As part of the Public Service Career Fair, join Heather Jarvis, attorney and student loan expert for this briefing and dedicated Q&A for borrowers. After you register online, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

Scores of experienced public service workers have been frustrated in their attempts to qualify for loan cancellation under Public Service Loan Forgiveness. They were told they had the “wrong kind” of loans or that payments they made “didn’t count” towards the 120 qualifying payments required to earn forgiveness.

On Oct. 6, 2021, the U.S. Department of Education announced a Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Limited Waiver Opportunity. For a limited time, restrictive requirements regarding loan type and repayment plan have been waived.

Also, the Biden administration is conducting a negotiated rulemaking process including revisions to the regulations governing PSLF and Income-Driven Repayment. New rules will be finalized and implemented by the summer of 2023.

About Lee Gelernt:

Gelernt has worked at the ACLU’s national office in New York since 1992 and has litigated civil rights cases in courts across the country and at every level, including the U.S. Supreme Court. As an example, Gelernt successfully argued a national class action challenge to the Trump Administration’s practice of separating immigrant families at the border. In 2018, a federal court issued an injunction in Ms. L. v. ICE holding the practice unconstitutional and requiring the Administration to reunite the thousands of separated families. Find his complete biography here.

This event is co-sponsored by the Human Rights Law Society.

Please join us for a Zoom discussion with human rights and criminal defense lawyer Nancy Hollander on Wednesday, February 23rd from 6:00 until 7:15 PM. Before the event, we encourage you to watch The Mauritanian, which depicts Hollander’s representation of Guantanamo detainee, Mohamedou Ould Slahi (Jodie Foster won a Golden Globe for her performance as Hollander.) The film will spark a discussion about the role of criminal defense lawyers in protecting human rights at Guantanamo Bay and beyond.

Nancy Hollander is an internationally recognized criminal defense attorney, well-known for representation of individuals and organizations accused of crimes the government deems related to national security. In addition to Ould Slahi, whose release she secured after fourteen years of detention at Guantanamo Bay, Hollander’s clients include Chelsea Manning and Abd Rahim Al-Nashiri. Though she has successfully represented Al-Nashri twice before the European Court of Human Rights, he is currently detained in Guantanamo Bay where he faces the death penalty. Hollander is a partner at Freedman, Boyd, Hollander & Goldberg P.A in Albuquerque, NM, an associate tenant at London’s Doughty Street Chambers, and of counsel with Savolainen Avocats, a Geneva-based firm.

The discussion will be moderated by Professors Karen Engle and Ranjana Natarajan. Professor Natarajan is the director of the Civil Rights Clinic at Texas Law and has been involved in representation of Guantanamo detainees and other post 9/11 national security litigation. Professor Engle is Minerva House Drysdale Regents Chair in Law and co-directs the Rapoport Center. She has written critically about the human rights movement’s reliance on criminal prosecution as its principal enforcement mechanism.

We encourage you to register as soon as possible. UT students, staff, and faculty will be provided with a link to watch The Mauritanian for free. All others are welcome to join us for the event and can view the movie for a fee through streaming services, such as Hulu, Showtime, YouTube, Apple TV, and Amazon Prime.
