LIFE AT PENN

Penn Law is unique among the nation's great law schools in offering an intimate law school experience within a dynamic University environment, while simultaneously having all of the benefits of a vibrant and exciting urban location.

At Penn Law, you will have the opportunity to engage not only in a vigorous legal education, but also in myriad student activities. You will be able to sing with the Light Opera Company, dance the salsa at a Latin Law Students Association party, participate in a joint event with Wharton, and eat international foods at the LL.M. students' ethnic foods celebration. You will be able to engage in politics – at the Law School or the University, in Philadelphia, or at the national level. You will find opportunities to work on the Equal Justice Foundation Auction, (raising money to fund students working in public sector jobs), or to bring speakers to campus through one of the many substantive area student groups such as the Intellectual Property Association, or to select films for the Feminist Working Group film series. Every year, students bring new ideas for enriching the life of our community – and they receive our support and encouragement for making them a reality.

The Law School's campus is beautiful, with four connecting buildings surrounding a green, and adored, courtyard. And you are steps away from the amenities of the University of Pennsylvania, with its activities for graduate and professional students, its state-of-the-art gym and health club, and its many libraries, museums, theatres, lectures, and events.

And all of this in one of the nation's top cities! Philadelphia, with its wonderful residential neighborhoods (many convenient to the Law School), its booming restaurant scene, its art and theatre life, excellent shopping, and its great sports teams – all centrally located and served by our public transportation system – offers professional students an affordable, accessible, and exciting lifestyle. According to USA TODAY, Philadelphia is a top destination (http://www.usatoday.com/travel/destinations/2005-11-10-philly_x.htm).
