Mr. George Smith

Dear Mr. Smith:

I would like to be considered for a summer clerkship with your law firm. I am
interested in your firm's environmental and constitutional practice areas. Your work,
and that of Mr. Jones, in Miller v. Eco-Dynamic Services, Inc. impressed me because
of my concern for clean water in Indiana, and the need for government agencies to
regulate solid waste disposal.

I will complete my first year at the Indiana University Maurer School of Law in May.
My undergraduate degree is in history and political science.

I have enclosed my resume. I will call your office on Thursday, March 25th, to inquire
about openings.

Respectfully,

Paul Pill
