ALSA is welcoming its new board and kicking off a great new school year. After a tremendous turnout at a Dinner Orientation Gathering in Harlem and a Joint Bar Review Educational Session, plans remain in the works for future events.

Thus far, plans for the semester include: a “Lunch and Learn Speaker Series” on issues pertaining to the continent, a movie night featuring a Nollywood film and educational events featuring partnerships with other Columbia Law School Student groups.

On September 19, ALSA also partnered with Columbia’s Latino/a Law Student Assocation and other Columbia identity groups to host Columbia’s first Law School Admissions Conference for People of Color.  The Conference, designed to provide tips and resources to individuals thinking about attending law school, was a huge success — thanks in large part to our volunteers and sponsors!

ALSA would especially like to thank Debevoise and Plimption LLP and Linklaters LLP for their generous contributions to the Law School Admissions Conference For People of Color.  Their contributions helped make the conference a success!
