I imagine "pre-law" is just some combination of philosophy and political science.

quote:Chafin played in nine of 13 games the following season, including the opener. He was charged with marijuana possession in March and suspended by Briles immediately for spring practice before being reinstated to the team. This is one of my favorite things about this whole mess. Rape/beat on women all you want, but my god if you smoke a joint there will be consequences.

Still don't see anything wrong that happened, and when Clinton loses the election this will magically go away for some reason.. weird... it can't be that it was made up completely by the Clintons, could it? I'm just asking corn fried beef questions and watching young'ns play football for food and gas money.

No, there are pre-law programs at state schools in GA, at least. Just like "Pre-med" programs. They're worthless on their own, but it's generally a program designed to prepare you for progressing to law school. I don't understand the hostility towards it ITT, it's not more or less valuable than any other piece of poo poo liberal arts degree. edit: It's not "a degree" it's a program. I don't know what undergrad degree you'd actually get from going through the program, like I said it's probably a combination of poly-sci and philosophy.

Pre-law is a dumb and bad major for practical reasons. Law schools are inundated with applications from pre-law and poli sci applicants. You have to really work hard to stand out and get accepted. I had a degree in aerospace engineering. I was different (strange? weird?) enough from the other applicants that I got into a good law school pretty easily, even with a good (not excellent) undergrad GPA.

It limits you for the purpose of being able to brag (which lol)

It's similar with med school, like about half my class had degrees in biology or biochemistry. About 35% had a degree in some other science, and the rest were in humanities or business. I got two degrees, one in philosophy and one in physics and they were much more interested in my philosophy degree. Professional schools now are looking more and more for non-traditional students since poli sci (for law school) or biology (for med school) are literally all over the place.

And it just got worse http://www.ourdailybears.com/2016/10/28/13460898/wsj----baylor-details-horrifying-alleged-sexual-assaults-by-football-players quote:The sexual-violence scandal at Baylor University that cost its celebrated football coach his job involved 17 women who reported sexual or domestic assaults involving 19 players, including four alleged gang rapes, since 2011, according to Baylor regents.

Also if the allegation in the Wall Street Journal that Briles knew about one of the incidents and didn't report it to the police or the school is true, I honestly doubt he'll ever coach again. Even if this whole process ends without him getting show-caused, that's way too toxic. I also have question for people better versed in insurance and university administration than me. if a university knowing hires an individual with a documented history of ignoring sexual assault for such a prominent position would that affect the rates for the liability insurance most schools buy? Because if I was an underwriter, I would be very very wary of being on the hook for Briles in the future.
