ABA blog focuses on law students helping military veterans

A special section of "Before the Bar" on the ABA law student blog gathers several stories about law students helping veterans whether through law school clinical programs or via pro bono volunteer work.  As I'm spending the year teaching in the law department at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, these stories hit especially close to home. Among the columns:

• Students, you could work with NOVA to aid veterans

• Earning your wings through veteran pro bono: Marquette Volunteer Legal Clinics

• The complete and complex picture of a veterans clinic client

• How – and why – a law school veterans clinic works

• Law student mentoring: Connect with ABA lawyers with a new premium program

And while we're at it, let me mention the good work being done by the Veterans Law Clinic at my home institution, Nova Southeastern College of Law.

Good causes one and all.
