1 in 5 law students has a disability. Disabled law students show some of the highest levels of engagement in legal education, yet law schools continue to fall short in support, belonging, and accessibility. LSSSE’s findings make this clear. Check out their new report: lssse.iub.edu/what-we-do/r...

Fam, I’m so proud of this one: the first comprehensive empirical study of disability in law school. Did you know 20% of law students have disabilities? And while they outperform their peers on engagement, they need more institutional support. Learn about their backgrounds, behaviors & experiences👇

The Law School Survey of Student Engagement released its 2025 report, Disability in Law School. Among many helpful findings: 1/5 students report having a disability. This serves as an important counter to what NALP has found (1-2% in offices/firms). Well done, @meeradeo.bsky.social!
