More... Symposium Looks at Pressing Issue in International Finance The move toward global convergence in accounting standards--one of the most discussed topics in finance--is the focus of a landmark print symposium published in this month's Northwestern Law Journal of International Law and Business. More... And the Winners Are... Congratulations to the faculty recipients of the 2004-05 student-voted teaching awards. These awards will be presented to Jim Speta, Martin Redish, Kim Yuracko, and Howard Nagelberg at the graduation ceremony on Sunday, May 15. More... Apply for a Judicial Clerkship Under the Federal Law Clerk Hiring Plan for 2005, law school graduates may apply for federal clerkships earlier than law students, providing graduates with a significant advantage in hiring this year. Working for a judge can provide valuable insight into the legal system, the nature of the judicial process, and the business of being a lawyer. Consider taking a year or two off from your practice to take advantage of the significant clerkship opportunities available to law school graduates. For more information, visit the Career Strategy Center's Web site or contact Allison Heverin, Associate Director for Career Strategy at (312) 503-1282 or by e-mail. Are You in a Position to Hire or Refer an Opportunity? We still have students seeking summer and permanent employment. If you are in a position to hire a student or refer an opportunity, please contact Bill Chamberlain, Assistant Dean for Career Strategy. A file of third-year students' resumes can be forwarded on request. Additional information on our student population and formal recruitment programs is available from the Career Strategy Center. Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Get Involved in the Alumni Coaching Program Strong interviewing and networking skills are essential job search tools. Northwestern Law students need your help to hone these invaluable skills. Volunteer as an alumni coach to conduct mock interviews with current law students over the summer and fall.
