October 12: Concretely Transforming the Legal Profession at All Levels

Substantively transforming the legal profession requires innovative and responsive measures aimed at addressing issues of access and diversity within the profession. Such efforts need to tackle a myriad of different hurdles, institutional and otherwise, that people traditionally marginalized within the legal profession - including Black people, people of color, women, and first generation law students - face. 

Fordham Law School alumni are at the forefront of developing and implementing cutting-edge yet practical strategies to achieve the substantive transformation of the legal profession. 

Join us for this panel discussion, Concretely Transforming the Legal Profession at All Levels, where we are joined by three trailblazing Fordham Law alumni who are putting their time, money, and networks to work to transform the legal profession and to ensure that meaningful opportunities exist for members of traditionally marginalized communities to progress and succeed - from networks recent graduates can tap into to opportunities for practitioners to advance their careers.
