Most law teachers are lawyers and take time off from their very lucrative jobs to teach. Thus the colleges have to offer them the equivalent, or even more to teach. They often demand anywhere from $140K~$190K per year in a salary. Lawyers from prestigious law firms can demand even more. There are some lawyers who can go into a "big" law firm, work for a handful of years, then go into teaching and make more than in the private sector.
Schools claim its for the "best" lawyers with the most experience but the reality is this:
>Lawyers lobby government over decades
>Lawyers end up holding all the cards and can demand a king's ransom
>Erodes rule of law, as poor people can't afford a real lawyer
>Lawyers then go to schools and demand higher wages to "keep up" with their private sector income
>School caves because they want the prestige and "credentials" that come with pairing with big law firms
>Student on FAFSA hopes to be a lawyer one day
>Lol, lmao even...
>Each student is paying almost the equivalent of a lawyer's salary to learn to be a lawyer
>Professor makes six figures for his "time", almost more than being a lawyer
>Does about 1/5th the workload of being lawyer
>Retires at 67 with a net-worth of at least a few million
tl;dr It's a racket
