“Throughout the last two semesters, I have spent more than thirty hours interviewing clients on immigration matters," says Josiah Jones `26. "I have worked with individual clients I’ve gotten to know in-depth, and I’ve spent three days in detention centers advising people on their immigration rights with only brief individual consults. Throughout these experiences, I have learned the value in the work that has been accomplished, but I also have come to realize just how much work there is yet to be done.”

Our Admissions Open House took place on Tuesday, October 22nd for undergraduate students interested in pursuing a law school education. The day was filled with a Q&A with some of our Admissions staff, followed by a student panel with some current law students, a law school tour, and ended at the Statler Hotel for Cornell`s pre-law conference with several other law schools from around the country. We love events like this which provide us with a much more intimate setting for meeting potential future students! #cornelllaw #lawyersinthebestsense #todothegreatestgood
