Wonder what it’s really like to be a student at William Mitchell? Well, that’s what this blog is all about. I’m a student at Mitchell, currently in my second year. Each week, I’ll be writing about what I’m doing – what’s happening in class, events going on at Mitchell, volunteer and internship activities, and social events for Mitchell students. I’ll tell you about the differences between this year and my first year of law school, and hopefully you’ll gain valuable insight that will help you make the decision of whether law school, and William Mitchell, is right for you.

Did you know?  Mary says, “A great way to get started in law school is to enroll in one of Mitchell’s summer programs for incoming students.” Before beginnning law schol,  Mary attended the Summer Enrichment Program (SEP) where she was introduced to the American legal system, the process of reading statutes and cases, and legal analysis.
