Relationship Between Admissions Committee And The Composition Of Lawyers

Recently, I participated in a campus tour that was led by Ms. Keli Huang. The visit provided me with a better understanding of what Cardozo Law School has to offer. Cardozo Law undeniably has an outstanding reputation among legal institutions, along with brilliant professors who are truly invested in their student’s studies. However, the inviting community is what really sets it apart from other law schools. Ms. Huang raved about the supportive and friendly environment among the students. The welcoming atmosphere at Cardozo Law offer the students an unparalleled legal education that cultivates energetic strong class of attorneys; it is a community I would be honored to be part of.

I define myself as a curious researcher and reflective practitioner who perceives legal education as a combination of passion and practicality. Whereas my idealistic side wants to thoroughly understand the development of global legal ethics, my pragmatic side asks what actions should be taken by lawyers to solve international legal problems. Hence, Penn Law’s core strengths in providing a remarkably interdisciplinary learning experience and the program of Legal Practice Skills will be the bridge to my academic and professional aspirations.

The solid set of skills I have amassed through my volunteer, professional and academic career all have equipped me with the drive, work ethic, and capability to succeed in law school. I wholeheartedly believe that the University of Windsor, with its unique focus on research, providing a broader perspective on the legal process and theory, is the school that I can meet my full potential. And more importantly, the legal education offered at the University of Windsor will prepare me to fully and effectively act as both an advocate and advisor to any client or entity I go on to

Legal Question: The legal issue presented in this case ultimately questioned the University of Michigan’s admission policy which sought a more diverse student body. The court addressed whether the University of Michigan’s use of racial preferences in the admission process violated

The official version of the law (OVL) is “what the legal world would have us believe about itself – is that it is an impartial, neutral and objective system for resolving conflict” (Comack, 2014, p. 11). Prior to reflecting on course material I would have undoubtedly accepted the OVL, however, at this time I believe our Canadian legal system and criminal justice system lack the ability to be impartial, neutral, and objective, therefore requiring considerable changes. The chapters in which utmost enhanced my understanding of the sociology of law were “Theoretical Approaches and the Sociology of Law” by Elizabeth Comack and “Standing Against Canadian Law: Naming Omissions of Race, Culture, and Gender” by Patricia Monture as they explain and demonstrate the inequalities marginalized groups must endure at the hands of the law.

From when I was ten until I was fifteen, I wanted to become a lawyer. I’ve always had impressive public speaking skills, a persuasive personality, and a knack for debate, so it seemed like the perfect fit for me. However, upon a taking a law class my sophomore year, I realized that lawyering might not be exactly what I expected it to be. As I learned about the different laws and the complexities of the court system I was

Immersed in all this culture, a Law Degree from Loyola not only prepares its students for the Louisiana Bar Exam and all of Louisiana’s flamboyant legal terminology, rather a colorful life of art and culture, and an alcohol tolerance that could stymie a

The requirements needed to practice law today consist of an undergraduate school degree, an impressive Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) score and grade point average, a law school diploma and a successful completion of the Bar Exam. There exists no legal boundaries or barriers to the practice of law, only the desire and work to do so. Subsequently, the percentage of female students enrolled in law schools across the United States has remained at nearly half of the population of universities since 2000. This percentage is

I entered law school secure in my foundation of knowledge on access to justice barriers inherent within the Canadian criminal justice system. With that understanding, I freely commented on LGBTQ+ community, First Nations issues, class, and race. While my deeply held opinions were rooted in dismantling access to justice barriers and were “common sense” truths, they were predictable, simplistic, and misinformed, given the vast body of academic work available. The basic foundation of knowledge I held prior to this class did not prepare me fully and effectively to conceptualize and develop the understanding to discuss access to justice issues in any depth. The absence of academic knowledge that is empirically supported on these issues can be a sign of ignorance in most people, including lawyers, since they may conduct themselves in ways which shows their complicity to a flawed system of inequality. Thus, in the following essay, I will argue that any lawyer who lacks academic knowledge and holds false opinions on these key issues which are inherent in the Canadian criminal justice system, by way of barriers to access to justice, lacks the capacity to discuss these legal issues adequately.

My upbringing made me constantly aware of the prejudice, discrimination and exploitation in today’s society. Due to this, I possess a particular desire to have a pivotal impact on society by representing those from underprivileged backgrounds which fuelled an interest in equality and trust law. I soon became under the realisation that the law influences almost all aspects of day-to-day life which allowed me to appreciate the significance of it. This encouraged me to take law at higher education. With my career aspiration in the world of law in mind, I perused A Levels which would allow me to gain numerous skills which I could apply across the board.

In LE 101 otherwise known as the Introduction to Legal Systems “students are introduced to the American system of law and legal structure, and gain an overview of several areas of law. Topics include basic legal, concepts, the structure of the American court system, as well as legal theory and procedure” (Quinnipiac Course Catalog). Although I am not planning on going into any legal field it is important to have a general understanding of how our legal system functions and how it maintains social structure in our society. This course is very different from most of my classes as the focus is on reading the law and past cases and interpreting the significance and the impact that these cases have had on our societal development. By taking this
