Alternative Spring Break – Memphis, Tennessee: March 4 –

March 8

Memphis Law's Alternative Spring Break program, coordinated and run by the Public Action Law Society (PALS), seeks to help low-income individuals who need legal representation, while simultaneously providing law students the opportunity to gain experience in the legal field. Here is the link for the ASB promotional video made during the 2016 spring break: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUeGguUyn9k. Students from six law schools, including Toledo Law, participated last year. The 2018 spring break program runs from Sunday, March 4 to Thursday, March 8 and the program usually reserves Fridays of Spring break for students from out of town to be able to explore Memphis. Theme and Tracks Every year, Alternative Spring Break has a theme, which is the focus of the panels and which the Research and Writing track is centered around. This year, the theme is “Averting Crisis: Mental Health Interventions for Improving Our Justice System.” The program will be running eight different tracks this year: (1) Health Law, (2) Elder Law, (3) Family Law, (4) Criminal Law, (5) Veterans Law, (6) Juvenile Law, (7) Immigration Law, and (8) Research and Writing. Transportation, Housing, and Meals Students are responsible for their own travel to and from Memphis. The program

provides housing for participants, as well as transportation to and from the law school

within Memphis. In addition, PALS provides students with breakfast and lunch during the

working week, as well as hors d' oeuvres at the Sunday opening and Thursday closing

events. Please note that, if students do not want to stay at the provided housing, they

are more than welcome to provide for their own stay at any of the many hotels in the

Downtown, Midtown, or East Memphis areas

Interested students should contact OPD for an application as soon as possible,

but no later than 5:00 p.m. on Friday, January 11, 2018. Toledo Law will pay the

non-refundable deposit fee for up to four students (once they are accepted by

Memphis Law into the program) on a first-come, first-served basis

Wolverine Bar Association – 2018 Summer Clerkship & Judicial

Externship Programs

Page 11: Office of Professional Development Newsletter · and JRC-JTB AND are placed with an existing JIOP judge in a JIOP program location, may participate in both programs and receive funding

The Wolverine Bar Association strives to increase the number of minority attorneys employed in well-respected positions, such as partners, associates, in-house counsel, and judicial clerks in Southeastern Michigan. In line with this goal, the Summer Clerkship and Judicial Externship Programs were created. In partnership with several law firms and corporations, the Summer Clerkship Program places first-year, minority law students in clerkship positions that will provide opportunities to establish a network of contacts, develop practice skills, and acquire other benefits. Working in a challenging professional environment will allow the participants to gain the skills to launch a successful legal career. The Program provides participating employers an additional mechanism to accomplish individual diversity goals and express their commitment to, and underscore the importance of, diversity in the legal community. Some law firm placements are available for second and third year students as well, through the Judicial Externship Program. To expand judicial clerkship opportunities for minority students, the Judicial Externship

Program works in conjunction with the United States District Court of the Eastern District of

Michigan and is administered by the Honorable Victoria A. Roberts. The Program assists

participating judges in locating eligible law students for summer externships. To that end, the

Judicial Externship Program is a mechanism for externs to establish relationships with judges

and federal law clerks, further their analytical reasoning and legal writing skills, and become

comfortable with the decision making process that judges employ. In addition, externs are

exposed to the practical application of the law.

To be eligible to participate in SCP, applicants must: (i) be a minority law student; (ii) be in

good standing at his or her law school; (iii) demonstrate strong research, writing and

analytical abilities, (iv) have ties to SE Michigan and a desire to practice in metropolitan

Detroit after completing law school; (v) have completed a legal writing course before the

clerkship begins; (vi) by the time the clerkship starts, have completed no more than 30 credit

hours towards graduation; and (vii) expect to graduate no later than May 2020.

1L, 2L, and 3L minority law students are eligible to participate in the Judicial Externship

Program.

For more information on the 2018 Summer Programs, or for the application(s) please contact

Laura Dettinger at [email protected]

If you wish to be considered for the 2018 Summer Clerkship and/or Judicial

Externship Programs you must submit the materials by electronic mail no later

than noon (Eastern Standard Time) on Monday, January 22, 2018.

OSBA Environmental Law Award - Call for Papers

Have you written or are you planning to write a paper on an environmental law issue? Would you like the chance to have your writing published and win money? Submit a paper! Last year, the first and second place winners were Toledo Law students! (And other Toledo Law students have won or were runner up over the past several years.) For submission guidelines and more information click here. Deadline for submissions: 5:00 p.m. EST on January 31, 2018.

2018 Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association Ethics and Professionalism Essay Competition, sponsored by AmericanLawRadio.com and Malik Law The Competition is open to all full- and part-time students attending an ABA-accredited law school and enrolled in a JD or LLM program. The first-place winner will receive $1,500.00. The winning essay may be published in the CMBA's Bar Journal. The second-place winner will receive $1,000.00. The topic for the 2018 Competition is: The Ohio Bar Examination application requires an applicant to provide information regarding the applicant's criminal convictions and expungements. (See Gov. Bar. R.I, Sec. 11(D).) In college, an applicant was convicted of a crime. On appeal, the Supreme Court found that the statute under which the applicant was convicted violated the constitutional right to free speech (e.g., protesting an elected official) and overturned the conviction. Is the applicant required to disclose the overturned conviction on the Bar Examination application? Why or why not? Essays should be no more than 1600 words and will be electronically submitted in Word. The deadline for submissions is February 9, 2018. Winners will be announced no later than April 20, 2018. For more information, including rules and submission forms, please go to www.clemetrobar.org/essay and follow the link for the Competition. You or your students may also contact the Competition's director, Tom Horwitz, at 440-892-3331 or by email at [email protected].
