Research by Student Interns

The Center engages students in a variety of ways: supporting student-run projects (like the Community Empowerment Fund and Poverty Awareness Week); hiring students as research assistants or interns/externs during the school year and over the summer; and overseeing independent study or pro bono projects.

In the past, students have examined the Earned Income Tax Credit, educational equity and high poverty schools, expanding the right to a lawyer in civil cases, unemployment insurance, and the effects of the Citizens United decision, among other issues.
