Overheard at a party recently during a conversation between the host and a guest:
“The Iowa Law School's entering class has dropped from 203 three years ago to 94 this year? That's a drop of a whopping 55 percent,” the host said.
“Wow! This means Iowa taxpayers are going to be saving millions and millions of dollars as a result of this amazing reduction in law student enrollment,” the guest responded.
“Have some more tea,” the Mad Hatter said.
“Don't mind if I do,” the March Hare responded.
