Georgetown
University Law Center is the largest, and one of the best law schools
in the country. Today, it has stunning facilities and a comprehensive
support system for its current student body. However, it wasn't always
that way. While the quality of the education was never in question, there
was a time, from the early 70s to the early 90s when the quality of life
at GULC was not everything it is today.
As
might be expected of students, and especially law students, they complained.
Georgetown listened, but they also acted. Since many of those earlier
students are now successful judges, lawyers, faculty members, government
leaders, and business people working throughout the world, it would be
a good thing to let them know that their complaints did not fall on deaf
ears.
Georgetown's Dean, Judy Areen, mailed this video, along with a letter, to the 10,000 students who graduated during the 70s and 80s with an invitation to return to campus and take a look. She's right: there is a lot to see.
