Wednesday
Judicial Clerkship Panel
Noon - 1 p.m. in 213 and on Zoom
We'll host a panel of recent graduates who are doing clerkships so you can hear about their jobs, learn what a clerk does, and ask questions. This is a great chance to learn a bit about judicial opportunities from clerks' points of view. We'll talk about careers in the court system, as well as about judicial externship opportunities that you might be considering, too.
We hope you can join us!
