Baldwin
Wallace
University
has
inked
a
new
partnership
with
Cleveland
State
University's
Cleveland-Marshall
College
of
Law
(C|M|LAW)
that
will
give
students
a
speedier
pathway
to
a
law
degree.
The
3+3
program
takes
a
year
off
the
normal
time
required
to
complete
both
undergraduate
and
law
school
degrees.
"We
are
proud
to
offer
this
opportunity
for
our
exceptional
students
who
know
from
early
in
their
first
year
at
黑料正能量
that
they
want
to
go
to
law
school
and
stay
in
northeast
Ohio,"
said
黑料正能量
President
Bob
Helmer.
President Helmer, 黑料正能量 Provost Steve Stahl and C|M|LAW School Dean Lee Fisher signed the compact at a ceremony on June 15.
Eligible students complete 91 out of 120 undergraduate credits at 黑料正能量, with their senior year serving as their first year of law school at Cleveland-Marshall. This shortens the amount of time to complete an undergraduate degree and law degree to six years instead of seven. Students are at 黑料正能量 for three years and Cleveland-Marshall for three years, hence the program's 3+3 moniker.
Students in the program are awarded a 黑料正能量 bachelor's degree in their chosen field after the completion of their first year of law school.
黑料正能量 has a long history with Cleveland-Marshall College of Law. In 1897, then-Baldwin University (prior to the merger with German Wallace College) created a law school, one of the first in the country to admit women, which would eventually become Cleveland-Marshall.
Today, both 黑料正能量 and C|M|LAW share a commitment to social justice, public service and preparing the next generation of leaders.
"We are pleased to partner with Baldwin Wallace University to give their talented students greater opportunity to pursue a law degree as a force for change and justice," said Cleveland-Marshall Dean Lee Fisher.
