PILF 2016-17 Events
The annual UCI Public Interest Law Fund (PILF) events raise money to enable current and future UCI Law students to commit to summer positions at organizations focused on providing services for traditionally under-represented communities. Proceeds from this event will provide stipends to students who accept non-paying, full-time public interest jobs this summer.
