HONOR S STUDENT TESTIMONIALS
“The Honors Program has greatly enhanced my professional and legal development while studying at Liberty Law. I have had the opportunity to talk with influential judges, be mentored by faculty, and interact with some of the top students at Liberty Law. I highly recommend the Honors Program to any student seeking to take their legal education to a new level of scholastic and professional development.” CL A SS OF 2 020 “The Honors Program has been such a blessing to me. As a Christian professional, I strive to attain the highest levels of excellence in academics, service, and professionalism. The Honors Program encourages me and holds me accountable. The greatest asset of the Honors Program, however, is the man in charge of it. Professor Lucas is dedicated to excellence and a fantastic asset for the development of Honors Program students. I highly recommend it to anyone who seeks to pursue excellence.” CL A SS OF 202 1 “The program gives students an amazing opportunity to connect with each other in a small group setting and meet successful alumni who are willing to share their advice with us. And to top it all off, a student who was in my place just a year ago and was extremely successful will be mentoring me throughout the year.” CL A SS OF 202 2
