Diversity and Inclusion
We strive to create a diverse student body, faculty, and staff who represent the world around us.
We believe in a campus community that reflects our society and everything that makes that community richly diverse.
The Stetson Law community embraces all aspects of diversity and inclusion. We actively foster an environment where all students feel safe, and feel empowered to speak their minds on a broad array of topics. Diversity is reflected in course offerings, student groups, and opportunities to engage with the community.

Consortium for Racial Justice
The Deans of the 12 law schools in Florida formed the Florida Law Schools’ Consortium for Racial Justice (FLSCRJ) in June 2020 in response to longstanding and current acts of racist violence. The collective aims to leverage the strengths and educational roles of every law school in the state to assist community organizations fighting for racial justice and policy reform throughout Florida.
