NY Lawyer Article on Law Students Volunteering

Posted by Alan Childress

Nice story today here in the New York Lawyer about 500-plus law students and others from all over the country (more than 28 law schools) who traveled to New Orleans and the Gulf Coast recently to help out as part of the Student Hurricane Network.  As Loyola’s Bill Quigley notes, “There are about five times as many legal problems as we had in August [2005] … and about half as many people providing legal services and pro bono services.”  One of our prior postings on this important grass roots contribution here.
