Why GW Law?
Courtney G. Joslin
“I’m so thrilled to be joining the vibrant GW Law community, including the outstanding family law faculty, starting in Fall 2023."
Heidi H. Liu
"I was drawn to GW Law by the vibrant research community and how it pairs intellectual rigor with compassion. I’m excited for the opportunity to learn from colleagues who are at the forefront of law and policy conversations and who are deeply engaged with the real-world impact of their work.”
Tania N. Valdez
“I am thrilled to join the GW Law community, given the stellar reputation of the law school and its leadership, the faculty’s dedication to impactful scholarship and excellence in teaching, and the motivation and brilliance of the student body. GW Law’s location in the nation’s capital also makes it the perfect academic home for me, as an immigration scholar seeking to remain connected to migrant communities while shedding light on their relationship to the branches of government.”
Kathryne Young
“GW Law is on an amazing trajectory, with a serious commitment to policy work, cutting-edge empirical scholarship, and hands-on legal education. After a day of talking to the faculty, staff, and students here, I knew I wanted to be a part of it. I’m thrilled to join such a dynamic community of scholars.”
