On Feb. 5, the University of Georgiaâs First Amendment clinic sent its second letter to the Oconee County School Board asking for the board to increase transparency with the community, promote more virtual accessibility to board meetings and unblock members of the community on its Twitter account.
The First Amendment clinic is a semester-long course offered at UGAâs law school to law students after the completion of their first year.
The clinic, which first launched in August 2020, is led by clinic fellow Samantha Hamilton and director Clare Norins.
Mark Bailey, Davis Wright and Amy Morgia, students of the clinic, said the course is incredibly hands-on and the clinic itself functions similarly to a small law firm.
