The Nuts & Bolts of Judicial Clerkships

On Wednesday, March 3, at 5:15 p.m. in Room 329, join CAAS, Mason alumni, and current Mason students who are beginning 2010 clerkships to discuss The Nuts & Bolts of Judicial Clerkships.

Topics covered in the session will include:

• An overview of the types of judicial clerkships (federal, state, administrative)
• The benefits of judicial clerkships (many!)
• Application strategies (varied!)
• The Mason Law recommendation process (get started early!)
• OSCAR, the on-line application system for federal judges (fun!)
• CAAS clerkship database (to make life easier!)
• This year's application deadlines (early!)

IMPORTANT: Students interested in pursuing clerkships beginning in 2010 or later (2Ds/3Es) MUST attend this session or make an appointment with a CAAS counselor prior to April 30.

3D and 4E students interested in clerkships also are strongly encouraged to attend.
