The
Charleston
School of Law is where traditions meet opportunity. The school
provides a dynamic, rich academic environment in the friendly city
of Charleston, South Carolina, where 600 students study the time-honored
practice of law.
The
Charleston School of Law Foundation serves as a non-profit organization
that promotes the mission of the Charleston
School of Law. It works with the law school to support its high-quality
legal training and to instill a sense of public service in students.
"The
Foundation is completely committed to supporting the law school's
missions of public service, social advocacy, legal outreach and
legal reform," said Foundation President Liesl Westbrook. "We
want to ensure that the school has the resources it needs to excel
in these endeavors."
As
outlined on this informational video about
the Foundation, "giving back" is a major theme that permeates
the Charleston School of Law. It is one of the handful of law schools
in the country that requires students to perform at least 30 hours
of public service work to graduate.
"We
hope our graduates will share the common value when they graduate
that part of their service as attorneys is to give back to their
communities and make them a little better," Charleston School
of Law Dean Richard Gershon added.
