A new DVD that follows eight students through their first
year of law school includes Marty Peters, professor of legal
education.
"The
Trials of Law School" gives an insider's view of the
first year at the University of Oklahoma College of Law. The
87-minute DVD includes interviews with students and law
faculty from across the country about the unique nature of
law school and the pressures associated with it.
Peters discusses the adjustment many law students need to
make from the way they studied in high school or college.
"A certain amount of (law school) is endurance,"
Peters says. "Students who build their endurance over
the semester tend to do better....The main stressor for
first-year students is the uncertainty of law school
study."
