Background
In September 2006, the Law
School created a new Director of Bar Services
position to help students prepare for and pass
the Bar Exam. The position is the result of a
study commissioned and conducted by faculty members
as part of their ongoing commitment to excellence
in legal education.
The services provided by the
Director of Bar Services are intended to be an
addition to and not a replacement for the other
bar preparation course and resources, such as
Professor Astorino's year-round review classes
and the commercial programs. The Director will
administer the bar preparation program, encourage
student participation and work with students
individually and in small study groups.
