Abstract
In today's higher education landscape, we know student success depends on more than academics and extracurricular engagement; rather, it is the holistic well-being of students that truly promotes success. This knowledge has compelled universities to address a spectrum of challenges students face. This session illuminates the critical need for universities to provide affordable legal services to students, and the pivotal role such services play in supporting both a diverse student population and a thriving campus community.
