In an effort to strengthen the ties between alumni and students, the School of Law recently launched the Oregon Law Network. The Network is an online community of alumni and other professionals whom students may contact for mentorship and legal career insight.  

Currently, there are 123 mentors registered in the database. Activities with students include:  

• Mentoring students  
• Participating in informational interviews  
• Conducting mock interviews  
• Critiquing a student resume or writing sample  
• Discussing issues of diversity and inclusiveness  
• Speaking to a newly admitted student about your experience at Oregon Law  
• Coaching mock trial or moot court  
• Participating in panels and presentations  

“We are excited about the response of our alumni and look forward to the Oregon Law Network continuing to grow in the years to come,” said Rebecca Ivanoff, Assistant Dean with the Center for Career Planning and Professional Development. “It provides a great opportunity for our students to get one-on-one professional advice from alumni working in the student’s area of interest.”
