In 1969, she attended Yale law school, where she was one of only 27 women among 235 law students.  On May 7, 1970, she addressed the League of Women Voters in Washington, a sign of her growing prominence.  Always active in campus politics, she ended up becoming something of a communications facilitator, as she had been at Wellesley, between potentially radical student elements and the college administration during the era of extreme student unrest in 1970.  She was written up on hometown and New England newspapers, and was interviewed on Irv Kupcinet's nationally syndicated TV talk show from Chicago.  That summer, she worked in Washington for Marian Wright Edelman's Washington Research Project, where she conducted research on migrant children's health and education difficulties, especially in the South.  Her subsequent studies at Yale were concentrated on how the law affected children.  At Yale in 1971, she met Bill Clinton, her future husband, also a law student at Yale.

Which included stealing the briefs for the Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas dealing with an impeachment proceeding in 1970 and writing in her brief that there was no precedent to impeachment proceedings requiring counsul.<ref>http://downtrend.com/robertgehl/while-on-watergate-committee-hillary-was-fired-for-lying-unethical-behavior</ref>
