Public Interest Law Colloquium

The Program also sponsors an annual Public Interest Law Colloquium bringing together advocates, scholars, and students from across the country for a day-long discussion. Colloquia have addressed many topics: the federal funding of legal services, encountering the criminal law, low-wage workers and workfare, the challenges of becoming and staying a public interest lawyer, the role of mass media in public interest advocacy, public interest lawyering, and public interest advocacy at the state and local level in an era of high anxiety. 

The Sixteenth Annual Liman Colloquium, Navigating Boundaries: Immigration and Criminal Law, will take place on April 4-5, 2013.   Please complete RSVP form and send to katherine.lawton@yale.edu
