The Institute for Caribbean Law and Policy is directed by Professor Dorothea Beane and Professor Darryl C. Wilson. In 2008, the co-directors joined a faculty consortium to help draft the U.S. Virgin Islands constitution.

Mission

The Center provides a scholarly, professional foundation for the coordination of activities mutually beneficial to law students, law faculty, and the bar as well as the greater legal communities both domestically and throughout the Caribbean. These activities include educational exchanges, training, development, certifications and employment opportunities that take advantage of past and current relationships, including those related to the dynamic legal environment presently evolving in the Caribbean.

Vision

The Center strives to establish meaningful partnerships between Stetson Law School, the law schools of the Caribbean, the Caribbean Council on Legal Education, the various Caribbean bar associations, and other professional legal organizations. These partnerships will enable academic, scholarly, and professional exchanges that will significantly impact all parties involved in a positive far reaching manner.

Distinguish Yourself

 tampa_law_sunset_side

Beyond providing a strong foundation in legal doctrine, Stetson’s academic curriculum allows students to distinguish themselves through clinical programs, skills courses, and concentration and dual-degree programs for practice in specialized areas of law.

Stetson has established itself as a national leader in the areas of advocacy, elder law, higher education law and policy, and international law through its Centers for Excellence. The centers advance legal developments in these subject areas through conferences, workshops, research projects and scholarship.
