Law schools brief ~ First law school in Phoenix to open by January 2005. Phoenix, AZ may have its first law school by the first of next year. Chicago-based Sterling Capital Partners hopes to open a new, for-profit institution, tentatively called the Phoenix International School of Law, there by January of 2005. According to [JURIST's Paper Chase] For those of you keeping score, Sterling Capital Partners owns Florida Coastal Law School in Jacksonville FL.  Sterling alos has eyes on Charlotte, NC and reportedly has $315 million to spend on education-related acquisitions.  Gotta wonder if retail law schools are a new business model? 8:28:12 PM    comment []  trackback []
