The goal of the Black Law
Students Association (BLSA) is to provide support and assistance for
African-American students and its members in an atmosphere that will
facilitate learning by all students. We encourage the development of
our members through mentoring programs for 1Ls and participation in
BLSA and community service activities. We sponsor and cosponsor
numerous events with other student organizations to support diverse
opportunities to learn about different cultures, experiences and
perspectives. BLSA is supported by the Sam Cary Bar Association and the
National chapter of BLSA. All students are welcome.

Mission
Statement CU BLSA is an active chapter of the Rocky Mountain Region of
the National Black Law Student Association (NBLSA). NBLSA is a national
organization created and designed to articulate and promote the
professional needs and goals of Black law students; to foster and
encourage professional competence; to focus upon the relationship of
the Black attorney to the American legal system; to instill in the
Black attorney and law student a greater awareness of and commitment to
the needs of the Black community; to utilize their expertise to
initiate a change within the legal system that will make it more
responsive to the needs and concerns of the Black community; to do any
and all things necessary and lawful for the accomplishment of these
goals.
CU BLSA
enables black students of African descent to acclimate into the CU Law
School environment to facilitate the exchange of various cultural
experiences and perspectives in support of a more diverse learning
opportunity. CU BLSA assists black students of African descent to
integrate into the CU Law School environment through supplemental
academic and mentoring programs, jointly sponsored activities and
events with other law student organizations, as well as coordinated
networking and community service projects in the Denver/Boulder
metropolitan area. CU BLSA supports our student members through tighter
alliances with CU Law School faculty and administration, DU Law School
BLSA, and the Sam Carey Bar Association.
