Law School Diversity Transparency Project
The Law School Diversity Transparency Project concluded in the Spring 2021 semester, but UIC Law is still committed to combatting systemic racism within, and external to, the Law School. The Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion will continue to engage in projects that support this core value and support all members of the UIC Law community.
