The LENS will keep you updated on the dynamic advancements at ASU Law. Over the past year, our leaders, faculty, staff and students have dedicated themselves to developing and implementing our strategic plan, and we continue to make significant progress. We invite you to explore our latest updates and share this resource with friends and colleagues who are interested in ASU Law news.
This August, we began a new year and a fresh start. We were pleased to see both new and returning faces as we embarked on another semester of growth and discovery. |
