Skadden Postgraduate Public Interest Fellowships

Presenter: Susan Butler Plum Director, Skadden Fellowship Foundation

• Want to learn more about a two-year Skadden Fellowship?
• Interested in joining what’s been described as a legal Peace Corps?
• Have a desire to create your own project at a public interest organization?

The Skadden Fellowship Foundation was established in 1988, in recognition of the dire need for greater funding for graduating law students who wish to devote their professional lives to providing legal services to the poor, the elderly, the homeless and the disabled, as well as those deprived of their civil or human rights. The aim of the foundation is to give Fellows the freedom to pursue public interest work; thus, the Fellows create their own projects at public interest organizations with at least two lawyers on staff before they apply.

THIS INFORMATION SESSION WILL BE HELD AT NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF LAW THURSDAY, JULY 15TH @ NOON ROOM 46, DOCKSER HALL 65 FORSYTH STREET, BOSTON
