McGeorge School of Law

University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law is a private, American Bar Association approved law school in the Oak Park neighborhood of the city of Sacramento, California. It is part of the University of the Pacific. Originally founded in 1924, the school merged with and became part of the University of the Pacific in 1966. The current dean of McGeorge School of Law is former CIA General Counsel Elizabeth Rindskopf Parker. On April 22, 2011, Parker announced her decision to step down as Dean of University of the Pacific's McGeorge School of Law in Sacramento, effective June 30, 2012.... The school that eventually became McGeorge began in 1921 when Stanford Law School graduate and Standard Oil executive Verne Adrian McGeorge began teaching law students at night in downtown Sacramento, California. After its formal establishment as a school in 1924, this Sacramento Law School, subsequently renamed in Professor McGeorge's honor as the "McGeorge School of Law," merged with the University of the Pacific in 1966 and came to be known as "Pacific McGeorge." McGeorge became an integral part of the University of the Pacific in 1991.
