I'm not really worried about that. I am pretty much (unlike many of my colleagues) assured of a very good income after graduation. While I'll take free money, slaving away at the PD's office isn't in the cards for me.
I do respect the job those folks do. One of our divorce clients was recently represented by the federal Public Defender who did a hell of a good job --our guy is a minority and got a hung jury on a drug charge -- I know, I didn't know that ever happened in Oklahoma either.
