A Law School Forum on Human Cell-Lines and Frozen Embryos
I was told that law school would be an academic nightmare; that my eyes would be fixed on a casebook for all hours of the day, and that I would not see sunlight for three years. The Ave Maria School of Law is proving to be anything but that. I can assure you, my eyes seem to be perpetually fixed upon that casebook. In spite of that, the academic community has yet b)en able to provide our minds and souls with something greater. Our moral and theological discussions of historical cases, such as Moore and Davis, may not pertain directly to the classroom, but they do prepare our spirits for the legal profession in a way that most conventional law schools could not. We are learning to look beyond the mere rationale of courtroom decisions. We also learn exactly how close to (or how far from) man 's sense of justice can come to God's, and what effect our decisions will have on the world as a whole. (Adam Frey, Class of2003)
