New Initiative Builds Diversity Pipeline to Law School

by KENT D. LOLLIS AND FRANK BURTNETT , April 16, 2009

Categories:

LSAC encourages Diverse readers to learn more about the types of student activities and services that the directory aims to profile, then share the information with those colleagues and friends who may be engaged in diversity efforts that should be included. Once the PDD is fully operational in the summer of 2009, we further encourage taking the next step and informing students and others who might benefit from the information presented in the PPD.

There are many prospective law students and future lawyers in your institutions and communities. Help them by lighting the noble path to law school.

— Kent D. Lollis is the executive director for diversity initiatives at the Law School Admission Council. Dr. Frank Burtnett is the president of Education Now, an educational consulting firm in Springfield, Va., who serves as project manager for the Pipeline Diversity Directory. E-mail PDD@lsac.org to contact the PDD and learn more about the initiative.
