A deal’s a deal.

Dean Zak Kramer made a promise to Elon Law’s Class of 2025 if they reached an ambitious goal for first-time bar exam passage.

They didn’t just reach it. They blew past it.

So the dean had a promise to keep.

It's Residency-match season at Elon Law!

Our 1Ls and 2Ls met with attorneys and representatives from law firms, government agencies and nonprofits this week to learn about opportunities for their Residency-in-Practice.

The 10-week, full-time Residency gives every Elon Law student the opportunity to put their legal education to work alongside practicing attorneys before graduating and entering practice. Grateful to our many partners across the Triad and state for the mentorship they provide our students as they prepare to enter the profession.

Professor of Law Enrique Armijo spoke with LAist, an independent nonprofit newsroom that includes Los Angeles’ largest NPR station, about Meta’s landmark settlement over teen social media use.

Among other aspects of the case, he discussed unresolved questions about whether Section 230 and the First Amendment shield social media platforms from liability.

Armijo weighed in on the recent $18 million settlement that ended a trial over teen social media use on Meta platforms.

“What happens when we don't expect enough?”

Our Class of 2025 achieved a 90.9% first-time bar passage rate. But the story behind that number is about much more than an exam.

It’s about setting high expectations, giving students the tools to succeed, and building a community around a common goal.

“When we set high expectations, we owe students extraordinary support.”

Dean Zak Kramer shares the story behind Elon Law’s bar success — and the culture that helped make it possible — in a new column for Higher Ed Dive.

A rise in first-time bar passage wasn’t driven by a quick fix. It came from changing expectations.
