Alumni Spotlights

PILI Alumni Spotlight: Jody Adler, 1979 Intern
“Working for a firm or a corporation was not why I went to law school. I was one of those idealistic people who went to law school to change the world, or at least a tiny part of it.”

Alumni Spotlight: Max Stein, 2001 PILI Fellow
“I began going to the PILI luncheons with my grandfather, Hubert Will, a federal judge here in Chicago, and my mother, Nikki Will Stein who later became a member of the PILI Board, before I even went to law school.”

Alumni Spotlight: Jessica Schneider, 2009 PILI Intern
“I wanted to use that experience to make connections to the public interest law world in Chicago. My PILI internship did just that.” Most importantly, says Jessica, “I learned how to be a compassionate attorney working to address those issues that affect so many in our society.”
