• There must be a commitment to participate with the student in analyzing and discussing the intellectual lessons to be drawn from the student's experience. A formal program of seminars or like activities is not required, but such programs are especially desirable.
  
  
• The attorneys who supervise the student must assume responsibility for continuous evaluation of the student's work, with particular attention to ways in wchich it can be improved.
  
  
• The host organization must commit itself to provide an experience that can be integrated directly with the faculty-supervised research project undertaken by the student as a required part of external studies.
  
  
• The host organization must also agree not to use student externs primarily for undesirable make-work tasks, such as cite-checking or perfunctory research projects.
