Abstract

I teach because I want our profession to be infused with integrity. I want my students to learn to use professionalism as the everyday lenses through which they view their legal practices, rather than to compartmentalize ethics into just another class or bar exam topic.

Keywords: professionalism, integrity, ethics, legal education, law practice

JEL Classification: K00, K1, K3, K4, Z00
