An Inclusive Litany
4/1/99
A former student at the Western State University School of Law
is suing the school, claiming that admissions staff should have known
she'd flunk out. 45-year-old Roya Saghafi of Redondo Beach,
California, who holds an engineering degree from her native Iran, was
assured she could overcome the challenges posed by her low LSAT scores
and her limited English-speaking skills. The lawsuit alleges that one
of the school's internal documents predicts a 10 percent success rate
for students with comparable LSAT scores.
