Leadership Council on Legal Diversity's 1L Success in Law School Mentoring Program
The Leadership Council on Legal Diversity (LCLD) is excited to share that the 1L Success in Law School Mentoring Program is currently accepting mentees for the 2023 program year.
Are you a first-year law
student from an underrepresented background? Don't miss this opportunity to
receive personal mentorship from an attorney at a Leadership
Council on Legal Diversity (LCLD) Member organization!
The 1L Success in Law School Mentoring Program is
a comprehensive, no-fee initiative that helps talented students receive the
guidance they need to maximize their potential, both during and after law
school. Students are paired with a mentor at the top of the legal
profession who takes an active, personal interest in the student's
development and success.
Register now to join the
thousands of participants who have been matched with an attorney-perhaps even a
managing partner or general counsel-at an LCLD Member organization.
Registration has been
extended until January 13, 2023. Both in-person and virtual program
models are available. Availability is limited, so don't delay.

Introduction to Occupational Safety and Health Law
On February 8, from 12:30-1:30 pm eastern time, the Occupational Safety and Health Division of the Office of the Solicitor in the U.S. Department of Labor is holding a virtual presentation for current law students who may be interested in the office's work.
Speakers will provide an overview of the types work the office does, including appellate, enforcement, and regulatory work, and the kinds of careers available to attorneys interested in occupational safety and health. They will also discuss some specific examples of projects the office has worked on and hope to give current students an idea of what the day to day work of being an attorney for the federal government looks like.
The presentation will be on Teams, and participants do not need the app to participate, they can join from their browsers. There will be time at the end for questions.
