Legislative Policy & Drafting Clinics

The Legislative Policy & Drafting Clinics offer four areas of focus:

• General Legislation
• Intellectual Property (counts towards concentration)
• Health and Environment Legislation (counts towards concentration)
• African Issues

In the Policy & Drafting Clinics, you'll work with state senators and representatives, mayors, city councils, administrative agencies and public interest groups to create legislative solutions to problems. Weekly seminars and small critique groups help you hone your legislative drafting skills. Faculty advisors and student editors also provide individualized guidance in drafting bills and supporting memoranda.
