Decline in Black and Hispanic students at elite law schools in the wake of SCOTUS decision
Some details here. Corporate America's commitment to "diversity" still seems to be strong, which leads me to think that insofar as clients demand "diverse" teams of attorneys from law firms, law firms will recruit more aggressively at schools outside the top ranks to find suitable candidates. (I was amused the reporter used the even more meaningless than before "top 14" designation!)
