Did Uga Eat The Grades At UGA Law?

Well, it’s the middle of June, and it seems that some law students are still waiting for their grades. As we know from past discussion of the issue, this is a fairly common practice. The only problem with it is that it keeps law students fiending for their last grade like a crack addict searching frantically for his last rock.

The worst part of this situation is the fact that the grade delay may be keeping these law students from becoming gainfully employed. The legal job market may allegedly be on the rise, but when law students can’t do more than offer two-fifths of their updated transcripts to prospective employers, you can take a wild guess as to where their résumés will be headed.

So, while the professors are taking their sweet time grading their exams and possibly costing you a job, your classmates are banding together to try to figure out how to resolve the problem. First, they go to the Student Bar Assocation. Then, when they don’t like the answer they get from the SBA (“there’s a grading deadline, I’m sure we’ll get our grades soon”), they go straight to the source, the administration. Finally, when the administration’s response isn’t good enough (“it’ll be okay, you’ll get your grades when you get your grades”), they come to Above the Law. And we’re happy to help.

Hey, University of Georgia School of Law , we’re looking at you. Where are your grades?

We finished exams on May 18th (with a start date of May 2nd). Many of us are still lacking grades. I myself am missing 3/5 grades. I am currently in the process of interviewing for clerkships. Over the course of the past two days, I have gotten three phone calls from three different chambers requesting updated grades and ranks. I have interviewed with two of these judges, and one was wanting to schedule interviews. It was obvious from my phone calls that they are going to go with students who have grades/ranks in.

Now normally, I’d side with the law school on this issue (don’t ask me why, I guess just really liked law school). There’s a grading deadline, and most professors sometimes, when they feel like it, if they’re not doing other more exciting things, tend to abide by that deadline. That deadline is usually about one month after final exams have concluded. UGA Law’s finals ended on May 18, so the grading deadline should be right around the corner. Again, in a normal situation, I’d tell this law student to quit the Gollum-esque search for the precious, right along with the bitching.
