Our Faculty
Our full-time faculty sets the foundation for the Law School's excellence, prominence, and impact. In the classroom, our faculty members are dedicated educators who teach our students the foundations of the law, help them build practical knowledge and skills, and prepare them to be innovators who make their mark in a fast-changing profession. Outside St. John's Law, as accomplished scholars, policy framers, and commentators, our faculty helps to shape local, national, and international legal systems and the public discourse around them.

Scholarly Life at St. John's Law
At St. John's Law, we believe that scholarship is a central part of the life of a law school. That belief animates the scholarly programs we host and our faculty's impressive scholarly output.
Through conferences, colloquia, and workshops, we bring leading legal scholars to the Law School throughout the academic year. Our academic centers offer opportunities for students, alumni, and others to explore topics of particular interest to our faculty, including civil rights and economic justice, intellectual property, race and law, alternative dispute resolution, international and comparative law, law and religion, bankruptcy, and labor law.
Our faculty members come from diverse personal, professional, and academic backgrounds, and many enjoy wide recognition in their fields. They maintain the Law School's commitment to scholarship by authoring influential books, treatises, and articles in almost every legal discipline, and their work is published in top journals, by prestigious academic presses, and through popular media outlets.
