Module 1
Why Law School?
Introduction
There are lots of ways to lead, advocate, and make change, but only a few ways to bring all those things together. Becoming an attorney is one of them.
In this module, you’ll learn what a U.S. legal education looks like, what you can expect in the first year of law school, what foundational skills and knowledge you’ll develop as a student (and why they matter), how you get hands-on training in law school, and how you can make your legal training interdisciplinary.
What was it like observing the class? Was it more or less challenging than you anticipated?
What is your “Why” for coming to law school? How will you stay connected to it through your first year?
What has helped you be academically successful in the past? How will you build and sustain those things in law school?
