Legal Studies Students Interview Lawyers

On Monday 22 May the Year 12 Legal Studies students had the privilege of having the following members from the community come to the College to be interviewed in relation to the students' Inquiry Task.

  • Ian White

To be able to have these people in one room at the one time was an exciting experience and I know the students gained an immeasurable amount of knowledge and insight from their expertise as they answered questions relating to the legal issues the students were investigating.

I wish to thank all the guest speakers this year and look forward to many more that will come into the Year 12 Legal Studies classes over the coming year. Legal Studies is a subject that Concordia students study with great interest and passion. It allows for honest discussion about contemporary legal issues that occur on a daily basis.
