Student Awards
The Justice Center promotes equal justice at Texas Law and seeks to build the law school’s public interest community. In spring 2024, the Justice Center will honor up to three graduating students for outstanding contributions to building and supporting Texas Law’s public interest community and the culture of service.
“Public interest” is broadly defined to include pro bono, nonprofit, government, legislative, and other not for profit sectors. The Justice Center is eager to recognize students who have provided extraordinary leadership, mentorship, or support to their fellow public-interest minded students or who have otherwise helped strengthen the law school’s commitment to service. The award recipients will each receive $500 as well as other recognitions.
Students graduating in December 2023, May 2024, or August 2024 are eligible for this award. The selection committee will consider student applications and peer nominations.
Application Information
Applications and nominations for the class of 2024 awards are closed. Application and nomination information for class of 2025 awards will be available in spring 2025.
