Diversity is a fundamental necessity to achieving excellence at UofL Law. We must promote differing ideas and a variety of solutions through the inclusion of individuals from all backgrounds, races, genders, sexualities, socio-economics and spiritualities.

UofL Law is committed to the diversity of our students, faculty and staff who join together in the common goal of preparing legal champions. We strive to eliminate discrimination, marginalization, and exclusion based on race, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, socioeconomic status, disability, religion, national origin or military status. Our goal is a climate of inclusiveness with principles of mutual respect, fairness and social justice that enables everyone to develop to his or her fullest potential.

The Central High School Partnership, a UofL Signature Partnership, is an effort between Louisville's Central Hgih School and the Brandeis School of Law to promote diversty in the law profession.

UofL Law's Diversity Committee plays a major role in expanding the culture of inclusiveness at the University. Established in 1992 as an ad hoc committee the group evolved into a premiere University organization that tackles hot-button issues such as affirmative action,  gay marriage, the death penalty, the separation of church and state, racial profiling, voting rights, and reproductive rights. Please visit our Diversity Forum Series to read more about the history and activities of this influential group and see their program schedule.
