School of Government

"The foundation that I developed from my coursework, extracurricular activities, and opportunities in the Helms School of Government proved invaluable as I began my career on Capitol Hill. Without a solid footing in my worldview, I would not have been as firm in my principles as I am today."

"In learning to brief cases, I was able to recognize key rules and rationale from a court case. This has been invaluable for my time in law school as I came in with skills that most others had to acquire during the first few weeks of school."

"The Helms School of Government was instrumental in developing my critical thinking skills. I was challenged in my own assumptions and learned to think systematically and consistently."

"The faculty at the Helms School of Government are some of the most well-trained, passionate, and caring individuals that I have had the privilege of knowing. They prepared me academically and taught me the practical skills I needed for a successful career in law enforcement."
