...renovation, which took three weeks to complete, was an attempt to address students' dissatisfaction with the Law School athletic facilities. In a survey conducted by McKinsey and Co., students rated their satisfaction with athletic facilities a 1.5 on a scale of one to seven on average...
...jobs nobody wanted; now they're just as likely to be the high flyers with the dot-com dream jobs. Not only that, it's suddenly no longer a surprise to find Indians in the pantheon of (thinking) America's celebrities. From publisher Sonny Mehta and McKinsey & Co. managing director Rajat Gupta to alternative health guru Deepak Chopra and Academy Award-nominated director M.

The McKinsey & Co. study has shown that HLS is simply trying to do too much--and has made no one happy in the process. The staff suggests further expenses and an expanded faculty. A simpler, quicker, cheaper alternative exists, however, and it is even spoken of in law school circles elsewhere: Cut the class size...
