The Shook Hardy & Bacon Scholars Program is a part of the Law School's Academic Resources Program. Funding for this program comes from a grant from the law firm of Shook Hardy & Bacon. Scholars will lead a structured study group during the spring semester for 1L students ranked in the bottom of the class. The study group will be tied to the students' Constitutional Law class, but will also focus on learning and practicing effective study skills. We are looking for up to five students for the spring semester to lead study groups for students.

  • General Responsibilities - Scholars will be assigned a group of roughly five students. Scholars will not specifically be tutoring students but will instead be helping them find answers to their questions and modeling successful law student study skills.
  • Attend Constitutional Law - Scholars must attend one of the following classes: Professor Levy's class, which meets Wednesdays and Fridays from 9:15 a.m. - 11:15 a.m. OR Professor McAllister's class, which meets Mondays from 10:20 am - 11:15 am and Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays from 11:25 am - 12:20 pm. Scholars must be available to attend all four hours of class each week.
  • Lead Weekly Study Group - Scholars will organize and lead an hour-long weekly study group for group participants. Study groups will meet virtually.
  • Attend Training - Scholars will meet at the beginning of the spring semester and periodically throughout the semester with the Director of Academic Resources for training, guidance, and instruction.
  • Eligibility - Any KU Law student who is in good standing and will be enrolled as a third-year law student during the spring 2025 semester is eligible to apply. Scholars will be selected, in part, on students' demonstrated success in law school.
  • Students must be available to attend all four hours of one of the following classes: Professor Levy's Constitutional Law class or Professor McAllister's Constitutional Law class.
  • Scholars will be paid $15.50 an hour.
  • Note that law students are not allowed to work more than 20 hours per week.
  • Scholars generally work 6 to 10 hours each week.
