The individuals who founded the Charleston School of Law recognized the inequities that exist among South Carolinians. They expressed their concern for addressing these deficiencies in the school's mission statement which identifies the following objectives among others:

  • To teach the practice of law as a profession, having as its chief aim providing public service, and

  • To teach the law as a means of providing relief for those who suffer because they are helpless, weak, outnumbered, or because they are victims of prejudice.
