WILLIAM L.
DWYER INN OF COURT STUDENT MEMBERSHIP
APPLICATIONS Current
2Ls are invited to apply for 2024-25 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. APPLICATION
INSTRUCTIONS Applications
for membership in the William L. Dwyer Inn of Court are due Friday, March 8 at 12 pm. A resume and letter of interest detailing why you
would like to join the Inn should be addressed and emailed to Deans Deborah
Ahrens and Erin Fullner. ABOUT
THE INN Inn
membership is made up of judges, professors, law firm partners, defenders,
prosecutors, 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 expected to attend every Tuesday evening meeting and are each assigned
to one of seven sub-groups, called pupilages. Students work with the judges
and lawyers in their pupilages to develop and help lead CLEs (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 2024-25 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. MEMBERSHIP
DUES Student dues for 2024-25 will be
covered by the Office of the Dean. |
