When You Should Visit
We encourage you to visit when classes are in session. This will give you an opportunity to attend a class and to talk with current students and faculty. You may want to view our academic calendar to find those dates - and to avoid exam time.
If you find it necessary to visit outside of regular office hours (8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.) or on a holiday, the law school may still be open. When the Kathrine R. Everett Law Library is open (hours), you may freely enter the building through the side door. Maps, self-guided tour sheets, and more information can then be found in the Portico on the 5th floor.
Scheduling a Visit
The Office of Admissions offers student led tours on a regular basis. Student led tours are available from September to April. Let us know when you would like to visit and we'll provide you with times that tours and class visitations will be offered. Official tours and class visitations for the spring semester will begin the week of January 22, 2013.
Spring tours and class visitations of the law school will not be conducted on the following dates:
- Friday, March 8, 2013 through Friday, March 15, 2013 (Spring Break Recess)
- Friday, March 29, 2013 (Good Friday)
- Friday, April 5, 2013 (Admitted Students
Day)
- Friday, April 12, 2013 (Admitted Students Day)
The last day we will
offer guided tours and class visitations will be Thursday, April 11, 2013. Tours are available Monday through Friday at 12:00 p.m. Class visitations are not available on Fridays during the fall semester.
As a courtesy to our students and faculty, we kindly ask that visitors refrain from asking questions of the professor during their class visit. Additionally, we ask that visitors who wish to speak with the professor after their class visit do so only after all our current law students have had a chance to speak with the professor. Please turn all cell phones off.
NOTE: Please provide at least five days notice when scheduling your visit.
