We hope everyone had a relaxing summer. Thanks to everyone that signed up for KJF during orientation. For those of you that are not familiar with KJF, we are a school-sponsored organization that promotes the field of Public Interest Law. Our main activities during the school year revolve around our Annual Spring Auction held in March. During the year, we solicit donations from hotels, airlines, restaurants, and other esablishments.
Some professors even donate dinners or movies at their home.
We then auction these items off to raise money for scholarships for students that work in unpaid positions during the summer in areas of public interest law, including the state's attorney. Anyone can apply for these funds, but they generally go to students who help out with KJF activities. At our meeting on Wednesday, we will be discussing the auction and other activities that KJF is involved in. If you are interested in being a 1L Representative, we will be choosing two people for that position.
