Law & Politics Program

A selective cohort for students interested in the intersection of careers in politics and the law. Selected students receive specialized advising, targeted programming, and access to speakers. Past speakers have included Sen. Dick Durbin, Congresswoman Sarah McBride, U.S. Attorney Leigha Simonton, U.S. District Court Judges Andrea Wood and Wes Hendrix, and former Labor Secretary Eugene Scalia. The program culminates in a capstone project such as a campaign speech, issue brief, mock press conference, or debate. Contact Ben Morris-Levenson at bmorrislevenson@uchicago.edu for more information.
