Texas A&M University - School of Law

And speaking of professors, Texas A&M manages to attract “absolutely incredible” instructors who “are at the top of their field” and “always seem to [have] a smile on their face.” The vast majority are also inclined to “go above and beyond to help students.” One individual further explains, “I have not met a single staff member who did not genuinely seem to want the students to do well. “ A classmate concurs adding, “I have never been made to feel that a faculty or staff member was too busy to answer my question or connect me with a colleague that practices in my areas of interest.”

Texas A&M’s administration also does a stellar job. Although in a period of “transition,” the folks here are wholly “accessible” and strive to make sure that “every student is heard.” Indeed, “if you have a question about something or want to see a change in how the school is being operated, there is always an avenue where [you] can be heard.” These opportunities range “from ‘Dean town halls’ every semester [to] faculty open door policies and quarterly student leadership meetings with various [administrators].”

Students do note that the law school building itself is probably the biggest issue because the “limited space creates some scheduling challenges.” Fortunately, this problem is tempered by the fact that “there is a new building project in the works.” Moreover, we’ve been assured that with “careful planning most students can take the classes they want despite the scheduling difficulties.” And many individuals remark that “the library does a great job at having resources available for students and they are very responsive with getting books via inter-library loan.”
