Ways to Give

The Dean’s Leadership Circle offers the law school dean resources to take advantage of exciting opportunities for faculty and students and to support innovative programs that will enhance the legal education provided by the OU College of Law. 

The funds raised through this giving society will be used to provide fellowships that allow students to work for public interest organizations, create innovative programs such as the international Human Rights Clinic and send members of OU’s legal teams to annual competitions. These programs help strengthen the quality of legal education and allow our students to gain an upper hand as they enter the job market.  

Members of the Dean’s Leadership Circle receive regular updates from Dean Harroz about how the funds are being used, receive an invitation to an annual dinner event with student recipients and are recognized in the College’s digital donor display.

The OU Law Society provides resources for the OU College of Law’s general fund, allowing the College to host alumni receptions and events throughout the year. It also supports scholarships, academic resources, and other important law school initiatives. This Society exists to connect alumni and enable younger alumni to begin giving back to their alma mater.

Members of The OU Law Society play a vital role on campus as well. The Society’s active presence allows students the opportunity to connect with alumni, while demonstrating to students the importance of giving back. The Society provides students with snacks during finals and includes graduating third years in events, to assist in the transition from student to alumni.

The University of Oklahoma College of Law has established the first International Business and Human Rights Center at a U.S. law school. U.S. businesses often find themselves in difficult operating environments abroad that have significant human rights problems. At the same time, the U.S. government expects companies to respect human rights in line with international standards. Many companies now have human rights policies and frequently expect their lawyers to implement such policies. These expectations require leadership by the legal community. The Center's mission is: 1) to provide students with training, networking, and practical experience in this emerging field to be leaders in this space, and 2) to provide academic think tank support on these issues, with a particular focus on the energy/extractive sector and Information and Communications Technology (ICT) companies.

The Center is grateful for those who believe in its mission and have helped make it possible.
