NOTE: I am based at Penn State’s Dickinson Law, which is the older of Penn State’s two ABA-accredited law schools. It is located in
Carlisle, Pennsylvania, 20 minutes from Pennsylvania’s state capital of
Harrisburg; two hours north of our nation’s capital of Washington, D.C.; and
within a one hour or less commute of a federal district court and seven
different state [county] courthouses. At
Penn State’s Dickinson Law, our Core Principles include teaching, scholarship,
service, and community. All of our faculty members have practiced law and we aspire
to vest in our students the entire range of concrete lawyering skills necessary
to most effectively perform as legal professionals at the local, state,
national, transnational, and international levels in the twenty-first century. We are also engaged in a quest for knowledge
and wisdom that we can share not only with our students but also with legal
professionals, scholars, policy makers, and others, consistent with Penn
State's role as a world-class research university.
