The FAMU College of Law’s bid for full accreditation is now in the hands of the American Bar Association’s Council on Legal Education Opportunity. The council has the options of granting FAMU’s request, denying it, or extending the current provisional accreditation.According to the ABA Journal, a decision approving full accreditation for FAMU law “is expected.”
A ruling could be announced as early as today. FAMU administrators have made preparations for a press conference at the Orlando law school.
ABA reviewers have expressed high praises for the leadership of President James Ammons. They complimented him for restoring $5 million that the previous interim administration withheld from the school and hiring a strong dean who has improved faculty and student morale.
Under Dean LeRoy Pernell, FAMU law has achieved an overall bar passage rate of about 80 percent.
So...what was the reason for the press conference?!?!? I just figured we were already granted accreditation and was announcing.
