For Amanda (Mandy) Howerton-Fox ÄÐÅ®²Ù±ÆÊÓƵÈí¼þ™27, deciding to attend law school was not just a career shiftÄÐÅ®²Ù±ÆÊÓƵÈí¼þ”it was a natural continuation of her lifelong commitment to advocacy. A former teacher of the deaf, MandyÄÐÅ®²Ù±ÆÊÓƵÈí¼þ™s passion for special education and disability rights first led her to pursue a PhD and become a tenured professor of education. Now, she has embarked on a new path at the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at ÄÐÅ®²Ù±ÆÊÓƵÈí¼þ, with a goal of effecting change through law and policy while advocating for people directly.
