Why are law schools interested in recruiting minority students?</p>
<p>Historically, minority group members have been underrepresented in the legal profession. A substantial discrepancy remains between the percentage of minority members in society versus the percentage in the legal profession. To promote diversity in the profession, all LSAC-member law schools actively seek qualified African American, Hispanic, Asian, and American Indian students as well as other students of color. (In addition, many schools consider such factors as economic and educational disadvantage when considering a candidate for admission.) Law schools find that diversity within the classroom enriches the learning process for all students.

<p>Asians are included in the LSAC definition of minority, it seems.</p>
<p>Side note: I wonder how the language will change when "whites" as they call them are no longer the majority of Americans.</p>
