Minorities in the Law Committee

Mission

The primary purpose of the Minorities in the Law Committee is to facilitate and guide the Minority Clerkship Program; a clerkship program for minority students at The Ohio State University School of Law and Capital University Law School.

A Message from the Minorities in the Law Committee Chair

“The Minorities in the Law Committee works to increase diversity in the local legal profession through the facilitation of the Minority Clerkship Program (MCP); a CBA program assisting local, minority law students in their quest for equal access to meaningful summer clerkships. All CBA members interested in increasing racial diversity in the Columbus legal profession are encouraged to join us. We meet monthly to make crucial decisions concerning the running of the MCP and we depend on committee members to help facilitate and actively shape the program, assuring that it will continue to evolve for the better. We know you'll find our meetings to be both rewarding and fun!”
