Clerkship Discussion: Fostering Transparency & Accountability with The Legal Accountability Project

Oct. 1, 2024
12:10PM - 1:00PM
SLB Room 127
Open to the YLS Community Only

Join us for a candid conversation on judicial accountability and clerking with Aliza Shatzman, President and Founder of The Legal Accountability Project (LAP). LAP is a nonprofit aimed at ensuring that judicial law clerks have positive clerkship experiences, while extending support and resources to those who do not. Aliza will explain LAP’s work to transform the clerkship system for the next generation of attorneys and ensure transparency, diversity and equity, and accountability in both clerkships and the judiciary. Aliza will also discuss LAP’s Centralized Clerkships Database, populated with 800+ surveys submitted by former judicial clerks from law schools across the country. This database represents the largest independent repository of clerkship information in the nation, and students from any law school can purchase subscriptions.

We hope that you will join us for lunch and an exciting discussion to ensure that you can make informed decisions in your clerkship application process.
