Remember
how much debt you had when you graduated? Well, it is no longer uncommon for
law students today to incur a six-figure debt upon leaving law school.
Nationally, public interest starting salaries average $31,000. It is
not surprising that few new graduates can afford to practice public
interest law. Many new graduates are forced to forego dreams of
utilizing their degrees to ensure equal justice and take a job based
primarily upon paying down student debt.
Oregon
Law’s Loan Repayment Assistance Program (LRAP) is perhaps the most
important method in which you can help address this problem. The LRAP
aims to provide financial support to recent graduates working in public
service who have significant debt-to-income ratios.
The
Class of 1983 has decided to focus our Class Gift effort to help
support the LRAP Program. Thus far, eighteen members of our class have raised a total of $5,290 to help this program. Our goal by the end of the year is $20,000. In recognition of reaching the $5000 mark, a
“leaf” will be engraved with "The Class of 1983" on the “Founder’s
Tribute” branch mounted in the law school’s main hallway. So if you contributed, a huge thank you! If you haven't yet given, we have until the end of the year to count this gift towards our total.
