鈥淎nthony Bastone has gone above and beyond what is required for any advisor and mentor. Not only does Mr. Bastone prepare and provide pre-law students with the most accurate information on how to be admitted into law school, but he also takes the time to get to know all of his students. He makes a personal connection with students to ensure that they always have a friendly and supportive person on campus and to also ensure that he can help his students in the most effective way possible,鈥 鈥揓ess, CU student
