Bill overview
This bill proposes a pilot program to integrate a state-accredited law school into California State University, San Jose. The program would allow a continuously accredited, independent nonprofit law school to become a constituent academic unit of the university, jointly offering a juris doctor degree and undergraduate legal education programs. It requires specific approvals from governing boards and the California State University Trustees, along with ongoing evaluations and reporting to the legislature. The program would operate for six years and is set to expire in 2041.
