Applying Law rankings - REG_LAW_RANKING_C

This process applies various rankings to law students' records. There are term (LTR), year-long (LYR), and cumulative/class (LCR) rankings. Different rankings will be run for different classes at different times of the academic year. The Law School (Del Kirkpatrick) will always let us know when and which processes to run. 3L class rankings will need to be run as soon as possible after degree conferral in the spring, so that students' final class ranking can be printed on their transcripts. Stephanie Davis usually runs this job, but it can be run by anyone who has Appworx access.
