Student Organizations Our students develop leadership skills and broaden their understanding of the law in practice by participating in the more than 60 active student organizations at the law school. The variety of organizations reflects the diverse interests of our energetic student body. For example, Lambda Law co-hosts a networking event in combination with the Career Center; the Student Animal Legal Defense Fund holds charity events, hosts a speakers’ series, and participates in national animal law competitions; and the J.
