The University of Louisville's Louis D. Brandeis School of Law is ranked #18 in The National Jurist's "Best Value Law Schools".

In its September 2009 issue, the magazine identified 65 law schools that are both affordable and prepare students well to compete in today's job market. The criteria included tuition, employment statistics, and bar passage rates. 

 

 

On April 2, sophomores from Louisville's Central High School visited the University of Louisville's Brandeis School of Law to learn more about the law school experience. Students toured the campus, talked with admissions counselors, and met with law students and law faculty. The students were able to sit in on Torts and Property Law classes and hear Oral Arguments from current law students.

Central High School Magnet Career Academy offers a law & government program, and students in this program have opportunities to visit courts, law offices and the Brandeis School of Law.

 

A Business Associations Blog blog post notes that UCC Law bloggers Jennifer Martin, Kristen David Adams, Robyn Meadows, Marie Reilly, and Keith Rowley credit University of Louisville Dean Jim Chen with getting them started.

Chen's use of blogs as a means of promoting UofL's Brandeis School of Law are praised in the piece: http://www.businessassociationsblog.com/lawandbusiness/comments/new_ucc_blog/.

The preview events will explain the admission process, answer financial aid questions, and provide insight on the study of law. Those attending will be able to talk with current law students both during a tour and during a panel. There will also be the opportunity to sit-in a law school class.
