    LGBTQ+ Bar's Law School Campus Climate Survey-2021

    In November of 2020, the National LGBTQ+ Bar Association and Foundation invited all ABA-accredited law schools in the United States to participate in the National LGBTQ+ Bar Association’s third annual Law School Campus Climate Survey. This survey was designed to identify policies and procedures that specifically impact the schools’ LGBTQ+ population. The survey asked each school to identify only their law school’s policies and data, and not those of any broader University structure associated with that law school (unless overall University policy guides law school policy).

    As a companion to this survey, the National LGBTQ+ Bar Association has created a Best Practices Guide as a resource to assist law schools in their efforts to foster a safe, welcoming community free from discrimination. In addition, in 2019 the National LGBTQ+ Bar launched a consulting and training program, Lavender Law 365®, that is designed specifically to enable the implementation of best practice standards for LGBTQ+ equity across law schools, law firms and companies. Please visit the Lavender Law 365® page to learn more.

    In addition to the information contained in the Campus Climate Survey, the National LGBTQ+ Bar has compiled nondiscrimination policies for each ABA-accredited law school in the United States and has noted whether each school bars discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and/or gender identity. This data represents our best information as of April 5, 2021. If you are affiliated with an ABA-accredited law school and believe that our information is out-of-date, please contact Chief Program Officer Judi O’Kelley with an updated link to your law school’s nondiscrimination policy.

    The National LGBTQ+ Bar Association and Foundation profusely thanks the 111 law schools that responded to this survey.

    NONDISCRIMINATION STATEMENTS

    The grid below highlights many of the questions and answers that the 111 responding schools answered in our full survey, based upon the schools’ 2020-2021 school year policies and data. The survey consisted of 26 questions, many of which had sub-parts. Based on the schools’ responses to the original questions, they were not always asked to answer the sub-parts, or the sub-parts were not applicable based on school policy. In such cases, the fields have been left empty. However, a field that says “Answer left blank” indicates that the school was asked for that information but chose not to answer.

    Please click on each individual school’s name for more detailed answers and information.

    University of Miami School of LawYesYesNoYesYesYesNo View CommentsAs of February 16, 2021, we have approximately 100 people on our full-time instructional faculty. View CommentsRegarding Questions 10 – 12a, we have many people in our law school community who serve in multiple roles (e.g., faculty members who also serve in administrative roles). To compute the data for this survey, these individuals were counted separately in each role in which they serve. In other words, there are some people who were counted twice because they fill multiple roles within our law school. While some individuals were counted twice, we remained internally consistent while calculating these numbers. Only full-time instructional faculty were added to this list; we did not include our full list of excellent adjunct professors because this list varies from semester to semester. Providing data on how many people self-identify as LGBTQ+ is very difficult because we do not ask for the information and the manner of self-identification varies greatly among individuals. To the best of our knowledge, 14 people self-identify as LGBTQ+ on our faculty.
