Pros

They pay their adjuncts better than other DC institutions. Fair amount of control over courses taught. Limited oversight and collegial colleagues.

Cons

You still are an adjunct. Relatively invisible within the institution. There is no real hope of converting your position into a tenure track job.

Pros

The intern coordinator is super-flexible, supportive, and willing to help. She often sets up a lot of perks for the interns. The attorneys are friendly, very smart, and looking to engage you as much as possible. Overall, very laid-back and comfortable environment.

Cons

The quality of investigative interns can seriously hurt the attorneys and their work from semester to semester, but they have more students on hand during the school year as well.

Pros

Great resources and connections; situated in a major city; interesting students, esp. at the graduate level; reputation suggests expertise and positive contributions in one's given field

Cons

Not the most cutting edge in terms of technology or infrastcture -- however the new business school is nice. Undergrads seem entitled and preppy; arcane Jesuit valuess
