M & DCP Thanks You
The Minority & Diversity Clerkship Program ( M & DCP ) is off to a very successful 37th year . Through the program , we placed 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 four judicial clerkships and one clerkship with Georgia Appleseed . As a result , through the M & DCP , we gave 21 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 37th year a continued success :
Alston & Bird LLP Atrium Health Burr & Forman LLP Fisher & Phillips Goodman McGuffey LLP Hawkins Parnell & Young LLP Meunier Carlin & Curfman LLC Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough Parker Hudson Rainer & Dobbs LLP Seyfarth Shaw Taylor English Duma LLP The Home Depot UPS Weinberg Wheeler Hudgins Gunn & Dial LLC
