Stanley Chess is an American legal commentator and former bar review course executive.
Chess was Editor-in-Chief of the Cornell Daily Sun during the 1968-1969 campus unrest and was a member of the Quill and Dagger society. Following the takeover of Willard Straight Hall, Chess wrote an influential editorial entitled, "Friday Night - Ugly and Stupid" which called for the equal application of law to both black and white students following an episode where white students "joustled" then President James A. Perkins.[1] He graduated in 1969 and received a law degree in 1972.
Upon graduation, Chess organized courses to assist law students to prepare for bar examinations. He became an executive in Barbri. After selling his interests, he started a new venture called Legal America, Inc., which operates a number of law-related websites including, lawschool.com, lawcentral.com, lawtv.com, chesslaw.com and a legal blog called En Passant.
Chess then founded an alumni association for the Cornell Daily Sun, financing $145,000 of the acquisition cost of an office building for that publication.[2]
