There’s one Hugh Hewitt teaches at down in Orange, California. Forget the name. I think it is Christian too.

My husband’s a Notre Dam Law grad. Excellent reputation. A top-tier university (very selective). Very conservative. And a beautiful campus. You need an LSAT score of at least 170. Go for it!

Regent in Virginia Beach is about as conservative as you can get.

Check out the “Future Lawyers” tab on my website (the one in my tagline). I’d be happy to talk to you offline. Send me a FReepmail if you want to discuss. Godspeed!

I wouldn’t base my law school choice on whether or not the school is conservative or not. Instead, go to the very best school you can get into. You won’t have many friends while you’re there, but when you graduate, you’ll be able to fight the liberals at their own game with equal credentials. Just be careful and don’t drink the kool-aid while you’re there!!!

Look into the Law School at the University of Oklahoma. They have at least some conservative professors there, and here in Oklahoma, even Libs tend to be more conservative.

After you’ve looked at them all, pray!

The most important thing here is to know what state you plan on taking the bar and practicing in. It would also help to know what type of law you are interested in practicing.

Those should be the most important things to consider when choosing a law school.

Just pick the school you want, and become an active member in the Federalist Society. Sponser debates and symposiums with representatives of other groups.

Ave Maria is conservative. I think they are moving to FL this year from Ann Arbor.

Also, make sure you consider joining the Christian Legal Society student chapter at your school, especially if you end up at a secular institution. Their website is clsnet.org

Check the Federalist Society. They are a Conservative/libertarian Legal Society with chapters at most good Law Schools, but some are more active than others.

The University of Illinois in Champaign-Urbana is known to be conservative leaning for a state school.

If you are going to be a lawyer, you need to be well grounded but also to have confidence in yourself. While there are some law schools with a conservative bent, don’t shy away from the others. Go to the best law school you can get into and can afford. The faculty may be liberal, bur you should be able to tell that, to compensate for it, and (selectively) to challenge it. You will get a fine education and emerge a smarter and stronger person for the experience. Good luck!!
