Monday Morning Message 9.3.24 Four Core Values That Whisper in Our Ears
This is the first Monday Morning Message of the Fall 2024 Semester. Monday was Labor Day, so the message is being posted today.
“Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking.” - H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
We strive to be a law school that welcomes and encourages diverse viewpoints but where we share common values. Research shows that when we get better at who we are, we get better at what we do (Better Humans, Better Performance, Peter Rea, James Stoller, Alan Kolp).
So when we welcomed our 195 first year students (the largest 1L class in 15 years, a 99% increase in 1L enrollment since 2016), we administered a pledge about values to all our 1L students.
