Dear Admitted Students,

I am delighted to extend my heartfelt congratulations on your admission to the Kenneth F. Kahn School of Law at High Point University! On behalf of the entire faculty and staff, I welcome you to our law school community. Our holistic approach to legal education means that you will learn the knowledge, skills, and values to help you flourish as a lawyer-leader in the legal profession and wherever else your career takes you. Plus, our small class sizes, low faculty-student ratio, and professional mentoring for all students mean that you will learn in a supportive community designed to help you understand your unique professional calling.

Your admission is a testament to your outstanding achievements, dedication, and potential as a future legal professional. You are beginning a remarkable journey into the legal profession—a journey I began many years ago and that has taken me through amazing professional opportunities. From my role as a law firm litigator, to counsel for the North Carolina governor, to serving on the bench of the trial, appellate, and Supreme Courts in North Carolina, to now serving as a law school dean—all these positions were made possible by my law degree. Be encouraged! I am excited to see where your professional journey will take you!
