The purpose of the JLSA shall be to provide a community within the law school for those students interested in Jewish faith and religion. Additionally, the JLSA will also serve the purpose of connecting current law student members to Jewish alumni of the Law School. The JLSA also serves as a vehicle for students to combat hate speech, including, but not limited to, antisemitism.

The JLSA will offer community-enriching activities and events to promote knowledge and awareness of Jewish culture, as well as professionally-focused networking events to connect current law students with Law School alumni.

The JLSA will sponsor fora where all viewpoints are invited, discussed, and respected. The JLSA will also serve as a liaison between the Jewish professional law community and the student body through alumni mentoring programs and networking events that introduce students to Jewish alumni practitioners. At all times, the JLSA will demonstrate respect for the University and Law School mission statements.
