Dean Morant Talks Diversity

Dean Blake D. Morant spoke to Diverse: Issues in Higher Education about the essentiality of pursuing diversity in legal education. Dean Morant offered his philosophy on how and why institutions should achieve greater diversity: Law schools should look for students whose life experiences and perspectives can contribute to an environment that will better prepare all students to thrive in a more global society. “Any educational milieu has to prepare students for [a global] world, and you cannot do that if the population is homogenous,” he said.
