On Sunday, July 10, Dean of Admissions Reyes Aguilar was quoted in a story by The Salt Lake Tribune about efforts to diversify Utah’s judicial bench. The story was also picked up by the Associated Press and published on other news outlets.
“One of my frustrations has been what I see as a presumption that, by somehow considering these things, a person is less qualified,” Aguilar said. “And that creates a constant uphill battle for some of these very successful attorneys and very successful students.”
