Georgetown Law is a diverse community. Students respond that the best thing about the law school is Georgetown's reputation as an academic leader – and the location in the heart of Washington, D.C.  Members of the Law Center faculty have served key roles in shaping, enforcing, challenging and defending the law in all its forms in addition to teaching. The top–ranked clinical programs give students hands–on experience in over a dozen areas of law. More than 90 percent of the cases heard by the Supreme Court are mooted first by the Supreme Court Institute. Georgetown Law’s reach stretches far beyond national boundaries; it has an unparalleled environment for transnational education and scholarship. Intellectually and geographically, Georgetown Law is the place where law and ideas meet.
