[blindlaw] [blind law] online LLM

[Norman, Gary C. (CMS/OSORA)]

I would be pleased to discuss my experience.


I did recently complete my L.L.M. at Am. U. Washington College of Law. I did my L.L.M. in the "traditional" classroom.


Despite that there are more and more schools with on-line degrees, including entire legal educational courses of study or classes thereof, my sense is that law schools are concerned about "on-line learning."


When I commenced my L.L.M., and now as an alumnus, I have suggested on-line class attendance options.


Regarding increasing on-line course options or programs, an obsticle that law schools may confront is ABA accreditation.

I've been reading all the recent posts on this listserv about online j.d.'s. Currently, I work for the feds and am licensed in Virginia. I'm thinking about getting an l.l.m. I googled and there are several schools that offer online l.l.m.'s, the only one coming to mind being Boston University (which if memory serves they have a pretty good reputation as a law school in general.) Has anyone out there received an l.l.m. via distance learning? For those of you who have an l.l.m., would you recommend the traditional classroom or is distance learning a viable option?

Thanks.

Mike
