collageThree Alabama law schools ranked among ten most conservative student bodies
Three law schools in Alabama have been ranked among the ten most conservative student bodies in the nation.
In the Princeton Review’s annual rankings for 2019, Samford University’s Cumberland School of Law came in at fourth most conservative, while Faulkner University’s Thomas Goode Jones School of Law and the University of Alabama School of Law were listed at number six and eight, respectively.
The Princeton Review, whose rankings are widely considered the national gold standard for colleges and universities, also named the 165 “best law schools,” as well as listing the top ten schools in other categories besides “most conservative students.”
The University of Alabama, Samford and Faulkner’s respective law schools were all named as some of the best in the nation, while also picking up more select accolades.
Samford, which is located in Homewood, saw its law school ranked third in the United States for “best quality of life.”
Faulkner’s Thomas Goode Jones School of Law in Montgomery received two impressive honors, ranking fifth for “most competitive students” and number eight in “greatest resources for minority students.”
The University of Alabama School of Law was praised in a write-up for its selectivity and academic experience.
“Alabama prides itself on offering a tremendous legal education at an affordable price,” the Princeton Review noted.
It scored – out of a 100-point scale – a 95 in “academic experience,” a 97 in “professors interest rating” and a 98 in “professors accessible rating.”
