Why W&L Law?
Coming to Accepted Students Weekend this March was truly enlightening. Seeing peers eager to help one another out, combined with the beautiful hiking scene and fellow chess fiends, only solidified my decision to enroll. The biggest factors were the sense of community on campus, impressive employment outcomes, and the generosity of alumni and staff to help out current and enrolled students beyond academic success.
