Newsletter
The WBA formed a Newsletter Committee to help collect and edit a periodic WBA Newsletter. The goal of the newsletter is to provide an outlet to WBA members to publish legal articles, news of professional accomplishments, job postings, and other items of potential interest to other WBA members. There is no charge to submit items for publication in the newsletter. However, if you choose to publish in the WBA Newsletter, we ask that you consider contributing to the school in the name of the WBA. Please send submissions or any questions to the committee members at the above email addresses or to the WBA (WarriorBarAssociation@gmail.com).

Student Law Program
The WBA also formed a Student Law Committee that is headed by Kevin Kalczynski of Barris, Sott, Denn & Driker PLLC and Matt Koziarz of Carlson, Gaskey & Olds PC.
The committee organized a Student Law Program with the school, to help students that may be interested in legal careers. The goal of the program is to place interested students in summer or part-time legal positions at firms of WBA members. One way that you can give back to the school that helped you is to help current students explore and better understand their prospective future profession.
PLEASE CONTACT US IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN OFFERING A POSITION IN THE STUDENT LAW PROGRAM FOR NEXT SUMMER. THERE IS HIGH STUDENT DEMAND TO ENTER THE PROGRAM AND WE WOULD LIKE TO EXPAND THE PROGRAM FOR 2012.
In this initial year of the Student Law Program, the Student Law Committee placed numerous students in legal positions at law firms of Brother Rice Alumni. The WBA thanks the below law firms for participation in the program.
