Join the Justice Center's Student Advisory Board as we begin our monthly Public Interest Office Hours! These sessions are aimed at providing peer support for students who want to learn more about public interest lawyering. This month, members of the Student Advisory Board will be available to answer any questions students have about internships, classes, and more. If you're a 1L who is not sure where to begin on your public interest journey, this is also for you! Your Student Advisory Board is here to support you in forging that path. Stop by the Jamail Pavilion on Tuesday, October 29 from 12-1PM for conversation, coffee, and kolaches!

Please save the dates for our future Public Interest Office Hours, Nov.19, Dec. 19 (virtual), Jan. 14, and Feb. 11.

Join the Justice Center for a mid-semester lunch as part of the EmPOWERed for Public Interest (EPI) initiative!

During “Mid-Semester Lunch: Community Conversations,” students will have the opportunity to engage with each other in an informal setting. Small group discussions will be guided by thought-provoking questions to encourage self-reflection and deeper connections. At the end of the lunch, students will have an opportunity to share their takeaways with the larger group.

Whether you want to share a personal story or listen, this event is a chance to connect with like-minded students! This event is part of the Justice Center initiative designed to support students whose lived experiences, or those of their loved ones, intersect with the legal systems they aspire to challenge in their careers. EPI gatherings seek to address the specific challenges and burnout that public interest law students may experience while advocating for vulnerable communities they personally identify with.

Please RSVP by Friday, October 25th, at 5:00 P.M.
