Promoting Law to the Next Generation - Beyond Street Law

Some law schools have Street Law Projects to promote law in high schools and to the general public. On the Georgetown University website it states that "[s]ince 1972, the D.C. Street Law Clinic has provided law-related educational services in the District of Columbia and has served as a model for Street Law programs both nationally and internationally." (See Georgetown here) Many schools offer law school credit to students who participate in teaching as part of a street law project. (see here). 

But retired Justice O'Connor moves this education into the new technological era. She has come up with a new educational tool for promoting the law in future generations - a video game.  Check out Claudia Parsons,  Reuters (Fox News), Retired U.S. Justice O'Connor Unveils Video Game.
