The US News T14 Is Dead, and Has Been Replaced by the T11 (or, if You Prefer, the T10 with 11 Members)

This article employs technical, quantitative analysis of US News law school rankings with minimal ideological framing. The author uses data visualization and methodological explanation to argue that the T14 grouping no longer holds under revised ranking criteria. While the author expresses a view that people place 'far too much weight' on rankings, the tone remains analytical rather than advocacy-oriented. The piece is structured around empirical observation (comparing ranking regimes) rather than advocating for institutional reform or ideological positions.
