Annual List of Top U.S. ADR Law Schools Largely Unchanged

The annual ranking of the best law school ADR programs by US News & World Report was populated by familiar names. The only surprise for 2011 was Yeshiva University's Cardozo School of Law, which had not ranked in the top ten in the past few years, appearing at number six on the list.

The top ten ranking:

Pepperdine University (Straus)
Harvard University
Hamline University
University of Missouri
Ohio State University (Moritz)
Marquette University
Yeshiva University (Cardozo)
University of Oregon
University of Nevada--Las Vegas (Boyd)
University of California (Hastings)

It is notable that several of these top ranked schools do not have their own Organizational Ombuds programs: Oregon, Pepperdine, Yeshiva, and UNLV. (US News & World Report.)

We hope to have at least one of them on for a ADRhub podcast and plan to ask them why that is the case.

Comment by Tom A. Kosakowski on March 30, 2011 at 1:49pm: Actually, Yeshiva and Marquette are tied at #6. The list of the top 19 is available at ADR Prof Blog (another great site you should be reading): http://www.indisputably.org/?p=2217.
