hasting admissions policy. DEI before DEI was cook??

A distinct feature of the Hastings admissions process is its LEOP program, which is offered to disadvantaged applicants, such as minorities. The goal of this program was initially to balance all opportunities in law, meaning that the standard criteria that determine admissions are not necessarily the best way in which to indicate whether or not a person is worthy of admission. Minorities are not the only ones given the opportunity to apply under this program. Applicants that usually qualify are those that have overcome educational, social, physical, or economic obstacles. The program begins with the admissions process, during which time the applicant can opt to fill out a LEOP application essay. If an applicant qualifies, he receives additional and free tutoring and training through his law school years whenever needed. This program does appear to be a variation on affirmative action, although it seems to allow for those students who could be regarded as minorities on factors other than race.
