LexisNexis ASPIRE


LexisNexis has launched a new program to help students that are experiencing delays in starting their careers due to the current economic conditions. The ASPIRE (Associates Serving Public Interest Research) program will allow qualified graduates to access LexisNexis in order to pursue public interest work.

This complimentary service is available to all 2009 graduates pursuing verifiable public service (non-profit or charitable) work. This includes:
(1) Deferred fall associates pursuing public interest work during their deferral periods;
(2) 2009 graduates who elect to pursue public interest work while searching for law firm employment, and
(3) Those 2009 graduates who pursue public interest work as a continuing profession.

LexisNexis will provide this service throughout these graduate's public interest employment periods, up until September 2010 maximum.

Please go to http://www.lexisnexis.com/aspire to acquire access. Once eligibility is confirmed, the graduates will be allowed to continue using their law school student IDs to access LexisNexis.
