As artificial intelligence permeates more of our legal and political systems, how can we keep the needs of real people at the forefront?

That's one of the questions behind Edward J. Womac, Jr. Distinguished Professor of Law Landyn Rookard's research. His latest scholarship identifies and proposes safeguards against the growing threats posed by artificial intelligence and algorithmic governance.

“The government's use of AI carries potentially significant consequences for civil rights and social justice, not to mention fascinating and complicated doctrinal issues," Prof. Rookard said.

As they return to campus, many students spent their summers using their legal skills to serve the community through paid internships.

For more than 30 years, the College of Law has facilitated representation of low-income people through the Gillis Long Poverty Law Center at Loyola's College of Law. Through paid summer internship programs in both civil and criminal law, Gillis Long matches students with legal services offices in Louisiana and throughout the United States.

Congratulations to the College of Law's newest student practitioners! ⚖️

Last week, 76 students were sworn in to practice in the Stuart H. Smith Law Clinic. Under faculty supervision, these students will represent real clients in one of the clinic's nine sections: child welfare & domestic violence, civil litigation, criminal appeals, disability justice, family law, immigration, youth defense, and two sections of criminal defense.

Students were sworn in by the Hon. Robin Pittman, JD '96, and spent the afternoon meeting with their sections to discuss the year ahead.

The law clinic is one of the most important examples of the College of Law's commitment to academics, justice, and service.
