LEGAL AID MISSION: As this issue of Dateline went to press, 11 law students were in New Orleans, helping to rebuild a neighborhood, advocate for exploited laborers and re-establish a legal aid organization. The students, members of the Humanitarian Aid Legal Organization, a new student group at the law school, journeyed to New Oreleans for a week as part of a national law student movement to help rebuild and serve legal and social justice organizations in the areas devastated by hurricanes Katrina and Rita. The students are scheduled to participate in a noon forum April 5 in the Wilkins Moot Court Room of King Hall, to talk about their journey.
