Professor Alice Abreu from Temple Beasley School of Law has passed on the news that Temple has an opening for a clinic position. There is no subject matter limitation; the position will be part of the Sheller Center for Social Justice, and the Committee is interested in considering applications from individuals who propose to establish and run a tax clinic. More information about the Temple position can be found here.
Professor Ann Murphy from Gonzaga also has passed on information about an opening in its existing tax clinic. Gonzaga seeks applicants for a three-quarter-time Lecturer in its Federal Tax Clinic, with flexibility to serve in other areas as needed by the clinical program. More information about the Gonzaga position can be found here.
As the leaves start to fall here in the northeast it is hard to believe that we are now into the third decade of the federally funded low income taxpayer clinic program. For those wanting context Keith wrote a terrific article about the history of tax clinics; a recent blog post from the NTA touts the 20th anniversary of federal matching funding, puts the program in perspective and highlights some recent tax clinic successes.
Comment Policy: While we all have years of experience as practitioners and attorneys, and while Keith and Les have taught for many years, we think our work is better when we generate input from others. That is one of the reasons we solicit guest posts (and also because of the time it takes to write what we think are high quality posts). Involvement from others makes our site better. That is why we have kept our site open to comments.
If you want to make a public comment, you must identify yourself (using your first and last name) and register by including your email. If you do not, we will remove your comment. In a comment, if you disagree with or intend to criticize someone (such as the poster, another commenter, a party or counsel in a case), you must do so in a respectful manner. We reserve the right to delete comments. If your comment is obnoxious, mean-spirited or violates our sense of decency we will remove the comment. While you have the right to say what you want, you do not have the right to say what you want on our blog.
