Innovation in the Classroom

Breaking Down Silos

With the Fall 2009 semester, the Gonzaga University School of Law begins implementation of its new curriculum.

"The most significant change is a fresh integration between every course ... touching on Gonzaga's core values of imparting knowledge, professionalism and skill enhancement," reports preLaw magazine in a story about innovative law school programs.

Now, you will participate in a curriculum that provides practical, hands-on skills from your first semester onward.

"We're breaking down the silos ... this integration across courses will give students a real set of skills," said Dean Earl Martin.
