Purpose:
This course provides a theoretical, vocational, and legal doctrinal foundation for students interested in social justice law.

To ground these theoretical explorations in real-life practice, this course features a Community-Based Learning component, enabling students to interact with real people for whom these issues matter. This course satisfies both the Experiential Learning for Social Justice requirement and the Civic Engagement requirement, and qualifies as part of the Social Justice Pathway in the University’s Core Curriculum.
