Several law and medical students spent spring break in Immokalee, Florida, assisting migrant farm workers with legal and medical needs. The “Alternative Spring Break” was part of the law school’s newest clinic, the Medical-Legal Partnership, at the Public Interest Law Center. Pictured are the students, faculty members involved with the program and the pastor of the church that is in the background of the photo. The photo was taken before the group went on an airboat ride. C l o s i n g not e s… Hispanic Business magazine (2011) ranks Florida State the nation’s 3rd best law school for Hispanic students. The College of Law’s extensive clinical externship program has been referred to as a model for the nation.
