Law School Organizes Lobby Days

By Ishaan Seth

As part of an ongoing movement for a more diversified faculty at the Law School, the Coalition for Civil Rights (CCR) coordinated a series of dialogues between professors and students to discuss faculty diversity.

The "Lobby Days," held on March 2 and 3, signed up about 70 students to meet with tenured professors to discuss faculty diversity.

According to first-year lobbyist Scott D. Wiener, every member of the tenured faculty was approached for an appointment to talk with students about diversity.

"The event was designed to allow faculty and students to talk to each other on the issue of faculty diversity," said the third-year Co-Chair of CCR Inga S. Bernstein. "It allowed students to voice their concerns about diversity and the direct effect this issue has on their education in law."

Law students were invited by CCR to sign up for shifts on the two days of lobbying. SUIT
