Attorneys General Class Previews at UT

The University of Tennessee College of Law will preview a pilot program on Tuesday that will focus on states’ attorneys general, combining classroom instruction with a summer externship experience. Bob Cooper and Jim Hood, attorneys general in Tennessee and Mississippi, respectively, will speak at the event, which is at noon in room 237 at the College of Law. The pilot course will cover a range of topics that fall under the scope of authority for attorneys general found under most state statutes. Students will learn the role of the attorney general and how a state’s attorney general represents the state itself and the interests of its citizen. Learn more
