University Law Schools with Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion offices and statements
Investigations
Number of states: 24
Number of law schools: 72
SUMMARY
The following is a list of universities law programs that still appear to have diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) pages or a rebranded site, and/or anti-racist or social justice statements that are still publicly available. The absence of a law school does not mean it has stopped DEI practices, and schools may be added or removed over time as policies and priorities change. This list will be updated over time.
To learn more about the American Bar Association (ABA) and schools that currently appear to be implementing DEI into curriculum, click here.
