For the third consecutive year, U.S. News & World Report placed �鶹��ý’s in the top 25% of law schools throughout the nation for trial advocacy, coming in at No. 47.
��
The ranking tied �鶹��ý with ten other elite institutions such as George Washington University, University of Notre Dame and William & Mary Law School.
��
�鶹��ý Law also moved up in overall rankings, which places it in a higher tier than a year ago, at No. 146.
��
Law schools were evaluated on a number of criteria, such as job placement and bar passage rates.
��
“These two categories are the true measure of a law school’s quality,” says Dean Charles H. Rose, III.
��
Other factors considered included faculty resources; the achievements of entering students; and opinions of law schools, lawyers and judges on overall program quality.
��
“It’s been a banner year for us,” says Rose. “It’s very gratifying to see entities like U.S. News & World Report recognize we are training ethical, competent and compassionate attorneys.”
