Congratulations to the Ave Maria School of Law.

Now, future Supreme Court justices don't have to go to Haardvark. ("Veritas" my eye!)

In the ideological world of higher education, religious allegiances can be stumbling blocks. So it's good to see the American Bar Association granting full accreditation to Ave Maria School of Law this week. An Aug. 8 press release from the Ann Arbor, Mich., school notes that it was founded in 2000 to integrate a "Catholic world view" into a quality legal education and that, while ABA accreditation has been a slow process for some schools, Ave Maria got it done in the quickest possible time. Of course, its 100% pass rate for graduates who first took the bar exam in 2004 probably helped matters. (Thanks to OpinionJournal for the heads up.)
