Michael A. Simons
Associate Dean for Faculty Scholarship, Professor of Law

As faculty advisor to the prosecution clinic, Professor Michael Simons stresses the importance of solid, practical preparation for students. As associate dean for faculty scholarship, he is equally focused on facilitating and coordinating faculty scholarly activities.

“The great thing about the clinical experience at St. John’s is that there is such a variety of different clinical opportunities, both in subject area, and also in the different settings in which those clinics operate. The entire clinical spectrum at St. John’s gives students a chance to experience litigation, administrative proceedings, arbitration proceedings… they gain exposure to a wide variety of practice areas.”
