The Bankruptcy Law Society (BLS) was formed by a group of
students in the fall of 1990. Since then, membership has grown as
well as the society’s presence throughout the school. The objective
of the Bankruptcy Law Society is to provide students with practical
knowledge of bankruptcy law. The Annual Judge Conrad B. Duberstein
National Bankruptcy Moot Court Competition is co-sponsored by the
BLS, the ABI Law Review, and the Moot Court. Schools from around
the country participate in this prestigious competition. BLS
provides student membership in the American Bankruptcy Institute
(ABI). BLS also holds meetings and provides special events that
feature distinguished judges and practicing attorneys speaking on
current issues in the field of bankruptcy.
