The Chicago Police Department was on-campus last week to talk to students about joining the force and receiving tuition assistance towards law school. If interested in this opportunity, see the Resource Manager for detailed information regarding their program, application dates, and exam dates. The Advice Desk program has immediate openings for law students to work with live clients in an exciting environment. The Advice Desk is located at the Daley Center in Chicago. In this program, senior law students interview, counsel, and advise clients, and draft pleadings and motions for indigent defedants being sued in Cook County.
Students work under the supervision of an experienced liscensed attorney.
Students must be eligible for a 711 License, which requires that a student has completed 52 or more credit hours in law school. Prior experience as an Advice Desk class student is preferred but not required. We will provide all necessary training. The Midwest Public Interest Law Career Conference will be held at Northwestern University on February 17, 2001.
