The Penn State Law Experience
Dean's Welcome

The past six years for Penn State Law have been extraordinary: over thirty outstanding new faculty appointments; an investment of over $130 million in new signature facilities; an integrated international curriculum second to none; a dramatic elevation of the academic credentials and diversity of our student body; and substantial ongoing financial support from a university committed to the Law School’s recognition as one of the top major research university law schools in the nation. One of the most exciting aspects of this transformation has been the resulting enthusiasm among other leading Penn State scholars and academic units for collaborative relationships with the Law School, thus catapulting our faculty to the forefront of interdisciplinary collaboration and exchange.   Please take a moment to acquaint yourself with the results of Penn State’s investment and efforts and with the outstanding law school that has emerged.     PHILIP J. McCONNAUGHAY Dean and Donald J. Farage Professor of Law
