U.S. News law school rankings send shockwaves through St. Thomas law school

According to reports, law students at St. Thomas have been engaged in much teeth-gnashing and hand-flapping after Mitchell was vaulted into Tier 1, Top 100 status by US News.

Pointing to their school's vaunted 96-month history, many St. Thomas students stood in mute shock at the thought of Mitchell students continuing to be turned down for employment opportunities with a flashy new law school ranking fresh on their resumes.

When asked about St. Thomas students' reaction, many Mitchell students were confused and surprised to hear St. Thomas had a law school at all. "I bet their Pope Law class is really hard, though" said 2L Tony Gorgon.

Adding fuel to the fire, a recent video has been unveiled that makes The Stool's staff jealous they didn't think of it first. Brilliant, hilarious, and with perfect comedic pitch, the video is destined to be the best thing produced by St. Thomas this year.
