To establish a support system for public interest-minded students at the University of Michigan, OPIS links up first-, second-, and third-year students into mentorship groups. Members share information about class selection, job hunting, how to establish professional contacts, summer funding, and a host of other public interest issues.

OPIS History

The Organization of Public Interest Students (formerly the Public Interest Group and then the Public Interest and Community Service Organization ) was formed by University of Michigan Law Students in 1990 to support and encourage students who are considering pursuing a career in public interest, and to be a voice for those students within the law school.
