New York Law School is one stinky toilet. Despite the fact that it is a tier 3 school and provides little in the way of opportunity for its graduates, New York Law School has the audacity to charge one of the highest tuition of any law school in the United States -- higher than even NYU and Columbia!
The dean of the school, Richard Matasar, is a scumbag of the worst kind, making a comfortable living by destroying the lives of naive 21 year olds. (Matasar has a reputation of maximizing profits and endowments, at the expense of students; during his tenure at Chicago-Kent College of Law (1991–96) , while tuition soared, the school’s endowment rose from $5 million to more than $17 million.) As someone else so aptly put it, Matasar takes the hope, optimism, and vulnerability of young people and wipes shit all over it.
One of Matasar's victims recently graduated from the NYLS toilet with over $198,000 of student loan debt. He makes only $48,000 a year, and over 60% of his after-tax income goes to pay for student loans. He is considering suicide and is trying to decide whether bullets or carbon dioxide would be a better way to carry it out.
I suppose going to work for the Legal Options agency could be an option for him, but if he did undertake this "opportunity," he would have to bill 48 hours a week (every week, no holidays or unexpected unemployment) just to make his minimum monthly loan payments. Only then could he even begin to think about paying for such necessities as food, rent, and health insurance.
College grads, be forewarned! When you sign up with Matasar, you sign up with the devil!

Ode To The Valvoline Dean
In the tradition of a Seton Hall dean,Scrub your stats squeaky clean,
Send 'em glossy brochures,
Lots of big firms out there willing to hire,
Milk all you can out of college kids' desire,
And in a few years, they'll cry out:
Doc review!
