Pacific McGeorge Affirms Commitment To Diversity

December 14, 2009

Tags: Business & Community, 2009

Pacific McGeorge has joined a group of 30 law schools and law firms as an original signatory to a "Pledge of Change" document that emerged from the 2nd ABA National Conference on the Employment of Lawyers with Disabilities, which took place last summer in Washington, D.C.

The pledge is an affirmation by legal employers, chief legal officers, hiring partners, and law schools of their commitment to diversity, including diversity regarding individuals with mental, physical, and sensory disabilities, in the legal profession.

As a signatory of the document affirming the law school's commitment to diversity, Pacific McGeorge's name appears on the ABA Diversity Honor Roll website: http://www.abanet.org/disability/pledge/signatories.shtml.

Pacific McGeorge stands among the Top 50 law schools in the nation in the diversity rankings of ABA law schools in the 2009 edition of Best Graduate Schools published by the U.S News & World Report.
