Undergraduate Study

Any course of study that teaches the student to read and think quickly, accurately, and analytically and to write and speak well should provide an applicant with the mechanical tools necessary to perform satisfactorily in law school.

The faculty encourages those considering the study of law to take maximum advantage of opportunities to develop interpersonal skills and to obtain a broad liberal arts education, acquainting themselves with the foundations of our legal system and the problems it confronts. Such a course of study should include:

• History.
• English.
• Economics.
• Government.
• Philosophy.
• Religion.
• Sociology.
• Psychology.
• Mathematics.
• Laboratory science.

The faculty also encourages undergraduate students interested in law to become familiar and/or gain experience with statistical analysis, basic accounting principles, public speaking in a formal course of instruction or otherwise, and computer technology.
