As institutions of higher learning throughout the country are deciding on plans for reopening amid the COVID-19 pandemic, law school deans in Connecticut are responding to a report outlining recommendations for a planned phased reopening of universities in the Nutmeg State.

The dean of the University of Connecticut School of Law said his law school plans on following the recommended guidelines via a report educators put forth and which Gov. Ned Lamont announced May 6. And he said the school might even go farther.
