Support Richmond Law

Living Greatly in the Law Campaign

The vision of the University of Richmond School of Law is to “Live Greatly in the Law,” featuring programs that integrate theory, practice and public service. The law school’s comprehensive Strategic Plan presents a roadmap for national prominence by the academic year 2010. Central to the success of the plan is a building addition, which will be named the Judge Robert R. Merhige Jr. Law Pavilion to honor one of Richmond’s most esteemed and beloved graduates.

Specific goals outlined in the law school’s Strategic Plan include:

  • Double the total financial aid awarded to students to ensure a student body that is exceptionally well-qualified and diverse
  • Increase dramatically the size of the instructional faculty
  • Create a pro bono service program
  • Forge interdisciplinary partnerships with other campus units
  • Enhance further the technology and information services programs
  • Execute an aggressive marketing campaign to highlight achievements, programs and the excellence of the UR law program
  • Develop specialized academic centers to foster research, public outreach and concentrated educational opportunities
  • Participate actively in the local community
