Alumni Relations
Cleveland State Law Review is committed to connecting and facilitating interaction between our alumni and current members. Our Alumni—who include some of the top judges, practitioners, and business professionals in the Midwest—are an invaluable source of information for current members regarding the practice of law and career opportunities. If you are an alum, we would love to hear from you!
As a CSLR alum, there are several ways to get more involved. Opportunities include: (1) speaking to our current members at one of our standing meetings, (2) writing a piece for our Alumni Newsletter, (3) becoming a mentor for a current member, (4) providing career opportunities, and (5) supporting CSLR financially. Donate Here. To become more involved with any of these, please email us at alumni@clevstlrev.org.
