Duquesne’s New Legal Writing Program Ranked Among the Best in the Country!

The School of Law’s new Legal Research and Writing Program is ranked in the top 30 of all the law schools in the nation as announced recently by U.S. News and World Report. The 2009 rankings issue lists Duquesne’s program ahead of nearly 160 other law schools, and this is the first time the School of Law has been listed in any of the Specialty Rankings categories. The Legal Writing specialty ranking, begun by U.S. News in 2006, is voted on by legal writing directors throughout the country, reflecting the opinion of those with specialized knowledge of the field based on information available at the start of the 2007-08 academic year.
