This is a new event we are planning to run in 2025. Considering our members’ feedback, we are implementing a new event that offers an alternative perspective to the corporate and commercial law space. Many MSLS members also study Criminology and we aim to reach those students by running this event. This event is perfect for criminal law, family law practices, or social justice organisations looking to reach out to students to provide them with information about alternative pathways and also to discuss social justice topics concerning the justice system.
Mental health doesn’t just go away, so it only makes sense to have a check-in during semester 2 as well! Same as Semester 1, come for a chat, come for the free food and drinks, come for the dogs…. just come!
