Applicants should specify in their cover letters the term or terms for which they are applying.

Applications for either position must include a current resume and law school transcript, a writing sample, and two letters of recommendation from law professors or legal employers. If possible, please submit a writing sample that has not been edited, or has been only minimally edited, by others.
