NSBA Sections of the Law Networking Event
Thursday, March 10 from 4:00-5:30pm in the Student Lounge
Take part in our third-annual high-energy networking event that we put on in conjunction with the Nebraska State Bar Association. Representatives from most, if not all, of the 30 sections of the NSBA will be seated at tables while students rotate every four minutes. Dust off your elevator speech and get ready to ask questions! Make connections that can last a lifetime or just learn a bit more about the kinds of law that are being practiced in the community. The speed-networking will be followed by a reception complete with beverages and appetizers. Take advantage of this time to meet other attorneys or follow up with your favorites!
We need hard numbers to plan this event so rsvp today if you can commit to being there. This event is one of the highlights of the CDO programming line-up for many students.

2016 Loyola Patent Law Interview Program – Registration closed this Thursday, March 10
ATTN: All Law Students Returning for Fall Semester 2016
Loyola University Chicago School of law is hosting the 2016 Patent Law Interview Program on Thursday and Friday, August 4-5 in Chicago, Illinois. This is a nationwide interview program that targets patent law employers, rising 2L and 3L students, and students in Intellectual Property LLM programs.
Last year roughly 140 employers, 190 law schools, and 1,300 law students from across the country participated in the program. The program is entirely pre-selected, which means that students submit resumes and transcripts to bid on interviews with the employers they are interested in, and employers then review the materials of the students who bid on them and select the students they wish to interview at the program. Last year, approximately half of the participating students were selected for interviews.
Students with undergraduate or graduate degrees in engineering or a technical science should consider registering for the program. You do not need to be patent bar eligible to register, although the vast majority of employers participating in the program are seeking patent bar eligible students.
For more information on the program, please refer to the Loyola Patent Program website at: http://www.luc.edu/law/career/patent_students.html.
