Equity, Diversity & Inclusion

Everyone is Welcome at Minnesota Law

At Minnesota Law, we celebrate each student, faculty, and staff members’ unique contribution to our diverse and strong community.

By fostering a diverse, inclusive, and unbiased environment through regular events and programming, Minnesota Law strives to ensure that individuals from all cultures and backgrounds feel included and welcome when engaging with our community. From our annual MLK Convocation—which addresses equity and diversity in the legal profession and judicial systems—and student-led initiatives and groups, to our community bookclub committed to diverse books and authors and our summer Pre-Law Scholars Program that prepares underserved students for admission to law school, Minnesota Law embraces all perspectives that enhance the law school experience.
