"Large law firms have their fancy, well-designed Web sites with the word 'diversity' prominently displayed. They have their diversity committees, diversity partners, mentors, affinity groups, and a host of other programs designed to attract and retain minority and women lawyers. Most important, they have their clients, Fortune 500 companies such as Wal-Mart and Sara Lee demanding that their outside counsel go beyond the white male norm. In one case, Wal-Mart went so far as to terminate its relationship with a firm for lacking diversity."
