Everybody here over 45, with an OHLS LLB, or who has been out more that 10 years, or has a settled position doing something acceptably remunerative, regardless of how long it's been since you stopped regurgitating (sorry, graduated), put up your right hand if you can think of one valid reason to bother paying OHLS anything to issue you a piece of paper that has York U on it in bigger letters – oops, sorry, that says you can call yourself a Junior Dick(head) – other than it's somehow more prestigious because it uses the same questionable Latin that would appear on what one gets from the School of Law and Bowling Alley Management in Effigy, S.D.
Or some place closer to Pioneer Village.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
Maybe the change is needed for recent graduates for the reason I've heard: the alleged perception by potential foreign employers that the still wet-behind-the ears degree holder is nothing more than a snot-nosed kid barely 5 years removed from high school .
Well, yeah, but my excuse would have been that law school starts and ends during a hay-fever season and the OHLS campus was, then, in the middle of nothing. And it was too cold to spend the entire day in the Ice Palace.
By the way – those of us 45 and older may remember a line from a 10CC song. That line might be an answer, but if it is there are cheaper solutions.
