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.

Although the OU College of Law has been able to keep its tuition rates relatively low, tuition has steadily increased over the years, making it more and more difficult for students to obtain a legal education. About two-thirds of OU Law students take out loans to pay the costs of their legal education, which increasingly affects the choices they make upon graduation. 

Therefore, the College of Law has increased its focus on scholarships in hopes of increasing the number of scholarships available to students.  By increasing the number of scholarships available, it gives us a competitive edge in recruiting top students, reducing the amount of college loan debt that students take on and ensures our students pursue their dreams, not just work to pay off debt.
