My Journey at Daystar University School of Law: A foundation for Excellence.

Abstract

The journey through law school is not merely one of books and lectures but a journey of awakening, refined by discipline and shaped by purpose. My time at Daystar University School of Law was exactly of this journey. A beautiful molding of mind and spirit, where lessons extended far beyond the classroom walls. I still remember my first day attending law lecture, an encounter that almost made me change my career to Applied Computer Science. That morning sun rested softly over Athi River, Imani Hostel, dressed up in my navy-blue trousers, a crisp white shirt , a red tie and polished black leather shoes. I felt every bit of lawyer I hoped to become. Yet in my excitement, I forgot one small but significant detail, the coat. When I entered contract law class, Mr. Charlse Dulo, my first lecturer, paused mid-sentence, looked at me kindly but firmly, and asked me to go back and “dress like a lawyer”. I left the class that day not embarrassed, but enlightened. This day taught me my first lesson in law school, dress code as a language of appearance, discipline and respect that defines the legal profession.
