Quote from Students and Faculty

Mahogane Reed

Class of 2016

"When comparing law schools, I was extremely concerned about not only the quality of my legal education, but also the amount of money I would end up paying for that education. I was accepted to multiple schools all over the country but stuck with LSU because I will graduate with a smaller amount of debt and will have received an excellent education."

Each summer, LSU Law students are afforded the opportunity to compete for The Public Interest Law Society (PILS) fellowships, supporting their internships or clerkships with public interest employers.

Transactional Competition

The Advocacy Programs are pleased to sponsor the Transactional Competition, an internal competition at LSU to develop students’ skills in dispute resolution, transactions, and negotiation. In each round, teams will receive a common set of facts known by all participants and confidential information known only to the participants representing a particular side. Competitors must negotiate a series of disputes, and the dispute at issue will change in each successive round.
