Save the Date- 7th Government and Public Interest Fair (followed by the Justice Jam)
Thursday, October 4th
Government and Public Interest Fair- North Hallway
4:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Join representatives from government, academic, and public interest organizations to learn more about opportunities in externships, paid clerkships and volunteer positions. Employers will be located at tables in the North Hallway for you to introduce yourself and learn more about them.

7th Annual Justice Jam- Student Lounge
5:00 pm – 6:30 pm

Please join us immediately following the fair for the 6th Annual Justice Jam, a fun and casual event co-hosted with the Equal Justice Society. Share a local brew with leaders from the Nebraska Public Interest community while listening to these passionate attorneys share why they fight for justice. If you came to law school to make a difference, this event is for you!

The "Justice Jam" idea was inspired by the "Conservation Jam" at the Great Plains Art Museum and is similar to the law college STIR Talks. Several local attorneys will talk about what justice means to them. But there's a catch...they only have four minutes! It’s been described as a poetry slam about justice, a public interest presentation blitz, and a whole lot of fun!

You don't have to be an EJS member, and you don't even have to know what "public interest law" means - all students, faculty and staff are welcome to attend. But you do have to RSVP in the BYC App by Tuesday, October 3 at 12 p.m.
