Cornell Law School has long recognized the important role lawyers play in promoting justice and serving communities through public service. We are dedicated to providing the support public service-minded students and alumni need to realize their professional goals. 

As Assistant Dean for Public Service, I work directly and exclusively with students and alumni who are pursuing jobs with public interest organizations and government agencies, as well as those seeking federal and state judicial clerkships.

These pages outline Cornell Law School’s excellent public service-oriented curricular offerings, financial resources and career planning services. I hope you find these pages useful. I look forward to working with you.
