Catherine Christopher

Associate Dean

Texas Tech University School of Law

Introduction

Catherine (Cassie) Christopher is a Professor of Law and the Associate Dean for Bar Success at Texas Tech University School of Law. Her teaching, scholarship, and service are almost entirely aimed toward one goal: Helping students pass the bar exam. Professor Christopher teaches primarily bar preparation and academic support classes. Her scholarship, in a variety of formats, speaks to both law students and law faculties about how best to prepare and support students taking the bar exam. As the Associate Dean for Bar Success, Professor Christopher spearheads several school-wide initiatives, both curricular and extracurricular, designed to build bridges from law school to the bar exam and on into practice.
