The UofL Law Clinic Open House and Reception showcases the UofL Law Clinic, an initiative that enables the law school to refocus legal education as a primarily (or even exclusively) classroom-based endeavor into an active, hands-on enterprise of learning by doing.

We'd like to thank all the members of the Louisville legal community, alumni, faculty, staff and students who shared in this celebration.
