Welcome to SALSA 2012-2013!
The South Asian Law Students’ Association (SALSA) provides a forum for students in the Harvard Law School community who are interested in promoting a network of legal professionals interested in South Asian American and South Asian legal issues.
The organization provides a sense of community for students of South Asian origin and reaches out to the wider law school student body to facilitate dialogue between all students interested in the legal, cultural, and political happenings in the region. We benefit the community through a variety of lectures, panels, film screenings, and social events aimed at educating and motivating students interested in South Asian legal issues and connecting students to law firms interested in diversity outreach.
