Books can catch students up on what they need to know for practice, but putting that knowledge to the test in a law clinic is one of the best learning experiences law school has to offer. High Point University Kenneth F. Kahn School of Law will soon be making its debut and is focused on providing its students with experiential learning opportunities. They’re starting strong with a clinic that will train students who are interested in giving back to our veterans. From WXII 12:
High Point University is going to establish a pro bono law clinic within the Kenneth F. Kahn School of Law to help veterans receive military benefits after they are denied.
It’s all thanks to a donation from Bergmann & Moore, LLC. They are based in Rockville, Maryland. It’s one of the nation’s largest law firms practicing solely in the area of veterans’ benefits.
High Point’s law school is slated to welcome its first class of students this fall.
