Calling All Law Students
FIRE is seeking legal interns for the coming summer. FIRE has several attorneys on staff and has an ongoing need for quality legal research and writing. Recent projects included an amicus brief to the Supreme Court and a report analyzing First Amendment violations in a major state university system. FIRE is planning to coordinate more lawsuits in the near future as part of our Speech Codes Litigation Project (state schools, we’re watching you!) and legal interns will assist in this process as well.
If you are interested in a legal internship at FIRE, please fax, mail, or e-mail a cover letter, résumé, and two written recommendations to:
