Student organization inclusion policy

 

  • Student organizations that keep a list of members in good standing can have occasional members-only events and can restrict voting to members. (But please note that under the current policy, LSA funds may only be used for events that are open to all students in the Law School.)
  • LSA is working on a plan for implementing and enforcing the new policy.

 

Moratorium on LSA funding

 

  • LSA has imposed a moratorium on providing student organizations with additional LSA funding.
  • The moratorium on funding is still in effect as LSA is updating its budget-allocation process.
  • Any questions can be directed to President Alex Kiles at alexkiles@uchicago.edu.

 

Prom on a boat!

 

  • It’s official: Prom is on Friday, May 9, from 9 until 12:30 a.m., and it’s on a BOAT!
  • More details to come

 

Events

 

  • Still working on that brewery tour, but we’re shooting for an evening early next quarter.
