The University of Hawaii's LLM Program students celebrate at their
Commencement Ceremony of the William S. Richardson School of Law. The
University of Hawaii offers a Master of Laws (LLM) degree as well as a
two-year Advanced JD Program to international students. Last fall,
students from Argentina, Finland, Germany, Japan, Korea, Philippines,
Saudi Arabia, and Taiwan enjoyed a two-day Legal-Ease workshop on legal
English as part of their law school orientation. Taught by Ms. Dena
Falken, Esq., the workshop really helped the students to learn legal
vocabulary and terms that were commonly used during their study at the
Law School. It was the perfect introduction to the study of law and gave
the students a lot of confidence to meet the challenges of studying law
in the U.S. In fact, Ms. Jeneline Nicolas, an LLM graduate from the
Philippines, was selected to give the commencement speech to represent
the LLM Program.
