The Student Bar Association (SBA) is the student government of Notre Dame Law School (NDLS), and all students are considered members. The Association facilitates student life at the Law School, sponsoring social, spiritual, and academic events, including New Student Orientation, the appointment of students to various faculty committees, intramural athletics, Mass, and several social functions throughout the year. The Association works closely with the Law School’s Administration to promote students’ interests and strives to maintain a favorable environment for students, staff, and faculty alike. The Association's Cabinet is led by a four-member Executive Board, consisting of the President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer, all elected to one-year terms. Together, the Executive Board and the Cabinet endeavor to represent the diverse and vibrant community that exists at NDLS. At the national level, the Association is a member of the Law Student Division of the American Bar Association.
The Student Bar Association is committed to diversity and inclusion and does not discriminate in its membership, events, or other activities on the basis of race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, national origin, socioeconomic class, ability, age, or background.
