Pre-LawAll educational institutions which give law degrees recommend that law students obtain a broad, general background before entering law school. Courses in history, philosophy, political science, psychology and sociology contribute liberally toward this preparation. It is anticipated that students entering Weber who contemplate a law degree will be able to obtain an adequate three-year pre-law program. Some students may find it advisable to obtain a baccalaureate degree before entering law school. International Relations ClubThis club, although sponsored by the Division, is open to all students of Weber College. Its special purpose is to increase interest in and develop a better understanding of international affairs. HISTORY Courses of Instruction 1. World CivilizationBeginnings to the 17th century.
