THE WORKSHOP will address minority and diversity issues related to law school and the application process. The focus of the Workshop is to help minority and diversity students address their current and future law school applications. LGBT and non-traditional students will also benefit from this program. We hope that this program will be a step toward bridging the law school gap that currently exists for minority and diversity students in the New England region. The event will be held in the Blake Law Center and lunch will be provided.
