Employment

Floyd Skinner Bar Association Summer Clerkship Program
Event Contact: Mark Gebhart, mgebhart@umich.edu, 734.615.0019

The Grand Rapids (Michigan) Bar Association and the Floyd Skinner Bar Association are pleased to announce their 2007 Minority Clerkship Program (the “Program”) for first-year minority law students.

We anticipate having approximately 5 ­ 7 paid openings for this summer. As the Program’s ultimate goal is to provide qualified minority law students the introduction, development, and legal experience necessary for succeeding in the Grand Rapids legal community, the Program’s participants are given “real legal” assignments, opportunities to meet with clients and access to the professional experience of full-time associates and partners practicing in Grand Rapids and West Michigan generally. Successful students have been offered second-year summer clerkships and, more importantly, full-time employment after completing successful second-year clerkships.

The Program is open to first-year minority law students at Michigan law schools with an interest in exploring and residing in West Michigan over the summer and first-year minority law students attending out-of-state law schools who are permanent residents of West Michigan.

Applicants must have taken legal research and writing prior to participation in the Program since much of the student’s work product will involve written assignments. Deference will be given to those students who have a more permanent connection to West Michigan. As with most summer associate positions, successful participants will be expected to fully participate in the professional activities of the law firm, corporation or public interest agency, and social outings, as well as balancing the demands of producing quality attorney work.

Interviews will be held at the Michigan State University College of Law, 301 Law College Building, East Lansing, Michigan 48824-1300, on Saturday, February 17, 2007, beginning at 9:00 a.m. and concluding around 2:00 p.m. depending on the number of students interviewing. Students who submit their resumes, transcripts and writing sample should plan on participating in the interviews on a first-come first-interviewed basis. In the event of an increased number of applicants, interviews may be scheduled at the discretion of Program administrators. The interviews will last approximately 20-30 minutes.

Applications are available in the Office of Student Affairs. Completed applications, resumes, first semester transcripts, and writing samples must be received by Friday, February 9, 2007, at the address below:
