Minority & Diversity Clerkship : Thank You !
The Minority & Diversity Clerkship Program ( M & DCP ) is off to a very successful thirty-sixth ( 36th ) year . Due to the ongoing pandemic , Interview Night was held virtually for the first time . Through the program , we were able to place sixteen ( 16 ) first year law students in clerkships with firms and corporate legal departments . In addition , thanks to generous grants from the Atlanta Bar Foundation and Lawyer Referral & Information Service , we were able to fund three judicial clerkships . As a result , through the M & DCP , we were able to give nineteen ( 19 ) minority 1L students a summer legal opportunity they may not have otherwise been afforded .
The M & DCP thanks the following firms and legal departments for participating and making our thirty-sixth ( 36th ) year a continued success :
