Sarah Good is speaking at the NALP Annual Education Conference for the session "Now We Know More: Race Conscious Recruitment After Students for Fair Admissions v Harvard."

Session Overview:

In the months since the SCOTUS decisions, legal employers and law schools have examined their policies and practices in student recruitment as they strive to maintain momentum in their DEI efforts. Many law schools are admitting their first classes using race-neutral methods deemed acceptable to their institutions. Guided by the key findings in the decisions, panelists will discuss the ripple effects faced by various stakeholders, focusing on ways that schools and employers can work together to create and maintain effective pipeline recruitment activities. Panelists will discuss the challenges for those who advise students in their career exploration and job searches, acknowledging the immediate opportunity to affect the first cohort of students as they progress through law school and the recruitment arena after these decisions. This session will provide a forum for employers and school professionals to learn from each other through frank discussion. This program is sponsored by the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Steering Committee, and the Experienced Professionals Section
