Supreme Court Justices welcome new law students
Chief Justice Beatty: “Lawyers are the backbone of our democracy. If we do not have good lawyers, our democracy will fail.”
The 9-8-8 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline will connect people to the existing network of more than 200 local crisis call centers around the country. People who call or text the number will be connected to a trained counselor at a crisis center closest to them. If a local crisis center is too busy to respond right away, the call gets routed to one of 16 backup centers around the country.
The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline’s 10-digit number — 1-800-273-8255 — will remain active, but calls will be routed to 9-8-8. More details are available online at 988lifeline.org.
This fall, Charleston School of Law will be launching a new Student Wellness and Success program. The office is located on the second floor of 385 Meeting Street.
“Wellness and student mental health are priorities for our school and the South Carolina Bar, and the American Bar Association,” said Dean Larry Cunningham. “Law schools around the country are seeing more and more students with increasingly complex and severe challenges in their personal lives. By helping students acclimate healthily to law school and the profession, we will help them become successful and balanced students and attorneys.”
The Charleston School of Law is an ABA-accredited law school nationally recognized for its student-centric culture. Our faculty and staff are committed to preparing you for success both in the classroom and in the legal profession.
Chief Justice Beatty: “Lawyers are the backbone of our democracy. If we do not have good lawyers, our democracy will fail.”

Charleston School of Law has partnered with TimelyMD, the leading virtual health and well-being solution in higher education, to offer students free and equitable access to medical and mental health through the TimelyCare platform.
