WSU Pre-Law Gets a Boost to KU

Kansas high school students seriously considering a law career can get a year’s head start at WSU with the LEAD (Legal Education Accelerated Degree) program, which provides a pathway to the University of Kansas School of Law. 

LEAD students will begin and end their educational journeys together, completing the program with a bachelor’s degree from 鶹ƽ State and a juris doctorate from KU.

“Through LEAD, we expect an espirit de corps to develop in the cohort,” Jeff Hershfield, program director and associate professor of philosophy, said. “The program is designed to really acculturate students to the legal profession.”
