Everything you need to know about the Judge Selection Program.
⚖️ Your Role
As a judge in the Gray Gavel Society Judge Selection Program, you will review résumés submitted by Drexel University undergrad students and rank your top three choices. Each judge independently selects students — there is no right or wrong answer. Your instinct and professional experience are the only criteria.
🟢 Profile Status Dots
Every student card has a colored dot next to their name showing how complete their submission is:
Green — Profile fully complete and résumé uploaded. Ready to review.
Yellow — Some information filled in but incomplete. May be missing résumé or details.
Red — Account created but profile barely filled in.
🏆 Ranking Your Top 3
You can rank up to 3 students in order of preference:
#1 First Choice — Your top pick. This is your primary selection.
#2 Second Choice — Your backup if your first choice is taken.
#3 Third Choice — Your third option if both above are taken.
To rank a student, click "+ Rank #1" (or #2, #3) on their card. You can remove or change rankings at any time before the deadline.
🔒 "Taken" Students
If a student shows Taken on their card, another judge has already selected them as their #1 choice. You can still rank them as your #2 or #3, but they will not be available as a primary selection. The program coordinator will handle any conflicts.

The Gray Gavel Society
About Our Program
The Gray Gavel Society is a student organization at Drexel University dedicated to preparing aspiring legal and pre-professional students for careers in law, advocacy, and public service.
Through our Judge Selection Program, accomplished judges review student résumés and each selects one student to spend a day in their professional world — giving students an invaluable, real-world experience they cannot get in the classroom.
How it works
① Create your account and complete your profile
② Upload your résumé
