LMU Law Launches New Part-Time/Hybrid JD Program

Posted by: Stacey Shrader Joslin on Mar 3, 2023

The Lincoln Memorial University Duncan School of Law (LMU Law) has launched a new part-time/hybrid law degree program and is currently accepting applications for the fall of 2023. The school says that it won approval from the American Bar Association last week to create the program and offer distance education hours in excess of those currently permitted under ABA standards. The new program will replace the school’s flex-time enrollment option, which has allowed students to take a reduced load of credits for the past 10 years, but has still required in-person daytime classes. The new program will provide an option for individuals who need or want to work full-time. Associate Dean for Distance Education Vonda Laughlin will oversee the program.
