To further demonstrate our commitment to diversity, Delaware Law supports the Law School Admission Council&rsquo;s <a href=\"http://www.discoverlaw.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DiscoverLaw.org</a> campaign and the <a href=\"https://cleoinc.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Council on Legal Education Opportunity</a>. Both initiatives seek to make a legal education more accessible for all students. We also offer a welcoming environment for first-generation law students.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n<div style=\"float: right; width: 20%;\"><a href=\"https://www.discoverlaw.org/\"><img src=\"irl://1772//\" alt=\"Discover Law\" width=\"95%\" /></a></div>\r\n</div>\r\n<div style=\"clear: both;\">\r\n<p>Students of diverse background often find having a support network of friends, colleagues and peers with whom they can relate helps to facilitate their academic and social needs which in turns helps them to perform at their best. The Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion aims to provide programs and services that will provide the most support possible for students. Our broad definition of diversity mandates that we invite and encourage students to participate in and support other organizations that may not share the same ideas or ideals.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n<h5>Programs Include</h5>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Delaware Law Engages\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Each August the Standing Committee on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion will select a book or film, or other media format that all incoming students will be required to read, watch, or listen to as part of the first-year orientation and curriculum. Throughout the year, DLS will sponsor programming centered around the selection, including group discussions and potential inclusion into class assignments. If feasible, the author of the book or other related party will be invited to campus to speak and meet with students.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n</li>\r\n<li>Annual DEI Training for Student Leaders</li>\r\n<li>DEI Workshops &amp; Townhalls</li>\r\n<li>DEI Topics Incorporated into Curriculum</li>\r\n<li>1L Mentoring Program for all entering students through the Office of Career Development</li>\r\n<li>Study Aid Loaner Program (Office of Student Affairs)</li>\r\n</ul>",
