The category of Asian/Pacific Islander includes a heterogeneous and complex grouping of people with different average educational backgrounds, wealth, and privilege, including people having origins in Burma, Cambodia, China, Guam, Hawaii, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Laos, Malaysia, Pakistan, the Philippine Islands, Samoa, Thailand, and Vietnam, among many other countries. It is important to note: [t]here are no Asians in Asia, only people with national identities, But on this side of the Pacific there are Asian Americans. This broader identity was forged in the crucible of racial discrimination and exclusion: their national origins did not matter as much as their race.

A robust dialog on legal education reform, of course, started earlier than the 1992 publication of the MacCrate Report, with the advent of clinical legal education in this country and discussions about its import for the academy and the profession. There have been other important books advocating legal education reform from different perspectives. See, e.g, LANI GUINIER ET AL, BECOMING GENTLEMEN: WOMEN, LAW SCHOOLS AND INSTITUTIONAL CHANGE (1995, Although not specifically about law school admissions, another influential and important book focuses on affirmative action and its impact over time: DEREK BOK & WILLIAM BOWEN, THE SHAPE OF THE RIVER: LONG-TERM CONSEQUENCES OF CONSIDERING RACE IN COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY ADMISSIONS 1998

A robust dialog on legal education reform, of course, started earlier than the 1992 publication of the MacCrate Report, with the advent of clinical legal education in this country and discussions about its import for the academy and the profession. There have been other important books advocating legal education reform from different perspectives. See, e.g., LANI GUINIER ET AL., BECOMING GENTLEMEN: WOMEN, LAW SCHOOLS AND INSTITUTIONAL CHANGE (1995). Although not specifically about law school admissions, another influential and important book focuses on affirmative action and its impact over time: DEREK BOK & WILLIAM BOWEN, THE SHAPE OF THE RIVER: LONG-TERM CONSEQUENCES OF CONSIDERING RACE IN COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY ADMISSIONS (1998).

For example, when a CUNY Law graduate returns to the Dominican immigrant neighborhood in which she grew up to begin a solo practice to serve the people of her community, she has access through a CLRN group subscription to Lexis Nexis, as well as access through the CLRN listserv to hundreds of other CUNY Law School alums, many of whom are experts in a range of areas that are new to her. CLRN helps new lawyers in community-based practice throughout the city to deal with the problems inherent in such practices: isolation, financial pressure, and the need to develop expertise. CLRN provides to these small practitioners serving communities in need some of the advantages that large law firm associates take for granted.").

CUNY Sch. of Law, About CUNY School of Law, http://www.law. cuny.edu/about.html (last visited Aug. 21, 2009). To be sure, like all law schools, CUNY Law faces its challenges in terms of addressing issues of race, privilege, and exclusion. Some faculty members are uncomfortable discussing these issues in the classroom. Paradoxically, CUNY's diversity may heighten the discomfort. There are so many vectors of difference among the student body, particularly because first-and second-generation immigrants bring varied notions of insider/outsider status to the dialog. Nevertheless, our students routinely raise issues of race and privilege and attempt to keep the dialog on these issues fresh and at the fore.

Once admitted, pipeline students take the Summer Law Institute in the summer before law school commences and, once regular coursework begins, they have access to the range of in-depth academic support programs we offer to all CUNY Law students. We could not have a successful Pipeline to Justice Program without our very strong academic support program. At CUNY, in addition to teaching the lawyering skills touted by the legal reform canon, we teach academic skills. Paying close attention to academic skills is important because we admit a group of students who have uneven undergraduate educational backgrounds

Moreover, law school clinical programs can do more of this kind of communitybased work with more diverse students. Clinics can do more to support community organizing and mobilization, including support for organizations with race and ethnicity-based constituencies. See Sameer Ashar, Law Clinics and Collective Mobilization, 14 CLIN. L. REV. 355, 356-57 (2008). By moving from individual to collective representation models, law school clinics can support more systemic solutions to the intertwined problems of racism, homophobia, misogyny, and poverty. Id.
