Pre law students are required to choose a degree major in which
they will specialize. No one major best prepares students for
law school and no particular course of study is a prerequisite
for admission to law school. The Pre-Law Advising Committee suggests
that the best preparation for law school is a broad education
which ensures exposure to the varieties of thought about the social,
political, economic, philosophical, and cultural forces which
have shaped law and the societies it governs. Pre law students
must develop substantial skills in writing and be able to think
critically and logically.
The Pre Law Advising Committee urges students to see one of its
members as soon as they consider going to law school.
Advice on the specific character of each student's pre-law program,
help in preparation for the LSAT examination, and support in admission
to law school are the aims of each member of the committee.
