brought rumors to an end Thursday afternoon when it gathered students and staff to announce it is no longer financially sustainable and will be making significant changes — including not taking new admissions next year.
Other options being considered include teaming up with another law school and/or "relocating the law school to another geographic market with perceived greater demand for legal education," according to the school.
The school blamed the changes on a decline in student enrollment experienced by other law schools across the nation, and financial challenges as a result of lessening demand for graduates in the job market.

Valpo is a good school. The law school was first rate, at one time.
