Cleveland, OH: U.S. District Judge Dan Polster is seeking an Akron Law student to intern with his court this semester.

Interested 2nd and 3rd year students who are in the top 25% of their class must contact Professor Gary Spring in the Legal Clinic by 4 p.m. tomorrow, Wednesday, August 25. Externship credit may be available or students can apply for public interest funds through the public interest program here at the Law School. Call Professor Spring today! Do not contact the Judge directly.
