What is the Justice John Paul Stevens Public Interest Summer Fellowship program? In this video, Professor Nancy Marder explains its origins, Chicago-Kent’s involvement, and the work performed by the 2014 Fellows at Chicago-Kent.
The Stevens Fellowship honors the life, work, and commitment of Justice Stevens by awarding two $5,000 grants to students performing summer public interest work to help cover their living expenses.
Professor Marder, who is also the director of the Justice John Paul Stevens Jury Center, clerked for Justice Stevens from 1990-1992 and brought the program to the law school due to her experience with the former Associate Justice.
