Student Organizations

The diversity and variety of student clubs and organizations that thrive at UC Hastings is reflective of the intellectual energy, passion, and sense of community that defines student life on our campus. In addition to playing an active role in the everyday functioning of the law school, as well as representing the school with distinction at conferences, seminars, competitions, and other events across the world, our students are founders and active participants of more than 60 organizations. Addressing everything from specific legal specialties to diverse political, ethnic, and cultural issues and interests, these organizations enable our students to forge lifelong connections with one another, pursue their extracurricular interests, and gain invaluable leadership skills. Below is a current list of student organizations:

All student organizations may be contacted via regular mail at University of California, Hastings College of the Law, 200 McAllister St., San Francisco, CA 94102.    For additional information online about an organization, please see the Student Organizations index.
