 elcome to the most active, minority, pre-law organization on Harvard's campus. Established in 2006, BPLA is a young student-run organization -- but at the same time it is flexible and ever-expanding. Just this year, we have already broadened our membership base, collaborated with a non-profit organization in Boston, and held a successful mixer with Big Sibs from Harvard’s Black Law Students Association (BLSA).
This spring semester however, is shaping up to be even more exciting and informative than the last. In addition to our Black and Brilliant Banquet in February, where we will collaborate with other black organizations on campus to honor exceptional seniors that have dedicated a commitment to service in the community, our members will also have the opportunity to attend a live Harvard Law School class, sit in on a legal panel, and to seek summer and career placement opportunities at our annual Law Internship and Career Fair in March. To learn more about our events and projects, please check out our website, read our upcoming Due Process newsletter, or feel free to grab one of our members around campus!
