State's first public law school approved at UMass Dartmouth

The state Board of Higher Education approved the merger of Southern New England School of Law with the UMass system. That means that UMass Dartmouth will soon include a law school in their university offerings. Kudos to the many who worked to get this done. Congratulations to Chancellor McCormack, her faculty, and staff. The Fall River Times Herald article on the vote can be found here
