Tampa Law Center. This month, the American Bar Association approved Stetson's
request to allow part-time students to take up to half of their course

"Had it not been for Stetson's part-time program, I wouldn't have even
entertained the thought of transitioning to a law career at this phase in my
life," said Darin Richter, who completed both a law degree and an MBA degree
in May 2008. Stetson's part-time program began on itsGulfport campus in 2002.

two courtrooms, theTampa division ofFlorida's Second District Court of
Appeal, state-of-the-art classrooms, and a law library with many group study
