Upholding the Balance We Seek

Welcome to the home page of the University of Pennsylvania Black Law Students Association (BLSA)! Penn Law BLSA is the second-oldest student group at the University of Pennsylvania Law School and has remained an active and vibrant force, both locally and nationally, for over three decades. 

We strongly believe that the legal justice system should be reflective of the many different types of people that it governs, in order to ensure balance and equality in the application of the law. Our organization prepares our members to be successful and socially aware members of the greater legal community by providing academic, professional, and social support throughout the three years of law school. We are dedicated to maintaining connections with our distinguished alumni, and to reaching back to talented undergraduates to make sure that Penn Law is and remains a diverse space.  

In striving to balance the scales of justice through diversity and representation, we at Penn Law BLSA know that we must first Be The Change and Uphold The Balance We Seek. Our programs are designed to further those goals.

Please feel free to contact us about any legal, political or social issues affecting our community.
