Successful candidates will be detail-oriented and interested in expanding their knowledge about U.S. press freedom and media law issues. A strong background or interest in journalism is preferred.
Deadline: Applications should be submitted by January 1 for the summer term.
To apply: Submit a cover letter, resume, a writing sample (preferably a legal writing sample) and a copy of your most recent law school transcript (transcripts are only required for 2L applicants).
