Prospective law students, current law students, and law school alumni are eagerly awaiting the release of the 2022 U.S. News Law School Rankings in March. That seems so far away, doesn’t it? Almost excrutiatingly so. What if we told you that we had a preview of those rankings? Sounds great, right? Let us help you scratch that rankings itch.
The methodology used by U.S. News places a 25% weight on law school admissions in the overall ranking. That category is comprised of three separate components, each with a different weight: acceptance rate (2.5%); median undergraduate GPA (10%); and median LSAT (12.5%) (GRE scores omitted for lack of data).
GREELEY and LOVELAND Otis & Bedingfield LLC with offices in Greeley and Loveland has promoted Corey W. Moore to an equity member of the firm.
Moore has been with the firm for five years. Much of his work has been as part of the firm’s transaction team with a focus on business and estate planning.
Corey Moore
He obtained his undergraduate degree from the University of California, Berkeley, and his law degree from Pepperdine University School of Law, where he focused on business, real estate and estate planning.
Moore is a member of the Weld and Larimer County Bar Associations as well as the Colorado Bar Association, including the Trust and Estate and Business Sections.

New Year’s Day is supposed to herald new beginnings, new possibilities, new hopes for all Americans of whatever political stripe. But if the author of an opinion article published in the
Hill in the early hours of 2021 has his way, before long, our country will be back trudging to the beat of the establishment GOP’s drum, because he revealed all Americans need right now is Barack Obama in charge of the Department of Justice. And that’s just the beginning of this guy’s bad ideas, apparently.
Douglas Kmiec, who works as professor emeritus of constitutional law at Pepperdine University School of Law and once worked in the Office of Legal Counsel for Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations, according to his bio, starts by writing that he doesn’t get why these congressmen and senators are causing a fuss about the Electoral College certification, which I wrote about earlier tonight.
