AALS Internships
January 17th, 2016 / By Deborah J. Merritt
The Association of American Law Schools wants to employ several law students, who will “work on research and writing projects related to [the Association’s] mission of improving legal education.” In particular, students will have the opportunity to work on projects related to “the value of a U.S. legal education” and “financial aid for law students.” There’s just one catch: These are unpaid internships.
There’s something deeply sad about unpaid student interns working to showcase the value of their education. Even law schools pay their research assistants. H/t to Outside the Law School Scam.
