USD Law is powered by a community of innovative faculty, scholars, and students who are continually asking what’s next? The Most Critical Needs Fund helps the USD Law community take action—exploring new ideas, advancing existing programs, and embracing opportunities as needed.
Your gift is an investment in:
Faculty Scholarship: Support critical faculty research and scholarship, and academic publications, helping USD Law attract and retain distinguished legal scholars and produce high-impact analysis shaping the legal profession on a global scale.
Experiential Learning: Help every 1L student develop litigation skills and strategies during their first semester, followed by a spring semester focused on transactional law, giving students the practical experience they need to move beyond theory and prepare for their legal careers.
Strengthening Centers and Institutes: Support USD Law’s Academic Centers, giving faculty and students opportunities to influence some of society’s most complex challenges. Centers and Institutes supported include:
Center for Corporate and Securities Law
Center for Health Law Policy and Bioethics
Center for Intellectual Property Law and Markets
Center for Employment and Labor Policy
Center for Complex Litigation
Center for the Study of Constitutional Originalism
Institute for Law and Philosophy
Center for Computation, Mathematics and the Law
Institute for Law and Religion
Student Organizations: Fund student organizations, journals, advocacy teams, and initiatives such as the Innocence Fund—giving students opportunities to lead, collaborate, advocate, and put their legal education into practice.
Thank you for investing in the critical needs of USD Law students and equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and experiences to become the legal advocates of tomorrow.
