The SBA is actively involved in academic, administrative, and social decisions at the law school. It acts as a liaison to the administration, faculty, and board of trustees. Interested students are appointed by the SBA to serve as representatives on most faculty and law school committees. During the year, the SBA sponsors social, professional, and community service activities. Recent social events have included trips to Red Sox games, whale watches, harbor cruises, and theater outings.
Free passes are available to several area museums.
Students play Saturday morning intramural basketball. Events planned jointly with other Boston law schools provide an opportunity to meet other law students and programs organized with local bar associations offer contact with the legal community. The New England School of Law chapter aims to promote awareness of the freedoms of expression of speech, religion, and association that are guarantee by the Constitution. The group has sponsored guest speakers and has offered a platform for the law school community to voice opinions on controversial issues affecting the school. Working with the Minority Student Association and the Charles Hamilton Houston Enrichment Program, it promotes the advancement of Asian minorities in the legal community.
