Description
BLSA's goal and purpose is based on cultural and social awareness by assisting and producing successful, productive lawyers and professionals. Additionally, this goal is achieved by facilitating the creation of opportunities for Black Americans and other minority groups. This is an organization that can assist law students in their career goals, including increased networking in the legal profession, internship opportunities, and introductions to multiple job fairs and legal forums.
The mission of BLSA...
Our mission also includes outreach to the community by creating and assisting in community-based programs. Students of the Black Law Student Association (BLSA) promote unity within the UMass community and Black Law Student Associations at other law schools. A membership with BLSA can provide students with a valuable experience that can assist them in the legal profession today and in the future.
