Diversity Clerkship Program – State Bar of Wisconsin

The State Bar's first-year law student Diversity Clerkship Program is a limited-term summer employment opportunity that affords first-year law students the opportunity to build legal practice skills and knowledge. It is an employer-student assignment program. Students are assigned to private law firms, corporate legal departments and governmental agencies. Student clerks gain valuable legal experience; employers obtain valuable legal support. The program offers employers and students a unique opportunity to share experiences and to promote diversity in the legal profession.
