Mission

Our mission is two-fold:

• To serve as a site for the continued intellectual exploration of the intersections between social justice, legal processes and a diverse society that brings together the expertise of Fairhaven faculty, faculty from other departments and colleges at Western Washington University, and regional and state-wide community groups.
  This component is addressed through the Quarterly Themes.


• To serve as a site for the coordination of student advising and support activities for students who choose to pursue the Law, Diversity & Justice (LDJ) Concentration at Fairhaven, or are exploring these issues through other majors. The Law, Diversity & Justice Concentration endeavors to increase the number of people from underrepresented groups or who want to help underrepresented groups, and who are seeking careers in law and social justice.
