Student Life
Schulich Law is a close knit, collegial community of faculty, staff and students. Students have many opportunities to contribute to life at the law school and in the broader community by getting involved in one of our many student societies.
All law students are members of the聽Law Students' Society聽(LSS) which appoints representatives to faculty committees, arranges for speakers to visit the school, and organizes social events and programs. It also oversees publication of a law students' newspaper,听The Weldon Times,听The Dalhousie Journal of Legal Studies, and the annual yearbook.
Student life at the Schulich School of Law聽is enriched through the activities and initiatives of our student societies. Students are encouraged to join existing groups or form their own new society.聽
