  • Summary

    You have come this far, we believe, because you are interested in improving legal education. You would like to help better prepare students for gratifying careers that serve society well. You hold that “thinking like a lawyer” is an important professional skill, but by no means all that there is to being a lawyer. You think that being a professional calls for the development of a wide range of competencies. You think that being a professional should involve the exploration of the values, guiding principles, and well-being practices foundational to successful legal practice.1 You seek to understand these competencies, values, and guiding principles better, and to turn the law school’s attention to those competencies, values, and principles in new and effective ways. You want change. You are willing to innovate.
