Debate:'Those Who Wish to Practise Law Should Not Study Law at University' - a podcast by Cambridge University

Studying law at University is not a vital prerequisite for a distinguished career in legal practice. But those advocating the non-law route into the profession may undervalue the benefits of the law degree, both for those intending to practise and those not so intending.

This important debate examined the arguments on Wednesday 27th February 2013 at the Faculty of Law, University of Cambridge. Justice of The Supreme Court, The Right Hon Lord Sumption spoke for the motion. Professor Graham Virgo of the Faculty spoke against. The debate was be chaired by Sir Patrick Elias, Lord Justice of Appeal.
