Wanted: Native Hawaiian law students - LSAT prep


Rec'd from email via Derek K...

"In order to preserve our people, culture, and lands, we must take an active role in this [legal] system. The law is limiting, but it can be, it must be, and it has been, used to advance the rights of Hawaiian people. That is why I view increased participation by Hawaiians in the legal process as a positive step."
—Spoken by Chief Justice William S. Richardson on August 5, 1988.

'Ahahui O Hawai'i, the Hawaiian law student organization at the Richardson School of Law, is looking for Native Hawaiians eligible and interested in applying to law school. 'Ahahui O Hawai'i will be providing a workshop for Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) preparation. 

For a person to be eligible to apply to law school they must "receive a baccalaureate degree from an accredited university or college of approved standing before they begin their work at the School of Law."

LSAT preparation is a vital part of the law school application process. "The LSAT is a half-day standardized test measur[ing] acquired reading and verbal reasoning skills." 'Ahahui O Hawai'i is providing LSAT preparation classes to eligible Hawaiian law school applicants. 

The ability of 'Ahahui O Hawai'i to provide LSAT preparation to Hawaiians is made possible by a grant from the Office of Hawaiian Affairs. Unfortunately, space availability is limited. Hawaiians interested in enrolling in these workshops are encouraged to visit our website, www2.hawaii.edu/~ahahui. Applications are due (received by) Friday, April 18, 2008. Applications may be downloaded from our website.

Our next LSAT preparation workshop is geared for the October 4, 2008 LSAT.

For more information, please e-mail 'Ahahui O Hawai'i at ahahui@hawaii.edu or you may also call (808) 956-3003. For more information on the William S. Richardson School of Law visit www.hawaii.edu/law.
