Minority Law and Research Institute

Program Overview

The Minority Law and Research Institute activities will further enhance the mission of the Foundation by having a major impact on the educational future of the students participating in the program and hopefully will help increase the number of African-American law school candidates.

Students participating in the program will be exposed to concepts, instructional strategies, and research projects in the legal profession.

Instructor and administrator will spend two days in preparation for the institute.  And additional two will be spent at the conclusion of the institute for evaluation and assessment.
