Thomas Goode Jones School of Law, located on the campus of Faulkner University in Montgomery, has been named one of the 15 best law schools in the United States when it comes to preparing students for public service in government. The rating came from the National Jurist, a publication which is referred to as “The voice of legal education.” The ratings were based upon each school’s employment data, curricula and other information in creating the list.

The law school trains law students for careers in public service, preparing them both to engage critically with difficult legal and policy questions and to deal practically with the challenges of public service. Interestingly, nearly 30% of the graduating class of 2010 chose public service careers when they graduated. Jones is widely recognized as an exceptionally good law school. The school is doing extremely well under the leadership of Dean Charles Nelson.
