  • By Stanley Green
    E Stanley Gardner Law school dropout By Stanley Green E Stanley Gardner Law School dropout Erle Stanley Gardner (July 17, 1989 – March 11, 1970) was an American lawyer and author of detective stories best known for Perry Mason. Erle Stanley Gardner attended Valparaiso University Law School in Indiana for one month where he was suspended as he pursued his career in boxing. 1911 Erle passed the bar exam as a self-taught attorney. 1921 Erle opened his own law firm Sheridan, Orr, Drapeau and Gardner in Ventura, CA. (Wikipedia) College dropout Let’s contrast Erle Stanley Gardner college dropout to his counterpart peer colleagues who have graduated from law school. Who do you think should have the higher education? According to the novel Perry Mason it appears that Erle as a college dropout and self-taught lawyer is far smarter. As a matter of fact Perry Mason has become the blueprint for each criminal defense lawyer that has graduated from law school. Many professional judges, prosecutors and criminal defense lawyers have watched each episode to hone his or her legal skills to conduct criminal trials. Erle is in fact a college dropout. Sonia Marie Sotomayor Sonia Marie Sotomayor has testified under oath during her congressional hearing to vet her appointment by President Obama that Perry Mason has truly inspired her to pursue a law profession. In other words our U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice has been inspired by the novel written by Erle Stanley Gardner law school college dropout. What message does this send to our kids? If a lawyer drops out of law school and writes a detective story to become rich and famous is worthy of inspiration as Supreme Court Justice.
