Our 1L Orientation is designed to give you an introduction to the three main components of your law school experience: Academics, Student Life and Supports, and Social Activities.
Our goal for Orientation is to make sure that you have a solid general sense of the institution and community you are joining, how things work, and where to ask questions, before you start the school year in September. Orientation will also create space for you to get to know each other and start to build your law school community.
