Inclusive Excellence at NIU College of Law

Northern Illinois University College of Law is strongly committed to facilitating access to the legal profession for members of traditionally underrepresented groups. Among our goals is to counter the effects of societal discrimination, to increase the number of lawyers who will serve in communities that are currently underserved and to obtain for our students the educational benefits that flow from a diverse faculty and student body. Our faculty and students represent diverse communities and identities in our society based on gender, age, sexual orientation, gender expression, gender identity, race, culture, ethnicity and physical ability.
