Press links – Final Report on the Initiative

Since the Women Lawyers of Utah released its final report entitled “The Utah Report: The Initiative on the Advancement and Retention of Women in Law Firms,” WLU has received national press from the Wall Street Journal (online), ABA Journal (online), FindLaw, Ms. J.D., The Project for Attorney Retention website and national expert Cynthia Calvert’s website. 

Also, the local NPR affiliate, KUER, aired an interview of WLU President, Melanie Vartabedian, by Tasha Cook regarding the Initiative on Monday, November 15.  A link to the interview is here.   http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/kuer/news.newsmain/article/0/1/1725126/KUER.Local.News/The.Utah.Report.on.Women.Lawyers
