"The Fellows I've met are inspirational and aspirational. They’re incredible people in their various crafts, and I’m very proud to belong and be associated with such an amazing group."
-
The Fellows Program has been tremendous! Before I became a Fellow, I was able to contribute to their presentations and seminars—I was struck by their community—each of them are so accomplished in their own right.
-
The Fellows program has opened my eyes to issues I hadn’t been exposed to before [and] does a great job of fostering a sense of being both a lawyer and a citizen.
