U.S. News & World Report has unveiled its 2023 Best Law Schools rankings with one big change this year: for the first time since 1990, Harvard Law School is no longer in the top three. In this latest ranking, Harvard now ties Columbia Law School for fourth place. University of Chicago Law School took Harvard’s place, after having tied Columbia for fourth place last year. The only Tennessee school to make the Top 50, Vanderbilt University Law School, dropped one position from last year, from number 16 to 17. The University of Tennessee College of Law ranked just outside the Top 50 with a score of 56, while Belmont University College of Law came in at 133 and the University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law came in at 142. LMU Duncan School of Law was unranked beyond the #147-192 category.
