School Location
LJST is not a pre-law program designed to serve the needs of those contemplating
careers in law. While medical schools have prescribed requirements for admission,
there is no parallel in the world of legal education. Law schools generally advise
students to obtain a broad liberal arts education; they are as receptive to students
who major in physics, mathematics, history or philosophy as they would be to students
who major in LJST.

LJST majors will be qualified for a wide variety of careers. Some might do
graduate work in legal studies, others might pursue graduate studies in political
science, history, philosophy, sociology, or comparative literature. For those
not inclined toward careers in teaching and scholarship, LJST would prepare
students for work in the private or public sector or for careers in social service.
