Willamette University
President Stephen Thorsett and
Dean Curtis Bridgeman of the Willamette University College of Law visited UAA last week to meet with
UAA Provost "Bear" Baker and
Justice Center faculty about the launch of the 3+3 program.
The schools recently signed a memorandum of understanding to offer this innovative program allowing students to complete a bachelor’s degree and a law degree in 6 years, rather than the usual 7 years. Students in Alaska will now have another option for attending law school.
Prof. Deb Periman, J.D., Legal Studies Program Coordinator at the UAA Justice Center, worked with Willamette to develop the 3+3 program and will be UAA’s point of contact for program advising.
Go to the
UAA Justice Center web page for program information.
