: Ms. JDCenter for Women in Law Launched at UT
By jessie
This week the University of Texas School of Law launched the Center for Women in Law with a Women's Power Summit on Law and Leadership. An astonishingly accomplished group of women, among them at least three people on "the short list" and Justice O'Connor, were present. The first byproduct of the gathering was this Manifesto, which sets a goals for the profession, including reaching 30 percent of equity partnerships, tenured law professorships
and general counsel posts by 2012, with no less than 10 percent of those positions being held by minority women by 2020. The more immediate result of the Summit was a resolution calling on the President to appoint a woman to fill the seat that will be vacated by Justice Souter's retirement.
Look for Ms. JD and the Center to collaborate on new projects in the coming months!
