Dear Pre-Law Advisor,
My name is Jessica Childress, and I am the National Director of the College Student Division of the National Black Law Students Association. The College Student Division is a subsidiary of NBLSA which informs pre-law students about the law school application process, law school, and the legal profession.
It is my pleasure to invite pre-law students from your school to NBLSA's first annual College Student Division Law Fair and Workshop which will be held at the Grand Hyatt in Cambridge, Massachusetts on March 12 and March 13, respectively. This year, the law fair will be held during NBLSA's annual convention, and we hope to have pre-law students from around the nation to be in attendance at this inaugural event.
Attached to this email, you will find detailed information regarding the National Convention and the CSD events that will be held during the Convention. Please disseminate this information to pre-law students at your school.
Please contact me or the Northeast Regional Director of the College Student Division, Alana St. Aude, (neblsa.lawcamp@gmail.com) if you have any additional questions.
Best regards,
Jessica Childress
Greeting from the National Director of the College Student Divison Dear Pre-Law Student,
I am extremely excited to announce that on March 10-14, 2010 the National Black Law Students Association (NBLSA) will be holding our 42nd Annual Convention in Cambridge, MA. The College Student Division (CSD) of NBLSA will be hosting exciting events for pre-law students.
CSD is a subsidiary of NBLSA which informs pre-law students about the law school application process, law school, and the legal profession. CSD will be hosting a law fair during the convention with law school recruiters from around the country on Friday, March 12. Immediately following the law fair, we will be holding a networking reception with law school recruiters, exclusively for our members. This reception will offer CSD members a chance to speak with recruiters individually in a more casual setting. On March 13, CSD will be hosting a panel with students from various graduate and professional schools, including, but not limited to law school. NBLSA conventions have always been an enjoyable event for all who attend. Attending the convention will allow you to network with law students, attorneys, and law school recruiters from around the country. Additionally, you will be able to attend a variety of the informative panels and workshops addressing contemporary issues that affect the black legal community. Registration for regular admission to the Convention is $75.00. This fee includes admission to all Convention
workshops (including, but not limited to, CSD workshops), luncheons, and our awards Gala. This fee does not include hotel accommodations, flight accommodations, or admission to special events at the Convention (i.e. the Winter Wonderland Reception, an off-site event open only to members 21 years old and older). However, you are welcome to attend this event at an additional cost, if you are 21 or older. Convention registration is now open online. To register, visit http://a3.acteva.com/orderbooking/loadEventRegistration.action?skuId=4B65DD560125ED15A545423800A129AC&catalogId=4B65DD5601250417537918F70081CB85&catalogGoWord=&emailAttendeeId=
Please see registration instructions on page 2 of this newsletter. I sincerely hope to see each of you in Cambridge. Encourage those interested in attending the Convention to
register online, even if they are not CSD members. Students who are interested in attending must be CSD members before the Convention date, but they can submit their CSD applications at the same time that they register for the convention. Please see page 2 of this newsletter for more information regarding the Convention, and email me if I can be of further assistance.
Best regards,
Jessica Childress
