Coalition for Legal Recruiting
The Coalition for Legal Recruiting (CoLR) seeks to engage the entire NYU Law community -- students, faculty, and administrators -- in ongoing dialogue about diversity. In addition to facilitating dialogue on campus, CoLR is committed to increasing faculty, student, and curriculum diversity at NYU Law.
Each semester, members of CoLR host the Critical Reading group that examines critical perspectives on the law and legal profession. We meet with members of the Academic Personnel Committee to discuss the hiring process, and build community with other student groups committed to improving diversity at the law school. CoLR publishes an annual Critical Reader, pulling together a wide range of scholarship in critical race theory, feminist jurisprudence, GLBT legal studies, law & economic justice, and other areas. And we honor NYU Law faculty of color, as well as faculty who identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender, for their contributions to the profession and the law school community at the annual Faculty of CoLR Appreciation Dinner.
Come to meetings and get involved in some or all of our programming!
