In keeping with the School of Law's mission of preparing students for careers in the public interest public service, and public policy reform, we offer generous summer public interest law fellowships to all qualifying first-year law students, and to second-year students if funding is available. These summer placements help students build substantive expertise and commitment, make valuable professional contacts, and provide vitally needed legal services.
