Word From The President:
It is a great day to be a member of the Constance Slaughter-Harvey Chapter of the National Black Law Students Association. This has been a year of taking firm steps into a brighter future and sharing our success with our immediate community! Our theme for the year is “A New Day BLSA!” By this, I hoped to inspire each member to hold on to the good of the past, while challenging them to play an active and positive role in our chapter, in our community, and in the lives of law students to come. For it is only through the body that our vision truly manifests.
Thus far this year, we have accomplished just that!!! Last semester, we exceeded any expectation I had for the school year. Through the dedication and diligent efforts of our members, in just one semester we were able to volunteer at local elementary schools and at the local Boys & Girls Club, network with professors and alumni, and assist our new students in successfully adjusting to the rigors of law school. This semester, you can expect even more! Please check our calendar for upcoming events such as our Black History Program and Fashion Show Fundraiser!
Above all, what I love most about this chapter is that we exceed beyond measure in the intangible. This year, we have truly shown that we value “being there” for one another. Whether it is taking time out to sign a birthday card for a classmate or congratulating our members on their accomplishments, BLSA is always there!!!! To me, this is what being a truly faithful member is about! Hats off to our members!
Sincerely,
Natalie King
BLSA President 2010-2011
