WOMEN LAW STUDENTS' ASSOCIATION
The Women Law Students' Association (WLSA), has been a part of the St. Louis University School of Law community for more than a decade. This organization, comprised of more than 100 members, is dedicated to providing a forum for addressing issues that are of concern to women in the legal profession.
WOMEN LAW STUDENTS' ASSOCIATION MISSION STATEMENT
The Women Law Students' Association strives to create a communication network between WLSA members at St. Louis University School of Law through social and educational events; to bridge the gap between the educational and professional worlds through mentoring programs with local female attorneys; and to perform charitable works that especially benefit women and children, as well as the Law School community.
MEMBERSHIP
Membership is open to all St. Louis University School of Law students, faculty, and staff.
WLSA has general meetings monthly for both the day and evening students. Members are asked to attend one of these meetings each month.
For Fall 2003, our first meeting is Friday, Aug. 29 at noon in Room 04. The subsequent day time meetings will be on the second Monday of each month at noon, i.e. Oct. 13 and Nov. 10. Evening meetings are scheduled for the following Thursday at 5:30 p.m., i.e. Sept. 4, Oct. 15 and Nov. 12.
DUES
Yearly dues of $10.00 are used to fund the cost of monthly lunch meetings and special events including the Annual Judges' Reception, Panel Discussion, and Fall BBQ. Members are encouraged to help plan and attend these important networking events, and to make contacts with attorney and judges in the St. Louis area.
