Alumnus Graham Goldberg Awarded Law Fellowship

Posted June 28, 2018

Graham Goldberg, alumnus of the Georgia Tech School of Public Policy, was awarded a fellowship by the University of Georgia School of Law to pursue a judicial clerkship for summer 2018. He will clerk with DeKalb County State Court Judge Michael J. “Mike” Jacobs. The fellowship provides the opportunity to learn the judiciary’s role in the legal system, as well as to develop critical legal thinking and writing skills.

He has served as a legislative aide to Georgia State Representative Mary Margaret Oliver. During the 2013 Georgia Tech Student Day at the Capitol, Goldberg and his Georgia Tech colleagues were recognized on the floor of the Georgia House Chamber with a resolution sponsored by all of the members of the Georgia Tech delegation: Representatives Mike Dudgeon, Buzz Brockway, Geoff Duncan, Dan Gasaway, Ronnie Mabra, and Eddie Lumsden. The resolution spoke to the students’ dedication to serving the Institute and their commitment to progress.

Goldberg interned in the office of a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, David Scott, representing Georgia’s 13th Congressional District. During the course of his internship, Goldberg attended briefings and committee hearings on behalf of staff members and wrote summaries of the meetings, wrote letters responding to constituent concerns and questions, led tours of the U.S. Capitol building for the congressman’s constituents, and greeted constituents and guests at the congressman’s office.

As an undergraduate student, Goldberg served in the inaugural cohort of the Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts student ambassadors and was a recipient of the Outstanding Undergraduate Student in Public Policy Award.
