The Latino Law Student Association helps Latino students to become effective participants in law school and to serve the Hispanic community.
"We cannot seek achievement for ourselves and forget about progress and prosperity for our community...Our ambitions must be broad enough to include the aspirations of and needs of others, for their sakes and for our own." - Cesar E. Chavez
The Indiana University Maurer School of Law - Latina/o Law Student Association aims to increase awareness about the legal issues affecting Latinos/as. Not only do we focus connecting our networks and social mobility within the growing Latino/a community in Bloomington, Indiana, but also across the country.
Our group welcomes both Latino/a law school students and individuals interested in the Latino culture, history, and legal issues. We are an inclusive organization that advocates and discusses legal, political, and social issues that affect Latinos and other minority groups.
Members enjoy the benefits of alumni networking organizations, the ability to learn from scholars and professors working on Latino/a legal issues, scholarship opportunities, and other social events. Also, we invite everyone to come and share the experience of the vibrant Latina/o culture at IU Maurer School of Law.
Our school is committed to diversity in the legal profession; therefore, we are interested and eager to bring students from different backgrounds and cultures. Our student body benefits from the interaction of different legal arguments shaped by culture, ethnicity, socio-economic background, and political views.
Some of our members volunteer at El Centro Communal Latino Legal Program, which provides legal services for Latinos/as in Bloomington, and others speak out and advocate for social justice and equality in legal forums and speaking engagements. Our organization brings speakers and creates events to bring awareness about issues affecting the Latino/a community.
We want your academic and legal success to flourish at our institution, and we hope to work with you in our endeavor to bring social justice, equality, and awareness about the issues affecting Latinos/as and other minorities in the global community.
