波士顿大学法律公共服务项目
公共服务贯穿于波士顿大学法学院的学习经历，在这里，你可以通过无数种方式从事公共服务。 这些包括:
公益项目
You can participate in BU Law’s 公益性服务 program by volunteering to provide law-related service to persons of limited means or to organizations that serve them or other underrepresented groups. JD students who complete the 公益性服务 pledge by performing at least 50 hours of 公益性服务 work during law school are recognized with a special designation on their transcripts; 法学硕士学生可以通过完成18个小时来满足承诺。
公益旅行
Each year, BU Law sponsors Spring Break 公益性服务 Service Trips across the US, placing groups of students at non-profit legal organizations, where they assist attorneys representing low-income clients with a variety of legal issues, ranging from foreclosure prevention to deportation issues.
公益法律学会
你可以加入公共利益法律协会（公益法律学会，简称PILS），这是法学院历史最悠久、规模最大、最活跃的学生组织之一。 PILS’s mission is to foster students’ commitment to non-profit, government, and 公益性服务 work and to promote community service. 组织网络活动，讨论和小组讨论公共利益的机会，并协调社区服务活动。
公益务虚会
The Public Interest Retreat is an annual event planned by BU Law students with the support of faculty and staff. The retreat is an opportunity for students interested in public interest law to connect with one another while engaging with leaders in the field and learning about emerging legal issues and approaches to public interest lawyering. 计划包括社区建设练习，从直接代表到运动律师等主题的讲习班，以及澳门威尼斯人注册如何为公共利益规划职业的讨论。
Public Interest Scholars
The 波士顿大学法学院 公益奖学金 program provides scholarship awards from $40,000 to full-tuition for all three years to a number of JD students who have demonstrated their desire to pursue a career in public interest law. 公益学者 are an important part of the public interest community here at BU Law and our 校友 go on to make an impact in a variety of legal fields.
公共服务奖学金
Since 2010, the 法学院 has awarded year-long BU Law 公共服务奖学金 to select members of the graduating class of JD students to support their work at under-resourced public interest and government organizations across the US and abroad, including Mid-Minnesota Legal Aid Immigration Project, New York State Attorney General’s Office, Greater Boston Legal Services, Florida Public Defenders Office, Asylum Ecuador, and California Rural Legal Services.
诊所
You can gain real-world legal experience in public service settings in a number of BU Law’s 诊所. Opportunities include prosecuting or defending criminal cases in Boston or neighboring Quincy, representing clients of Boston Legal Services in civil matters, assisting victims of human trafficking, advocating for immigrants’ rights, or working for the state or federal government.
