LAW SCHOOL TOP RANKED
 

The FSU College of Law's administrative law faculty has been rated among the nation's top eight "most outstanding" in a recent ranking of American law schools.

The Education Quality Rankings al-so place the FSU law faculty's scholarly productivity and impact among the nation's top 20 state law schools in a number of categories.

The Educational Quality survey ranks FSU's administrative law faculty with the faculties of Yale, New York University, The University of Pennsylvania, Columbia, George Washington and Boston University. The eight faculties were not placed in rank order. FSU was the only state-supported law school in the group.

The College of Law was rated 12th among public schools nationally, and 31st overall, in the number of faculty articles published in leading law journals. The survey relies heavily on objective measures of faculty output and impact in assigning its rankings and is highly regarded by law schools. Other college surveys rely more on subjective criteria in their analysis, including law school reputations among lawyers, judges and professors.
