In recognition of its national leadership in preparing the next generation of attorneys who are ready to tackle racial injustice, Northeastern University School of Law was ranked No. 10 for racial justice in the fall 2022 issue of preLaw magazine.

The rankings are conducted every two years, with data from the American Bar Association and individual schools.

In its rankings article, the magazine extensively quotes Dean James Hackney. “This generation of students wants to know what people are doing, not what they are saying when applying to law school,” said Hackney. “We think it’s important for us to have an ethos and a holistic view of these issues. Racial justice can be seen in all areas of law.”
