Student Organizations

St. John’s Law is committed to the pursuit of excellence in learning, professionalism, and service. Student organizations play a critical role in that pursuit, providing invaluable opportunities for students’ professional development and furthering the Law School’s service-oriented mission. Throughout the year, student organizations host a variety of events and programs, including:

  • Lectures
  • Panels
  • Film screenings
  • Social hours
  • Student discussions
  • Field outings
  • Community outreach

In all of their activities, our student organizations get support and guidance from the Law School’s Student Bar Association (SBA) and its elected student leaders. Our faculty and administration also help the SBA and its member student organizations build connections, animate scholarly debate, and contribute to our thriving St. John’s Law community.

Our student organizations, which include multiple shared identity groups, reflect the wonderful diversity of backgrounds, interests, and perspectives at St. John’s Law. They warmly invite all current students to enhance their Law School experience by participating in one or more organizations.
