Ave Maria School of Law Summary
The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.
Ave Maria School of Law, a Roman Catholic law school, is located in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Ave Maria espouses a natural law philosophy and teaches law within the context of the Catholic intellectual tradition. Tom Monaghan, founder of Domino’s Pizza and former owner of the Detroit Tigers, supports the school through his Ave Maria Foundation and serves as the chairman of the board of governors of the school. Ave Maria School of Law’s Board of Governors has confirmed a move to the newly planned town of Ave Maria, about 30 miles east of Naples, Florida, where the new campus of Ave Maria University, another institution supported by Monaghan’s Ave Maria Foundation, is to be built. In 1999, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas delivered the school’s first annual Ave Maria Lecture. In 2003, Ave Maria’s first graduating class passed the Michigan Bar Exam at a rate of 93 percent among first-time takers, which was the top rate in Michigan. Dean Dobranski made the announcement that the School of Law will be moving to Ave Maria, Florida.
