Students are drawn to UW Law School for its stimulating and supportive atmosphere, the diverse student body, and the transformative education provided by the school’s world-class faculty and programs.
Thanks to gifts from alumni and friends, the School continues its mission while preserving the extraordinary quality of the UW Law experience. Your support helps attract a talented and diverse student body, acquire and retain world-class faculty, and offer an unrivaled portfolio of experiential learning opportunities for students. All this enhances the Law School’s national reputation, increasing the value of a UW Law degree.
UW Law School’s top priorities are below. If you would like to discuss your interests in advancing UW Law’s work and impact, please contact our Directors of Development from the UW Foundation, Liz Feist (serving alumni in Madison and in regions east of Madison) and Mindy Scott (serving alumni in Madison and in regions west of Madison).
- Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Initiatives surrounding this critical issue are incorporated throughout all other priorities; increasing opportunities for under-represented groups to explore law school and the legal profession; recruiting students, faculty and staff who reflect the multicultural multiracial and multi-perspective world we live.
- Faculty Recruitment and Retention
We are committed to increasing the number of top-tier legal scholars and tenure track faculty, while ensuring that the Dean has flexible funds for faculty retention efforts. This priority increases the visibility and prestige of UW Law, while providing students with superior learning opportunities, strengthening affinity, and increasing overall success.
- Student Financial Aid and Outcomes
We strive to make our outstanding legal education, accessible to all who have the capacity to excel and to ensure that students may pursue a meaningful career without debt restricting their options. We strive to provide world-class experiential learning opportunities, through clinics, fellowships, and internships to increased numbers of students, allowing them to practice what they learn in the classroom, in the real world.
- Facility Renovation and Updates
There are many areas within the Law building that need important updates and renovations, to serve our students even better. The environment, tools, and equipment available for students as they pursue their educational and professional goals have a powerful affect on their ability to thrive.
