Spring 2025 Orientation

Each year, students begin their study at BU Law with a dynamic and interactive orientation program designed to position students for success and prepare them for legal study in the United States.  Orientation is mandatory and will occur on Thursday January 9 and Friday January 10, 2025.  Attendance at orientation is mandatory and can be excused only upon express permission by the director.

You’ve Got Homework! — Cases for Workshops!  

We will be using two cases as a point of discussion in several orientation workshops, so it is important that you read them in advance of orientation.

Van Tassel v.McDonald Corp., 497 N.W.2d 6 (Mich. 1987).  The case is linked to here.
