Anthony Bland, Elizabeth Kwon, and Elliott Millner from the Class of 2023 were selected for a highly competitive North Carolina Bar Association initiative aimed at making the legal profession more reflective of the state’s many diverse communities.
Three Elon Law students who have excelled in their first year of study will take part this summer in an internship program established by the North Carolina Bar Exam to promote and support diversity and inclusion in the legal profession.
Anthony Bland L’23, Elizabeth Kwon L’23, and Elliott Millner L’23 accepted invitations to work for firms and corporations that participate in the NCBA’s Minorities in the Profession 1L Summer Associate Program, which is coordinated through its Minorities in the Profession Committee.
It is the sixth year in a row that at least three Elon Law students have secured such placements. The summer associate program “provides corporate legal departments and major law firms in North Carolina with a recruiting vehicle through which to interview and offer summer internship positions to 1L minority law students from each of North Carolina’s law schools.”
