UCLA Increases Clerkship Placements

42 students and alumni from the UCLA School of Law have been selected for 2006-2007 judicial clerkships, reflecting a continuing increase in UCLA's clerkship placements.

Placements include clerkships at the U.S. Court of Appeals, the California Court of Appeal, Los Angeles Superior Court, the United States Tax Court, the Delaware Court of Chancery, and in federal and state courts across the country.

Two students will serve as clerks overseas, one with South Africa's Supreme Court of Appeals and the other with Israel's Supreme Court.

Assistant Dean for Career Services Elizabeth Moeller said that UCLA Law's increasing success in securing clerkships arises from the School's support for strong candidates and to its close relationships with judges across the U.S. In addition, she is quoted as saying in a UCLA press release, “This ongoing success is a testament to the excellent caliber of our students."
