Learning From Experience

Tune in to the Learning From Experience podcast each month as alumni from The College share their personal stories of successes and failures and tips for navigating the real world after graduation.

Preparing for law school with Courtney Barger

"'Perfect' is an illusion. Let yourself enjoy the experience and let yourself learn," said Courtney Barger.

Barger earned two degrees from The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences in 2020, one in economics and the other in justice studies. She then went on to complete law school.

Listen to Barger discuss how her dual degrees helped her become an adaptable law student.
