This workshop provided valuable insights on interviewing strategies to help students secure 2L internships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We prepared members for in-firm interviews, offering tips to build confidence and increase success in the recruitment process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Navigating 1L can be tough, but no one has to do it alone! This session provided culturally responsive survival strategies and launched the BLSA Academic Resource Drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We hosted an insightful discussion on anti-Black racism in the criminal justice system with panelists Justice Faisal Mirza (Superior Court of Justice) and Professor Danardo Jones (Associate Professor, Windsor Law).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mentors and mentees came together in a supportive space to study and connect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
