"The democracy and justice studies program taught me the power of curiosity and research – as well as how to communicate with people who have differing views. I’m fortunate I found a major that...gave me an understanding of deep institutionalized roots that make access to justice inequitable for so many. That understanding is essential to the practice of law."
