Default Re: How much is a degree from a low level law school worth? (and more

[ QUOTE ]
Here's a topic that seems to be popular among my female colleagues: is there a bias against women in big firms?

All the stats show that, although females and males attend law school at roughly the same rate, there are many more male partners than female partners. Why is that?

The fact that the time for females to become elected partner happens to coincide with the prime child birthing years leads more females than males to abandon the 2000+ hours to concentrate on children. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Can that be changed?

I'd be more than happy to answer this, but this is such a big detour from the original thread, I think we need a new thread.
