A law school where value matters

Enriching our Legacy of Excellence and Value

Graduates of the University of Kansas School of Law are everywhere — in courtrooms, in boardrooms, in government agencies, in nonprofits and other public interest organizations. They offer strategic legal advice and representation for clients, help entrepreneurs launch businesses, work at all levels of government, serve as judges, shape the laws of our country, and devote their time and expertise to pro bono service. Lawyers uphold the rule of law and ensure that individuals have access to justice.

KU Law excels at preparing students to be responsible and dedicated members of the legal profession. And we do so at a price that allows students to pursue their education without the burden of massive debt. We are a law school that enjoys a proud tradition of world-class teaching and scholarship, academic excellence, experiential learning and community service. The knowledge and skills our students gain during three years in Green Hall form the foundation of their legal careers and propel them to reach their professional goals, whatever they might be.

With more than 8,000 graduates working in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and dozens of foreign countries, KU Law boasts a diverse and successful alumni network that extends far beyond the Midwest. Our alumni shine in leadership roles and showcase their remarkable talents in a variety of different industries. KU Law graduates are making a difference every single day around the world.

By supporting our desire to offer more student scholarships, more resources to support faculty and more funding for facility enhancement, you will make it possible for us to attract and retain the next generation of law professionals who strive for justice and fairness for all. More than that, you will help us continue to offer an outstanding legal education at a reasonable rate of tuition, which furthers our legacy of excellence and value.

PARTNERING WITH US

Now is the time to make a transformative gift to the School of Law to address the following priorities:

Providing support for scholarships and funds to enrich student learning

At KU Law, we are committed to the success and well-being of our students. They stand out not only academically, but also in terms of leadership and community service. Additional scholarships will help KU Law continue to attract top students from all backgrounds and enable them to participate in rich student experiences and extracurricular opportunities. Private support is essential to allow us to offer more law students excellent training while helping them avoid crushing student debt.

Growing academic excellence through resources for faculty

Attracting and retaining stellar faculty members is crucial to KU Law’s success. They inspire students to be leaders in their chosen fields, their communities and the world. The relationships between students and faculty are the heart of KU Law and make the learning environment unique. Law professors are open and accessible to students — and truly dedicated to teaching, both in and out of the classroom. Additional support will empower KU Law to hold on to its best teachers and recruit outstanding new faculty, which is essential to the school’s future.

Creating improved learning and collaboration spaces through support for building enhancements

Current day Green Hall is now nearly five decades old and is in need of repair and updating. A lot has changed in those five decades – the way professors teach, the way students learn and the role of the library in legal education. As KU Law takes its place as one of the great public law schools in the U.S., it deserves a facility that matches the excellence of its faculty, students and alumni. Support for building updates and possibly a new facility will ensure that KU Law continues its upward trajectory.
