Strauss Troy Summer Intern Spotlight: Corinne Wieland
For the past 18 years, Strauss Troy has participated in the Summer Work Experience in Law (SWEL) program. SWEL is an eight-week program that operates from approximately mid-June through early August. It helps students make an informed decision regarding entering law school and the legal profession. SWEL sets the stage for each scholar’s self-discovery by exposing them to the inherent opportunities and challenges of practicing law through summer work experiences, coaching, and networking.
