    Testimonials(1)

    • I joined the program because I'm trying to explore law, and it's something I'm very passionate about. I'm trying to broaden my horizons, and it's been an amazing opportunity. We just got to do two court cases right now. I feel like the misconception about summer programs is that you're wasting your summer by doing some work, but I'm learning a lot. I came here to learn more about different types of law, and I've learned so much more than I could ever imagine. And being around these kinds of people who are interested in the same thing as me, and being able to have intellectual conversations about this is just so, like, such an amazing experience to have. I'm so grateful that I came here."
