Call for Change in Legal Education

The Association of American Law Schools, practicing attorneys and judges, law school deans and faculty, journalists and scholars continue to call for dramatic new models for the preparation of lawyers for the practice of law. But changing ingrained and longstanding approaches is a daunting proposition for even the best law schools. Our founding faculty come from those leading institutions and were attracted to the UC Irvine School of Law in large part because of our clean slate and the once-in-a-lifetime chance to rethink and transform legal education.
