This attitude of concern and hospitality for others has made the LSU Law Center experience one that I will remember fondly." read more...

Legal WritingThe Legal Research and Writing Program teaches students to research legal issues in printed and computer-based sources and provides every law student with a rigorous experience in legal writing. As recently revised by the law faculty, the program will consist of two required first-year courses. The fall course will teach basic research skills in printed sources and require the preparation of objective memoranda on two legal issues. The spring course will introduce computer-assisted legal research and focus on persuasive writing. Each student will prepare an appellate brief and participate in an oral argument on the legal issues analyzed in the brief. |
