The University of the District of Columbia David A. Clarke School of Law (also known as UDC-DCSL and UDC Law) is the District of Columbia's public law school. Located near the Van Ness – UDC Metro station in Washington, D.C., 366 students were enrolled at the school for the 2012-2013 academic year〔 According to UDC Law's 2013 ABA-required disclosures, 57.5% of the Class of 2013 obtained JD-required or advantage employment nine months after graduation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://c.ymcdn.com/sites/udc.site-ym.com/resource/resmgr/2013_employment_data.pdf )〕 ==History== UDC Law was established as the District of Columbia School of Law after Antioch University decided to close its law school.〔 The Antioch School of Law was a Washington, D.C. school established in 1972 by Jean Camper Cahn and Edgar S. Cahn, a married inter-racial couple dedicated to improving legal services for poor people. Eager to retain the Antioch School of Law's mission, curriculum, clinical programs, and personnel for the benefit of the city, in 1986 Antioch School of Law students, alumni and local legal and civic leaders mounted a successful grassroots campaign to persuade the Council of the District of Columbia to pass legislation that re-established the school as the District of Columbia School of Law (DCSL).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nytimes.com/1986/10/09/us/antioch-law-school-gains.html )〕 The Council of the District of Columbia later passed legislation merging the School of Law with the University of the District of Columbia in 1996.〔 In 1998 President Clinton signed legislation renaming the School after former D.C. Council Chair David A. Clarke, a civil rights leader, former Chair of the Council of the District of Columbia and long-time advocate for the law school and its mission.〔 The District of Columbia School of Law was awarded provisional accreditation by the American Bar Association in 1991, while the David A. Clarke School of Law was awarded provisional accreditation shortly after its renaming in 1998.〔 It was awarded full accreditation by a unanimous vote of the ABA House of Delegates on August 8, 2005.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「David A.
