Fall 2023: Forty Years of Trial Advocacy
Founded forty years ago, the Trial Advocacy Program at Chicago-Kent College of Law teaches students how to be the best possible advocates for their future clients. The program’s alumni don’t just know how to argue a case from beginning to end, but they know how to win. They are victorious in firms big and small, public and private, across the country. But no matter how far they go, they’re always a part of Chicago-Kent’s trial advocacy family.
Spring 2023: Public Interest Law
Chicago-Kent College of Law has always prided itself for having a commitment to public interest. Our graduates enter the nonprofit and government sectors ready to make change and fight for the marginalized. As our public interest programs strengthen, so do our alumni and the communities that they work in. This is the work that you’ll find example of in this issue of Chicago-Kent Magazine.
Fall 2022: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Law
Diversity, equity, and inclusion law is more than just a specialty. In fact, DEI work branches into numerous legal fields, from labor and employment law to government work to public interest law, to name just a few. There is not a specific J.D. certificate for it, and yet—as you will see in the alumni profiles in this fall's Chicago-Kent Magazine—legal issues relating to DEI are growing both more frequent and more prevalent. And often, these issues garner national attention.
