Leadership Groups

Civic, education, corporate and legal community leaders have worked for decades to bring a new public law school to California. Together with leading national legal figures, our volunteers have persuaded government and university officials of the need for a top-tier law school for the 21st century, the resources to launch it and the private funds that enabled the successful recruitment of stellar founding faculty and inaugural students.
