    “"When I think of Delaware Law faculty, hospitable comes to mind. Ever since spending time on the campus as a member of the Jurist Academy in undergraduate, and now, as a law student, all the staff have been warm, welcoming and genuinely care. Little things like holding doors for students, remembering our names in the hallways and taking the time to connect with the person, not just the grade, show they care. In addition, the quality of education we receive at Delaware Law School is because the professors take the time to ensure we embark on practical experience in the field and ensure we succeed in all we do with their guidance, advice, and leadership." ”

    “"Delaware Law School provides invaluable experiences both inside and outside of the classroom. The ability to take advantage of hands-on skill based classes, clinical and fellowship opportunities, and internships gave me a solid foundation to my legal career. Working as a Wolcott Fellow for the Supreme Court of Delaware, I had the opportunity to research and analyze a variety of appellate issues, as well as observe oral arguments before the Court. This unique opportunity helped bridge the gap between law school and the legal profession and allowed me to apply what I learned in law school to real facts and cases. I am confident that Delaware Law provided me the requisite knowledge and skills to succeed." ”
