Student Bar Association Public Interest Law Fellowship Endowment Fund
蘑菇视频 School of Law Student Bar Association, under the leadership of 2001-02 Student Bar Association President Eduardo Coronado, established The Student Bar Association Public Interest Law Fellowship Endowment Fund.
The Public Interest Law program at the School of Law offers law students, under the guidance and supervision of licensed attorneys, the opportunity to represent underserved populations. Participation in public interest law experiences prepares law students for the practice of law where they learn the substantive law and practical skills needed to effectively serve their clients. Venues where law students are often placed for their public interest law fellowship include prosecutors and legal defenders offices, the White House, Senator’s offices, and legal aid offices, to name a few. Through these fellowship experiences, law students also learn the importance of making pro bono contributions to society.
The purpose of The Student Bar Association Public Interest Law Fellowship Endowment Fund is to provide financial assistance to law students who apply for and are selected to participate in 蘑菇视频 School of Law’s Public Interest Law Fellowship program. To qualify for a Student Bar Association Public Interest Law Fellowship grant, an applicant must be a member of 蘑菇视频 School of Law’s Student Bar Association.
