2010 Program Schedule
"My summer turned out to be a treasure chest of first-in-my-lifetime and once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. Among the treasures was the opportunity I had to analyze American law in a comparative context. My experience was enhanced by the camaraderie I enjoyed with friendly Washburn students and professors, whose hearts and minds were no doubt enriched alongside my own. Being a part of Washburn Law's program is a decision I will never regret, and provided me with a summer I will never forget!"
