The DC Street Law Clinic and the DC Commission on Human Rights are happy to invite you to visit the 4rd Annual High School Student Human Rights Multimedia Exhibit. The event will be held in the Hart Auditorium and foyers, Wednesday, 11/19, from 3:30-5:30 PM. A short awards ceremony will be held around 5 PM. This year, over 250 students in teams or individually from 15 high schools have submitted 142 projects in various multimedia formats, including poems, stories, songs, videos, power points, posters, drawings, artworks and other innovative and expressive ways of illustrating what human rights mean to them.

Here is what a former Street Law clinic student had to say about some of them:
    I just wanted to say job well done to you and the entire Street Law Clinic for the Human Rights Projects this year.  I've scored projects every year since the program started, and they always seem to get even better year after year.  I wasn't able to travel to DC ... to score all of the projects this year, but I scored [some] of the electronic submissions remotely.  I was blown away.  The projects were nothing short of remarkable.  Many of them brought tears to my eyes.

Please take a moment to see a positive and creative dimension of teaching and learning the law in DC.

I also want to acknowledge the extraordinary work of our clinic law students, the Street Law clinical fellows, Efrain Marimon and Jessica Gallagher, our research assistant team, the DC Commission on Human Rights, Chief Judge David Simmons and the Office of Human Rights, the Washington Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights and Urban Affairs, our many volunteers and our team of evaluators led by Charisma Howell, a former Street Law fellow and Visiting Professor.
Thank you.
