Ms. JD: Changing the Face of the Legal Profession

"Serving women in law school and the legal profession,
Ms. JD is an online community that provides a forum for
dialogue and networking among women lawyers and aspiring
lawyers."

The site was founded in March 2006 by a group of female law
students from Boalt Hall (UC Berkeley), Cornell, Georgetown,
Harvard, NYU, Stanford, UCLA, UT Austin, the University of
Chicago, the University of Michigan, the University of Virginia,
and Yale.
