Stanford's Plan for 3D Legal Education

Stanford Law School has an enterprising plan:
Stanford Law School today [Nov. 28, 2006] announced changes that are transforming the JD into a three-dimensional degree program that combines the study of other disciplines with team-oriented, problem-solving techniques and expanded clinical training that enables students to represent clients and litigate cases—before they graduate.
This plan, announced months ago, sounds excellent to me. Indeed, it sounds exciting and alluring: it offers the prospect of successfully combining interdisciplinary (and "theoretical") education with practical training.
