Although our students have
diverse educational and professional experiences, nearly all encounter
difficulties transitioning to the law school environment. While the nature of
legal education can exacerbate these difficulties, professors and
administrators can work toward easing this transition. Through this program,
panelists will address pedagogical and other techniques to help bridge the gap
between students' prior experiences and law school so that they attain and
refine the skills and the resilience necessary to thrive and succeed in law
school and beyond.
