A world of impact

No one knows the influence of a UB School of Law education better than our students -  and those they go on to serve as graduates of our law school. The tools and inspiration of a legal education pay dividends in the lives of many.

In this issue of the UB Law Forum, we celebrate how the law school and its students, alumni, faculty and staff create positive change. They bring their skills and passion to bear through a variety of channels: scholarship and research that engages cutting-edge legal topics; advocating for the public on issues that affect their lives; advancing important public policy and legislation; and providing practical service that responds to human needs locally and globally.
