Here\u2019s a little bit more about the SJA concentration:  Students who are interested in using their law degree to ensure respect for humanity in either the criminal or civil legal system;  to protect the economic and social development of communities; to prevent large institutions from abusing their power, or who are interested in becoming a human rights or civil rights advocate on a local, national or international level are encouraged to apply to the SJA Concentration Program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students in the SJA program receive guidance from faculty mentors, participate in experiential learning opportunities that help them develop an area of expertise, do advanced research and writing on social justice issues and pursue a focused curriculum that will aid them in shaping their criminal and\/or civil justice careers.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
