"I don’t believe I have ever participated in an environment that catered more to its students, nor one that had such variety. Last week, I was able to attend a conference on the early childhood development, I attended a debate on international law and the constitution, I had conversations with several attorneys at smaller local firms, and my weekly activities might not have been all that atypical if the 9th Circuit and Sandra Day O’Connor hadn’t held arguments at the school. Your efforts and the efforts of the faculty and staff are tremendous and are greatly appreciated."  J.D. Candidate, 2012
