Scalia Law Celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month

Profiles from Our Community

“As a night student, I found my professors to be absolutely first-rate and my classmates dedicated professionals with a hunger to learn the law. The entire experience was incredibly inspiring because above all, I found a spirit of generosity and concern for our fellow community members. I know that the interactions that have made the greatest difference in my life were those where I was touched by a concern or word of encouragement from a friend or colleague. We all have the power to make a difference in the lives of others, and although Justice Scalia had a brilliant legal mind, I’ll remember him for the example of kindness he showed to others over the course of his life.”

“I am the first one in my family to go to law school, and the flexibility of the evening program has allowed me to attend law school while maintaining a full-time job in the military. During the last three years, I have learned a lot from the outstanding faculty. Last summer I had the opportunity to attend the NSI program in Italy and participate in the on-campus interview process through the Career Services Office. These combined experiences have prepared me to transition into a new career as an attorney.”
