Legal, Civic, Leadership

Programs on this page tend to be multidisciplinary, with the intent of bringing together like-minded peers wanting to connect, transform, and inspire. Opportunities are split into the following categories; however, there is substantial overlap in student interests that may fall into any one of these groupings:

  • Pre-Law

  • Public Policy, Civic Engagement, Social Justice

  • International Relations & Global Culture
