The Student Bar Association is one of the best in the nation, which is a reflection of the close relationship between the students and the administration, who 鈥渕ake a clear effort to engage students on the decisions of the law school.鈥 GW Law鈥檚 Dean is a 鈥渢errific fundraiser and cheerleader,鈥 and even normally teaches a 1L Criminal Law class. The emphasis placed upon professors鈥 teaching abilities is reflected in the inclusion of a student panel on the Faculty Appointments Committee, where students鈥 views as reflected in their reports to the faculty are 鈥済iven serious consideration during the appointment process.鈥 It shows, too, as the professors at GW are first-rate; there are 鈥渟o many 鈥榤ust-takes鈥 here that you are guaranteed a great professor (at least by reputation) for each major doctrinal course.鈥 Indeed, GW Law professors are well-known locally and nationally, and 鈥渋t鈥檚 not unusual to attend a professor鈥檚 class, and then later see him or her on the television that evening.鈥 These superstars are approachable as well, and 鈥測ou would be hard-pressed to go to a student function and not find a friendly face from the faculty and staff enjoying time away from the formal school setting and lending their wisdom and wit to the outside student life.鈥 Classes mix theory and practice, placing an emphasis on didactic ability, and 鈥渢here can be a little tough love involved鈥 if needed. Each lecture 鈥渋s an experience,鈥 and while the Socratic Method is used, it is used 鈥渧ery gently, and tends to create more of an open discussion format than a fear-invoking grilling process.鈥 However, students would like to see their torts class expanded to two semesters. The student culture and atmosphere at GW Law rounds out the experience, as 鈥減eople actually like each other and enjoy a good conversation, whether studying or not.鈥
