Public Works

Student Advisory Board

Now that the dog days of summer, August OGI, and clerkship applications are out of the way, consider taking on one more activity this year--the Public Service Center Student Advisory Board. 

The WHAT: We want a diverse group of about 10 students from the 1L, 2L and 3L classes to help advise us on our services and programs.  We're interested in getting advice on how to push out information quickly and effectively to you.  We know you're overloaded.

WHO: Both students committed to public service and those who aren't.  We want a mix of ideas and viewpoints.

TIME COMMITMENT: 1-2 meetings per semester, catered, and an occasional email if we need your thoughts on something.

WHEN and HOW: Apply by Monday, October 3rd by emailing me (Annie Kim) at ak5m@virginia.edu.  Tell us your class year and why you're interested in joining in 2-3 sentences.

Look forward to getting your emails!

JAG Corps Panel - Mon., September 19th at 11:30

We're thrilled to have JAG Corps attorneys from all five branches of the armed forces -- Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps and Navy -- speak at the Law School this Monday, September 19th at 11:30 a.m. in WB128.  And yes, PIZZA will be provided.  (Please RSVP by Friday, 9/16 at 5 p.m. so we can place orders.)

JAG stands for Judge Advocate General.  JAG attorneys do everything non-military lawyers do, plus work that specializes in military law.  They litigate in court and in military tribunals.  They advise, counsel and handle many kinds of transactions. Each branch handles summer internships and new attorney hiring differently -- and on  different deadlines -- so hearing from the JAG attorneys on Monday will be a great way for you to compare and contrast and get your deadlines straight.

If you're a 3L, check out our JAG deadline calendar on the PSC website (Employment Resources/Key Internship, Fellowship and Job Deadlines for 2Ls and 3Ls).

This panel will be useful for 1Ls interested in learning more about JAG generally, plus 2Ls and 3Ls who want to get details about internships, jobs, and deadlines.  Hope to see you there!
