Welcome to Harvard Law School! The HLS Student Government strives to support the education of the Student Body of Harvard Law School, leaders who will contribute to the advancement of justice and well-being in society. Our primary mission is to defend the welfare of the Student Body, advocate for policy changes for the benefit of the Student Body, and promote shared student governance.
We are proud to represent the student body of Harvard Law School.
What We Do
Advocacy to the Administration
We are the student body’s voice to Dean Goldberg, Administration, and Faculty. Your problems are our problems, and your wants are our wants.
Student Organizations
We support student organizations in many capacities, from allocating their funding to ensuring that Administration is meeting student organization needs effectively.
Fostering Community
We bring the community together through events like HLS Talks and monthly campus-wide events like beach trips and apple-picking. Law school is tough, and a tight knit community is essential.
Health and Wellness
The wellness of our students is our chief concern. Combatting the mental health issues endemic to HLS — and changing the law school experience for the better — is our calling.
Enhancing Inclusion
We are proud of the diversity at HLS, but we know we can do better. Making diversity a constant priority and ensuring the inclusion of all members of HLS is how we will do this.
Improving Academics
From increasing academic transparency to creating outline banks, we seek to build an environment that is conducive to the academic growth of our students.
