North Carolina Lawyers Weekly
Almost every other intra-collegiate competition has been cancelled this spring, but one March tradition has endured, with U.S. News & World Report releasing the 2021 installment of its annual Best Law School Rankings.
The University of North Carolina School of Law was one of the biggest climbers in this year’s rankings, moving up seven places to a tie for 27th. Wake Forest University School of Law was one of the biggest movers in the other direction, dropping 11 places to a tie for 42nd. Duke Law School dropped two places, to 12th, but remained, as ever, the highest-ranked law school in the state.
Campbell Law School, Elon University School of Law, and North Carolina Central University School of Law all placed in the categories for schools ranked from places 148 through 194.
