This week's edition features Professor Rachel Anderson, student Andrew Dunning, and alumna Jenny Routheaux '08.

Dunning serves as a student attorney in Boyd's Juvenile Justice Clinic, providing accused children advocacy and a voice. Through the clinic, he is involved with legislative efforts to protect the rights of minors in court and assists in preventing juvenile offenders from being charged and tried as adults. Dunning has served as an articles editor for the UNLV Gaming Law Journal, legacy historian for Phi Alpha Delta, research assistant to Professor Jean Sternlight, student associate for LexisNexis, Steiger Fellow for the Nevada Attorney General's Office, and judicial extern for the Honorable Philip Pro in United States District Court.
