"Never did I think that I would use my language skills for such a noble cause until I began working with Professor Denbeaux.  Speaking to people halfway around the world in the interests of justice while working to bring out the truth in Guantanamo Bay has led me to a stronger appreciation of the research the Center is doing."

"Truth in Guantanamo Bay goes beyond political party affiliation or partisan concerns. Redressing wrongs there, if they do exist, strengthens and solidifies us as the greatest nation on the face of the planet. God Bless the United States and the Center for Policy and Research."

"I first heard about Professor Denbeaux and the Center for Policy and Research while reading "The Dark Side" by Jane Mayer and it ended up being one of the main reasons I chose Seton Hall Law School over other law schools. The Center has provided me with a unique opportunity to see how the law is applied or at least is supposed to be applied in the real world away from the casebooks."

"Prior to starting at SHU Law, I had heard about and read some of the reports produced by the Center for Policy and Research.  The work that the Center does was particularly interesting to me because of my background in political science and coursework in human rights.  Working for the Center has allowed me to continue pursuing my interests in public policy analyses while also expanding my knowledge as we consider the application of our findings to the law."
