Institute for Law Teaching and Learning
Washburn University School of Law and Gonzaga University School of Law recognize the obligations law schools owe to their students and to society to provide a learning environment that helps students achieve the highest academic standards and prepares students to assume their responsibilities as effective, moral attorneys.
The Institute for Law Teaching and Learning was established to help law schools meet those obligations. It is committed to improving the quality of teaching and learning in legal education.
