Personal experience addendum

Since 2002, ASU has been committed to inclusive excellence. Our charter states that ASU is "a comprehensive public research university, measured not by whom it excludes, but by whom it includes and how they succeed; advancing research and discovery of public value; and assuming fundamental responsibility for the economic, social, cultural and overall health of the communities it serves." With this in mind, please discuss what experiences and perspectives you would bring to the ASU Law community.
