Inn of Court Student Membership
Current 2Ls are invited to apply for 2019-2020 membership in
the William
L. Dwyer Inn of Court. One of the Inn of Court’s functions is to serve as
an educational and mentoring organization to law students who are dedicated to
the pursuit of high-quality, ethical lawyering.
ABOUT THE INN
The general Inn membership is made up of judges, professors,
law firm partners, prosecutors, defenders, and other lawyers with varying
levels of practice experience. The Inn meets on the Seattle U campus the second
Tuesday night of each of the nine months of the school year for dinner,
networking, and a continuing legal education (CLE) presentation. Students are
each assigned to one of seven sub-groups, called pupilages, where they work
with judges and lawyers in those groups to develop and help lead a CLE (each
pupilage presents one CLE for the year).
SELECTION CRITERIA
This is a competitive process. There are seven spots
available for Seattle University law students who will be 3Ls during the
2019-2020 academic year. Selection criteria include a demonstrated interest in
litigation and dispute resolution, participation in activities supporting that
interest, and a thoughtful and compelling cover letter.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Applications for membership in the William L. Dwyer Inn of
Court are due Thursday, April 18 by 5 pm. A resume and letter of interest
detailing why you would like to join the Inn can be emailed to Laura Spoor or delivered in person to
the Dean’s Offices on the law school’s 2nd floor. Address letters of interest
to Deborah Ahrens, William C. Oltman Professor of Teaching Excellence &
Associate Professor of Law, and Erin Fullner, Senior Associate Director of the
Center for Professional Development.
MEMBERSHIP DUES
Student dues for 2019-2020 will be covered by the Office of the Dean.
