WHITE PLAINS, May 1, 2007 — Pace Law School’s overall U.S.News & World Report rank has increased four places from last year’s 125 to 121 out of 179 schools. Our rank improved in every category but one and our Environmental Law program continues its strong showing, ranking third nationwide. While four places is not a big move, it represents continuous improvement and, together with last year’s more substantial upward movement, we are proud of it. These rankings reflect evaluations made last fall and are based on data and reputation for 2005-06.
