The Securities Law Student Association (SLSA) is unique among the student organizations. It is both a student affinity group as well as an integral component of the governing structure of the Law School's Securities Law Program.
Education does not stop at the classroom door. The Securities Law Students Association (SLSA) offers its members many opportunities to expand their understanding of Securities and Corporate law. The SLSA is a student affinity group as well as an integral component of the governing structure of the Law School's Securities Law Program. In its double capacity, it provides an opportunity for students with interest in securities and business law to work together with the Director of the Securities Law Program to help organize social and academic events, as well as networking events with alumni and other practitioners of Securities and Corporate law.
SLSA students administer the mentor/mentee program with our alumni and friends of the Securities Law Program. This puts SLSA members in direct contact with numerous distinguished practitioners in the field. SLSA students also help to arrange the annual Alumni Luncheon, to which many SLSA members are invited to attend. It is also the SLSA students who promote and generally participate in the University's highly successful Securities Moot Court Program. Finally, the SLSA organization serves as a sounding board for the Securities Law Program. From SLSA members come ideas for speakers, new courses, and social events.
To join SLSA please e-mail us your name, address, year in law school, and some mention the nature of your interest in securities law. Once on the SLSA mailing list, you will receive notice of upcoming events, information on how to participate in commercial and bar programs in securities law, and news about developments in the Securities Law Program.
