Our laws are based on and reflect the basic values of the society in which we live. How do social, political, philosophical, and economic considerations influence and reflect these laws? Questions such as these encourage us to look at the complexity of the law within society and its institutions. Why Legal Studies? While professional legal training in the United States is reserved for American law schools, the study of law as a part of a society and its culture is an important component of a liberal arts education. At PLU Legal Studies is an interdisciplinary program of study focusing on the nature of law and judicial process. Consistent with the purposes of the American Legal Studies Association, a Minor in Legal Studies provides alternative approaches to the study of law drawn from classes in social sciences, humanities, the arts, business, and education. Your professors emphasize the development of a critical understanding of the functions of law, the sources of the legal tradition, and the mutual impacts of law and society. You will pursue these objectives through courses, directed research, and internships in offices and agencies involved in making, enforcing, interpreting, and communicating "the law" in contemporary American civil society.
