Latino Law Student Association
Mission Statement
The Latino Law Student Association (LLSA) seeks
to remedy the under representation of Latinos in
all segments of the legal community. To achieve
this goal, LLSA assists the Admissions Office on
recruitment matters and strives to provide Latino
students enrolled with strong academic and social
support. Furthermore, LLSA welcomes ALL individuals
who are interested or curious to learn about Latin
culture and legal issues specific to our communities.
LLSA also works closely with other schools, and
various community and private organizations to improve
conditions for the social group as a whole.
Major Activities
Celebration of National Hispanic Heritage Month, Salsa Night, Latin Dance Lessons, Movie Night, Speakers, Big Brothers/Big Sisters and any other relevant Latino centered activities, which may arise.
Watch video of the Melendez Death Penalty Lecture, held March 28, 2007.
