Jocelyn Powell
Class of 2007
Swainsboro, Georgia
Walter F. George Public Service Scholar

"My summer at Georgia Legal Services as a Dan Bradley Fellow allowed me to combine my previous work experiences in public service with the new legal skills I've acquired at Mercer. Briefs, petitions, orders, affidavits, wills, memos, hearings, letters and phone calls became completely different tasks once I listened to the stories of the clients and their families who needed legal services. I'm excited about a future in public interest law and grateful to Mercer for making it possible."
