CURRICULUM
ÄÌÌÇÖ±²¥ Law strives to educate our students on issues that our nation and practicing attorneys face.
Recently, the Law School has significantly expanded and enhanced course offerings in the areas of race, law and social justice, including within the numerous legal clinics and Professional Development program.
