In addition to curricular offerings and the projects of the Women and the Law Program, there are other opportunities for you to examine women's legal issues. If selected as a dean's fellow, you may work with faculty whose research interests and publications cover family law, women's legal history, or feminist jurisprudence. In addition, each year students are selected as dean's fellows for the Women and the Law Clinic and the Domestic Violence Clinic. It focuses specifically on the law's impact on women s lives and more generally on how gender bias in the law and in legal studies affects all of us. The journal contributes to the development of feminist legal scholarship and provides an opportunity for academic discussion overlooked by more traditional legal journals.
Law students have a unique perspective that deserves a voice in the academic community.
The Women's Law Association deals with legal, social, cultural, educational, and political issues concerning all persons, particularly women. Programs include speaker forums, film festivals, and the annual Founder's Day celebration.
