All students automatically become members of the Student Bar Association (SBA),
the school's overall student government organization. The SBA acts as a liaison
between the student body and the administration and faculty, representing
students' interests in the Law Center community. In addition, the SBA conducts
academic and social programs, allocates funds to student organizations, and
collaborates with student bar associations at other law schools.
The SBA is headed by a student-elected executive board and representatives from
each class in the full-time and part-time divisions. It plays an active role in
governing the school and in establishing school policy, by selecting students
to serve as full voting members on virtually all faculty committees. In
addition, the SBA president participates in, and has a vote at, all faculty
meetings.
