The Princeton University Program in Law and Public Affairs (LAPA) selected five undergraduates as 2019 Arthur Liman Fellows in Public Interest Law.  The fellowship will enable them to spend eight to ten weeks during the upcoming summer in an internship serving the needs of people and causes that might otherwise go unrepresented.  The summer stipends are made possible by a generous donation from the Liman Foundation at the direction of Princeton alumna Emily Liman '85.

Liman Fellows are selected through a competitive application based upon their demonstrated commitment to public service through past and current activities.  The students will begin their fellowship experience by participating in the Annual Liman Public Interest Law Colloquium at Yale Law School on March 28-29, 2019.  There they will meet public interest advocates, legal scholars, government officials and the Liman Fellows from other schools participating in the program.

The 2019 Liman Fellows, comprising the 14th annual class at Princeton University are:

Amanda Eisenhour '21, African American Studies

Kat Powell '20, African American Studies

Peter Schmidt '20 Spanish and Portuguese

Audrey Spensley '20 History

Leila Ullmann '21 Politics or History
