The student of law requires a variety of skills including proficient writing, critical reasoning, analytical reading and self-discipline. Good legal practice requires an appreciation of history, social and political institutions and, in general, a developed understanding of human nature. Those approaching a profession in law should possess an especially acute sense of values, since their actions will affect the lives of many people.

University law schools require the completion of a Bachelor in Arts degree, or its equivalent, before entering law school. It is suggested that the student follow a program toward an Associate in Arts degree which provides a wealth of knowledge with an in-depth study in areas of special interest to the student. All students interested in pre-law are encouraged to contact an advisor.
