Enforcement of Law Schools\u27 Non-Academic Honor Codes: A Necessary Step Towards Professionalism?

Abstract

As law schools strive to enforce their codes of student conduct, enforcement has called into question the legal standing of the schools, since enforcement affects the fundamental rights of students. Consequently, this Article will address the following question: to what extent can law schools fulfill their responsibility and opportunity to enforce behavioral codes-specifically codes governing non-academic conduct-with a goal of improving professionalism? Through analysis of law schools\u27 enforcement capabilities, this Article will suggest a practical framework by which law schools can promulgate and enforce codes and rules affecting students\u27 non-academic conduct
