The Michigan Daily-Friday, November 20, 1981-Page 3 Students debate future of law clinics in forum (Continued from Page 1) how to think like lawyers but not how to act like them," he said. Many students said it is fascinating to see the principles they learned in class applied in the courtroom. "It was interesting because it was real-real people with real backgroun- ds," said Elise Bean, a third year law student. Students replied that the clinic has a negative reputation among faculty, which often deters students from taking the courses. ONE REASON for the clinics' negative reputation, explained law student Erica Munzel, is that attorneys who practice courtroom litigation, which the clinic courses teach, don't have as high a status as attorneys who work for large corporations and don't use courtroom litigation skills as often. Law student David Schreier said the clinic program is essential to counter the emphasis that is often placed on lawyers who help rich corporations in- stead of needy people. We owe it to the embryonic student to give him the impression and oppor- tunity and implant the idea and notion of giving our services to those who need it and can't afford it," Schreier said. HE ADDED that for some, the clinic program is the only opportunity to do "pro bono" work (work for the good of the people.) Jonathan Rose, director of Student Legal Services, also spoke in favor of the program. Of the beginning lawyers who come to work for his office, those who have had clinic courses in law school "were excellent lawyers when they walked in the door," he said. Students said simulation courses do not offer the same kind of experience clinic courses can. A student who just takes a simulation class "has no appreciation of the pressure it puts on you having someone blindly trust you" the way a client has to trust their lawyer, said Vidmar, a third year student. He added that while the pressures of academic law classes and grades may reduce the confidence of many struggling students, "clinic is a way for a person in that position to gain a lit- tle." > " w,_ Thinsulaite Parks Doily Photo by PAUL ENGSTROM ' STUDENT LEGAL SERVICES Director Jonathan Rose speaks to law students yesterday during a discussion on the clinical law program.

E-Systems continues the tradition of the world's great problem solvers. Maxwell's electro- magnetic field theory led to huge practical scientific advances. His light theory led to his own development of one of the first color photos and the kinetic theory of gasses. Scientists and en- gineers at E-Systems are carrying on in the tradition of Maxwell's genius. Today, they are solving some of the world's toughest problems in electronically steered phased array antennas, electromagnetic scattering and solar ray concentration, using his findings as tools. E-Systems is main- taining a reputation for designing and building communications, data, antenna, intelligence and reconnaissance systems that are often the first-of-a- kind in the world.
