  mentoring_philosophy: 'Research assistants will be treated as collaborators in the project, with responsibilities matched to their interests and growth goals. I emphasize structured guidance and clear expectations, while also encouraging independence and initiative. Students will gain experience in survey design, data management, and policy-oriented research. Regular check-ins will provide opportunities for feedback, skill-building, and discussion of broader academic and professional applications of the work.'

  overall_research_project_description: 'This project investigates how U.S. law schools administer and regulate academic accommodations, with particular focus on exam-related adjustments such as extended time. The research explores questions of fairness, professional preparedness, and institutional policy variation. We will survey all American Bar Associated-accredited law schools to better understand how accommodation decisions are made, whether limits are imposed, how prior accommodations influence current eligibility, and whether targeted skill-building support accompanies accommodations. This project will contribute to ongoing discussion about how law schools can best prepare students for long-term professional development while maintaining academic integrity and fairness in curve-based assessment.'
