Southern University Law Center is a very small, public university located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. This urban setting might be best suited for students who like the fast-paced city life. Should you tire of the campus however, Southern University Law Center offers a “study abroad” program.
The Higher Education Act of 1965 established historically black colleges and universities as institutions whose principal mission was the education of African-Americans. Today, the HBCU designation does not necessitate that Southern University Law Center is exclusively or even predominantly African-American (it currently is not). Thanks to integration efforts, there are HBCUs with non-black majorities and non-HBCUs with black majorities. For more information you can review the White House Initiative on Historically Black Colleges and Universities.
For more information on policies and accommodations that the university provides to ensure all students get the opportunity to participate, you can visit Southern University Law Center Disability Services.
