The Korean American Coalition of Chicago (KACC) is a sub-chapter of a national nonprofit organization serving young professionals through networking, service and leadership opportunities. The KACC hosts various Speaker Series where they invite prominent leaders in the Chicago Asian community to speak on topics pertinent to the Asian community. This year the spotlight will be honoring the new Dean of the University of Illinois in Chicago, Dr. Mi Ja Kim. There will be a free reception beforehand where attendees can mingle and network, and then a Q&A/Speech session afterward.
Judge Edmond Chang of the Northern District of Illinois is now accepting clerkship applications for September 2012 and January 2013 from attorneys who have graduated from law school and current third-year students (no second-year student applicants at this time). Judge Chang hires 3 law clerks for 1-year terms. Two clerks start in September of each year, and the other starts in January. Because Judge Chang does not have an administrative assistant, law clerks will be expected to share in handling some administrative responsibilities.
Applications should be submitted through the OSCAR online system.
