Budget issues at UK law school cause it to fall out of compliance with American Bar standard - MONICA KAST, Lexington Herald Leader

The University of Kentucky J. David Rosenberg College of Law is out of compliance with one American Bar Association standard for accreditation related to finances, the association announced this week. The law school’s budget deficit, coming from major renovations to the college’s building in recent years and spending on scholarships, caused it to fall out of compliance with the finance standard, UK spokesperson Jay Blanton said. The College of Law is compliant with all other standards for accreditation, and will remain accredited throughout the process of addressing its compliance, according to an email sent from Provost Robert DiPaola to students and faculty.
