17TH ANNUAL NATIONAL LAW STUDENTS WORKERS’ RIGHTS CONFERENCE [OCTOBER 16-17, 2015]

Each school selects its own students. The selection method varies from school to school. Typically, schools consider such factors as the student’s demonstrated interest in either workers’ rights issues or public interest law; whether the student has previously attended the conference; whether it’s the student’s last chance to attend (e.g., in the case of a 3L vs. a 1L student); etc. Some schools choose by lottery.

*If you are interested in applying to attend, please contact the Ovadia CP&P Office @ lawcareer@fiu.edu.
