“Injustice is both systemic and a choice, and I choose not to perpetuate the problem. I see the unification of our differences as a necessity. The powerful influence of a law degree at San Joaquin College of Law will equip me to be the voice others need.”

“I am a first generation college student who grew up in a small town called Le Grand. Choosing a law school in a region where the job market for attorneys is promising is the primary reason I chose San Joaquin College of Law for my legal education. With no other law schools nearby, we have our pick of externships and jobs once we graduate.”
