Family Day is an event that the law school has sponsored to help the support network of students (parents, spouses and significant others) understand what a law student goes through and how they can best support their own law student as they go through this journey. In the first hour, a panel consisting of spouses and parents of students, an alum with his/her spouse and a current student discusses their experiences and gives advice to those who attend. In the second hour, Dean Lewis teaches a mock class to simulate a typical class experience. We are encouraging 1Ls and 2Ls to have their support network come to this event. Family Day is in conjunction with reunion weekend. In the past, SBA has sold merchandise in the Atrium before and after this program.
