- Distinguish lawful educational supervision from encroachment on the Court’s Bar-admission power
- Both functions belong exclusively to every school without regulation
- Agency educational powers necessarily include unlimited Bar-admission control
- The Court has no admission authority
- All internships are constitutionally forbidden
