OCU Law students are now only 鈥渁 few blocks from both state and federal courthouses and several large law firms,鈥 which 鈥減resent phenomenal opportunities to get plenty of training.鈥 Students are 鈥渁ble to walk to the county courthouse between classes to watch trials.鈥 One student added that the new location 鈥渋s great for networking; I meet Judges and attorneys on a daily basis.鈥 Students also appreciate that the school 鈥渁llows a generous number of credit hours to be satisfied with practical skills [courses].鈥 In fact, most students agree that the 鈥渃linical and externship offerings and practical skills courses, like trial practice and pretrial litigation,鈥 are among the school鈥檚 greatest strengths. Clinics like 鈥渢he school鈥檚 American Indian Wills Clinic where鈥 students learn 鈥渢o draft estate planning devices for Native American clients,鈥 help students learn 鈥渉ow to understand and conform to鈥 a client鈥檚 wishes and 鈥渢ranslate their oral concerns into artfully drafted legal documents.鈥 These clinics help develop 鈥渟kills that improve attorney-client relationships and performance in any legal office,鈥 skills 鈥渢hat most attorneys do not begin to develop until [they are] actually in practice.鈥 Students say that 鈥済etting this head start鈥 makes them 鈥渕ore marketable and flexible in any work environment.鈥
Some students praise the school for trying 鈥渢o accommodate even more working adults, moms with children, adults returning for career change, police officers and those with disabilities鈥 by offering night classes. Though, this has caused friction with some traditional students who find 鈥渢hat the class scheduling is very difficult to work with鈥 鈥渂ecause many classes are only offered at night鈥 and 鈥渕ost electives were offered exclusively at night,鈥 others enjoy that the schedule is flexible enough to 鈥渨ork with people who have commitments that keep them busy during the day.鈥 But students universally applaud the professors of those classes as coming 鈥渇rom some of the most respected schools around the nation and [as being] highly regarded as experts in their specialized fields.鈥
