Labor Project

This is a group with goals inside and outside of the law school. We want to develop greater interest among students and faculty in the study of labor law and worker's rights at the UW Law School. This includes sharing experiences and ideas for a successful job search in the field. We discuss what it means to defend the rights of workers and how to combine organizing and lawyering skills. Our goal in the greater Madison community is to partner with worker's rights groups and unions where there is a need. Many opportunities exist for law students to use their knowledge in the field and gain relevant experiences not found in the law building.
