The Federalist Society at MSU College of Law is rocking! Our President, Jared Geist 3-L, will be clerking in the Superior Court of New Jersey under The Honorable Kenneth J. Slomienski, J.S.C. And Steve MacGuidwin 3-L, President of the Spartan Law Students Society and Federalist Society member, will be clerking with The Honorable Raymond W. Gruender of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. Steve’s position is one level below the SCOTUS - a great achievement! So, if you see ‘em ’round high five ‘em!
