    Law school academic support has a rich history of providing opportunity and access to students from historically marginalized groups. Equal justice is achieved through access and access starts with admission to law school, but students still need support. This program will highlight support mechanisms in place for law students from diverse racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds in entering law school, successfully completing law school, and passing the bar exam.

    Papers from this program will be published in University of Maryland Law Journal of Race, Religion, Gender & Class.

    Business meeting held on Friday, January 5 at 7:30 am.
