Course Description
Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.
Spanish is the most frequently spoken non-English language in the United States. According to the Migration Policy Institute, Spanish is the predominant language spoken by limited-English-proficient (LEP) individuals in this country, with roughly 64 percent (16.2 million) of all LEP individuals speaking Spanish. The legal profession has a responsibility to competently serve all LEP communities, and lawyers with Spanish language-accessible practices are an important resource. To support Spanish learning at the law school, we are offering this ungraded Spanish conversation course for students who are concurrently enrolled in one of the in-house clinics. To apply for the course, submit your resume and a brief statement describing your Spanish language ability. Once clinic registration is final, we will confirm that you have joined one of the in-house clinics and reach out to you regarding next steps, which may include a brief phone call to check your level of Spanish. The course will be taught by a clinical professor and a bilingual law student TA.
