All of the best programs are in DC? Why am I suspicious of these rankings?

George Mason? American? I attended the Seton Hall Evening program and think both SHU, Rutgers and even St. Johns and Brooklyn Law are likely better than George Mason for heaven's sake. Most of my the people I attended SHU with now hold senior counsel positions at law firms and in-house. Any evening pogram in the New York City area is by default a good program by virtue of the opportunities the area provides. Moreover, clients consistently are amazed by my having attended law school duing the evenings. The only folks who seem to look down upon it are the younger Associates and many snobbish law firm partners but frankly I could care less what they think. Many thanks,
