Academic Support Program
The goal of the
(ASP) is for students to make the most out
of their abilities. To accomplish this goal,
ASP Professors conduct weekly classes on
such diverse topics as: Legal Analysis and
Writing; Course Outlining; and Time
Management. In addition, the faculty will
conduct seminars on a variety of topics, such
as Legal Writing for Law School Exams and
Preparing for Oral Presentations, during the
course of the academic year.
The program is staffed by four full-time
members of the faculty:
(director);
All four have a
great deal of experience in legal education
and specialize in assisting students who are
struggling in law school. If you are
struggling to master any aspect of your legal
education, the professors in the Academic
Support Program can help. Students are
encouraged to contact any ASP Professor to
set up an appointment.
