Events Calendar

The Spring Pledge Drive is our biggest fundraising event. During the weeks before and after Spring Break, we raise money from around the UT law community. Students donate money so their peers can enter public service. Alumni, faculty, and staff pitch in as well with donations and class incentives. Many law firms match student donations.

The Chicano/Hispanic Law Students' Association will grill on-site and serve plates of fresh beef, chicken, and veggie tacos to support scholarships.

TJCLCR's annual symposium on current civil rights issues.

Beyond Any Bar, the law student association for students considering nontraditional careers, is hosting a speaker panel to discuss paths to a successful nontraditional career in business and community consulting, and oil, gas, and mineral land exploration and production.
