The HBA Sponsoring 75th Anniversary Commemorative Lapel Pin Sale this Thursday and Friday On Thursday and Friday of this week, September 1-2, 2022, the Honors Board of Advocates will hold a fundraiser selling a limited-edition 75th Anniversary Commemorative Lapel Pins. The lapel pins have the official Law Center seal with the words, “75 Years of Access and Opportunity,” going around it. September celebrates 75 years since the Law Center first opened its doors in September 1947 to thirteen law students. Since then, the Law Center has provided quality legal education to thousands of graduates, is responsible for more than 80% of African-American judges in Louisiana and has graduates working in practically every sector of law across the country and abroad. You can celebrate the anniversary by purchasing a limited-edition lapel pin for only $25 this week. A table will be set up in the Law Center atrium and we will accept cash, checks payable to SULC (Honors Board of Advocates in subject line), credit card, and other forms of payment. Please see the flyer below, and if you have questions, please email HonorsBoard@sulc.edu.
