The Big Picture

The Clinical and Advocacy Programs give students the opportunity to learn by doing, through representing real people with very real problems. There are 36 clinics, so students can tackle a wide range of complex legal issues, from immigrants facing deportation and juveniles accused of serious crimes to defendants facing the death penalty.
