Student Organizations
We are proud of the extensive student organizations our law school offers. This not only enhances your law school experience, but is a wonderful way to remain even more engaged and active during your time here.

Our Office of Student Services takes very seriously its commitment to support our students and student organizations. We work closely with our student organizations and student leaders to give them the assistance that they need to thrive and succeed.  We also provide advice and assistance to students who wish to start a new student organization.  Following are the links to more information about student organizations recognized during the 2012-2013 academic year.
Student Organizations

International Law Society

The ILS is a student organization interested in international law and world affairs. As one of the largest student organizations on campus, the ILS provides many unique opportunities for its members by planning both social and academic activities. As a chapter of the International Law Student Association, a national organization, the ILS lets students know of international legal events going on around the globe.

The CWRU ILS Chapter provides:

A forum for students to discuss and learn more about international issues. We cosponsor visiting foreign lecturers with the Frederick K. Cox International Law Center. In previous years, the ILS has hosted several student led discussions and movie nights on controversial international topics. Case has an amazing Jessup International Law and North America Moot Court team, which the ILS has supported in recent years. Finally, the ILS hosts an entire week of internationally focused lunch events for all law school students on careers, study abroad, international human rights and international business opportunities.

Networking. ILS members attend luncheons with the Greater Cleveland International Lawyers Group (GCILG), one of the largest groups of lawyers in the country with an international focus. Also, the ILS keeps students informed of international job openings by working closely with the CSO.

Social events. The ILS sponsors a number of social events including Festivus, a multi-cultural food celebration, and an International Beer Tasting in coordination with the SBA and many other student organizations. At these two main social events, the ILS raised over $1000 for Hearts for Haiti, International AIDS week and the Invisible Children last year! We also host dynamic film screenings on international legal issues, this year we were one of the few law schools selected to host a screening of the film “War Don Don” with the director, Rebecca Richman Cohen.
