SUMMER YOUTH
INSTITUTE
SYI 2016 - Our Best Year Yet
Twenty-three students from eleven Milwaukee schools
participated in the 2016 Marquette Law School and
Eastern District of Wisconsin Bar Association Summer
Youth Institute (SYI). The SYI is designed to introduce
middle and high school students from the City of
Milwaukee to the legal system, expose them to careers
in law, and provide them with practical tools for their
educational goals.
During the seven day program, in addition to
having several guest speakers, the SYI 2016 class
visited the federal courthouse, the Milwaukee
County Courthouse, Harley-Davidson,
Robert W. Baird, and Foley & Lardner.
SYI students are invited to participate in the Honorable
Charles N. Clevert, Jr.. Mentoring Program. Students
met their mentors during the luncheon program on the
first day of the Institute and stayed in touch throughout
the program and beyond. Mentors are attorneys of the
Eastern District of Wisconsin Bar Association who are
willing to share experiences and advice, as well as help
students to explore the legal profession. “My favorite part of the day was
meeting my mentor!”
