  • You’re never too young to learn about being an attorney! This morning Dean Strickland was a guest lecturer in an 8th grade class at University Middle School at the University of Memphis, where he spoke about the many places and various career paths that getting a law degree and being an attorney can take you. Even more impressive, this was just the first of many guest lecture slots for this class that will be filled by Memphis Law students and faculty members this semester, all of which are being coordinated by our Street Law student organization and its current president, 3L Sarah Mangroo.

  • Shakespeare had it right when he said, "Do as adversaries do in law, strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.” We hope this year brings you all the happiness, fellowship, and friendship you deserve! May you thrive in 2025! Happy New Year from Memphis Law!
