CAHSS Alumni Mentor Legal Studies Students

On October 29, 2019, Stephen Levitt, LL.M., faculty in the Department of History and Political Science (DHPS) in NSU’s College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (CAHSS), led a group of 18 Legal Studies students on a visit to the law offices of John Stevens, Esq., at Stevens & Goldwyn, PA. Stevens, is an alumnus of both CAHSS’s undergraduate legal studies program and NSU’s Shepard Broad College of Law. The visit was part of the ongoing Legal Studies Mentorship Program.

In addition to hearing from Stevens, the students were able to hear from two other alumni of the NSU Legal Studies program and the NSU’s Shepard Broad College of Law, Kim Stevens, Esq., with Robertson, Anschutz & Schneid, P.L, and Dashia Trowers. Esq., of Trowers Law Firm, P.A.

Juan Granados, a legal studies student, commented that the discussion of legal practice was extremely beneficial and he was particularly struck by John Stevens’ comment that “the most important thing in life is preparation.”
