Goodwin Public Interest Fellowships for Law Students of Color

Investing in Leaders of Tomorrow.

It’s not enough to say we want a diverse legal community.  As a national leading member of the profession, we have to invest in a diverse legal community.  So we put our money where it counts: in the hands of high-achieving law students of color.

This year, we have revised our Goodwin Minority Law Student Public Interest Fellowship Program to offer $7,500 awards to students of color who work in public interest positions the summer after their first year of law school.  Selected fellows are guaranteed a “straight-to-callback” interview with the Goodwin Procter office of their choice in the fall interviewing season during their second year of law school.  Fellows will also be invited to participate in some of our summer associate program events during their summer at the public interest organization.

This program allows us to connect with a wide array of talented students early in their legal careers who are committed to giving back to their communities.

Information regarding how to apply for a 2010 Goodwin Minority Law Student Public Interest Fellowship will be provided in December 2009.  If you have questions in the interim about the Fellowship Program, please contact our Boston Office Recruiting Manager Ashley Nelson at anelson@goodwinprocter.com.
