Congrats to Our New SDCBA Diversity Fellows!

March 9, 2020

Congratulations to 1Ls Andrew Steiger, Ryan Wullschleger, and Christian Chavez, who have been selected as San Diego County Bar Association (SDCBA) Diversity Fellows. The fellowship program, sponsored by SDCBA and the Association of Corporate Counsel, seeks to provide diverse 1L students the opportunity to “learn and develop skills that are necessary…in…law firm and corporate legal department environments.” Applicants must submit, among other things, an application, writing sample, resume, personal statement, two letters of recommendation, and also interview in person for a fellowship. Once chosen, each fellow is matched with an employer, and will spend 8 to 10 weeks working for that employer during the summer. Last week, Andrew, Ryan, and Christian attended a meet and greet event with prospective employers. They are pictured in the photo with Diversity Fellowship Program Director Bhashini Weerasinghe.
