The U.S. Supreme Court ruling on affirmative action last year left many involved with diversity, equity and inclusion programs wondering what would come next. Since the ruling, DEI advocates have seen a nationwide backlash using the decision to target non-discrimination training and DEI programs across a variety of sectors. Join us Oct. 7, at the New Jersey Law Center or online for the DEI Conference 2024. Our distinguished panel will take stock of impacts felt in higher education, corporate America, law firms and government organizations. The panel will explore other legal actions that have been filed, decisions that provide additional guideposts and efforts that have withstood challenges. The discussion will also feature action items and practical tips for anyone who believes the principles of DEI should remain resonant in workplace culture.

New Jersey State Bar Association President William H. Mergner Jr. visited incoming first-year law students at Seton Hall University School of Law and Rutgers Law School-Camden to offer words of encouragement and administer the Lawyer’s Pledge, an oath that outlines the ideals of the profession. “Today, the New Jersey State Bar Association officially welcomes you as a new member. You are now part of a network of more than 16,000 attorneys who belong to the NJSBA, who sat where you sit now and know the challenges you will experience,” Mergner said. “You may have first-day jitters, feel excited or anxious, but also know this: you are not alone. The NJSBA is here for support and as a valuable resource as you begin your legal education and your entry into this great and noble profession.” On behalf of the NJSBA, congratulations to the law school classes of 2027. #NJStateBar
