Student Life and Leadership

At Case Western Reserve University School of Law our students participate in over forty student organizations. And those numbers keep growing. We support the creativity and energy of our students, whose initiative and leadership have led to the creation of new student groups every year.

The student organizations at Case Western Reserve School of Law are much more than a vehicle for exploring legal interests with peers; they provide a valuable proving ground for leadership skill development and extraordinary opportunities to work with Case Western Reserve professors and national legal practitioners.

A few of our organizations are highlighted below. Visit our student organizations page for more information about our 40+ student organizations.
