Hallmark of Successful Legal Education

"We believe that the essential hallmarks of a successful legal education include: rigorous academic coursework; innovative use of resources in the classroom; infusion of skills training and multi-culturalism into traditional courses; frequent student and faculty assessment with opportunity for feedback; and valuing student needs by listening and responding to them."
DEAN LARRY O. PUTT
