Overview
The firm is pleased to participate in the Public Interest
Split Summer Program beginning in the Summer of 2005. The
firm requires that the first half of the summer be spent in
one of our offices, and the second half at a public interest
organization approved by the firm and in the same city as
the summer associate’s clerkship. The firm will sponsor
two Vinson & Elkins summer associates for the Public
Interest Split Summer Program. During the second half of the
summer while the student works at the public interest
organization, Vinson & Elkins will continue to pay the
student the Vinson & Elkins weekly summer associate
salary for a maximum of six weeks.
Vinson & Elkins is pleased to announce that Marie Lopez,
The University of Texas '06, who will be clerking in our
Austin office, has been selected as one of the firm's first
Public Interest Split Summer interns. Marie anticipates
working with Advocacy, Inc. and/or ARC, two Austin agencies
that provide legal services to the developmentally disabled.
If you have any questions or are interested in this
opportunity for the summer of 2006, please notify Jena
Ehlinger, Attorney Employment Specialist, at jehlinger@velaw.com.
