Equity and Opportunity Begin at Home

Our Spiritan founders believed equity and opportunity begin at home. At the Thomas R. Kline School of Law we also understand access to justice is essential for a democratic society and that diversity in the legal profession enables individuals from a wide range of backgrounds to add their perspectives to the greater legal community.

Duquesne Kline School of Law is dedicated to educating a diverse community of scholars. Today, our students have more opportunities than ever to study with future colleagues from a multitude of socio-economic and ethnic backgrounds. They learn from professors who bring diverse experiences into the classroom.
