<p>Hi funsizedjas, I did a separate post about a program in DC called the St. Albans School of Public Service that might be something you’d want to look at. </p>
<p>I am sort of thinking I might like to go to law school too some day and this program was pretty cool because, although it had a wider government/public policy/leadership angle, we also did some law-related things like do a mock Supreme Court argument of a current case (we did a case about whether a state could ban violent video games) and have a one-on-one session with a US Supreme Court judge! We also used the “case study method” in classroom discussions which is what they do in law school. It’s a four week program and it wasn’t free but it seemed like they offered a lot of financial aid (kids in my program were on full and partial scholarships).</p>
<p>Here’s a post from the program’s blog about our Supreme Court mock case: [School</a> of Public Service Blog: SPS 2011: The “SPS Supreme Court” is In Session!](<a href=“http://schoolofpublicservice.blogspot.com/2011/06/sps-2011-sps-supreme-court-is-in.html]School”>School of Public Service Blog: SPS 2011: The "SPS Supreme Court" is In Session!)</p>
