When the Bar Exam Loses Sight of Humanity
Description
During the New York Bar Exam, a test-taker suffered a massive heart attack. EMTs performed CPR and used a defibrillator—while proctors refused to stop the test. Students who tried to help were told they would not receive extra time.
Robin Frazer Clark and Lester Tate call this incident “disturbing” and question whether the bar exam has gone too far, prioritizing rigid rules over human compassion.
This clip comes from our full interview with Professor Ian Holloway, where we examine law, justice, and the values that must guide our profession.
