On accountability, Tessa reminded the students to “Remember to apply the facts to the law as they are, not as you wish they were … You owe that duty to the courts, to the Bar, to your community, to yourself, and to your clients.”<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TU4awjAgzWY&feature=youtu.be" target="_blank">Watch the full video</a>.
