As part of the Law School Admission Council initiative, Discover Law, the Indiana University Maurer School of Law is sponsoring a program geared to high school students and freshmen and sophomores in college on Saturday, February 13, 2010. The purpose of this program is to provide information to minority students who are interested in studying law. This is part of the law school's continuing effort to increase the representation of minorities in the legal profession.
The program will provide workshops and an opportunity for students to ask questions of law professors, admissions officers and current law students. In past years we have had approximately 10-15 different law schools send representatives to this event to talk with prospective students.
The program is free and open to the public. For our own planning purposes, however, we ask students to preregister on our web site at www.law.indiana.edu/minoritylawday.
Please make this information available to interested students and encourage their attendance. If you have questions, please contact me or Pat Clark at the number below.
