WMU?and Cooley Law School will end their partnership
Western Michigan University Trustees voted Nov. 5 to end its partnership with Cooley Law School, an association dating from 2013.
The partnership will wind down over three years; and the law school will no longer have WMU in its name.
WMU President Edward Montgomery noted the university is focusing on its core mission and charting a course for an even stronger post-pandemic WMU.
At its peak, Cooley Law School had nearly 4,000 students, with campuses in Lansing, Ann Arbor, Grand Rapids, Auburn Hills and Riverview, Fla.
By next year it will only have campuses in Lansing and Florida.
