Dr. Jill M. Fraley
Professor of Law, Washington and Lee University School of Law
Why did I write this book?
I saw law students frustrated and anxious—feeling beat down by the experience of law school. I saw too many students too stressed.
I believe in transparency in teaching. I believe in paying attention to the well-being of students.
I care about taking the guesswork out of grades. I care about students feeling in control of their learning experience. I care about managing anxiety and depression in law school. I care about making hard work matter more than luck.
