ABOUT BULA
BULA's History
The Black Undergraduate Law Association
was reorganized during the summer of 2003 under the visionary leadership
of its new president, Danielle Beasley, vice president, Allayna
Ratliff, treasurer, Jamaal Chatman, and the prodigious efforts of its
board members: Dana Powers, Jennifer Swayne, Anitra Cammon, and
Bolaji Olasokan. It has been our greatest labor of love to ensure
that from this day forward, BULA is a driving force in helping nurture
and develop tomorrows most talented and compassionate black lawyers
through today's noble efforts. We feel that BULA has made great
strides in becoming an organization that seeks to provide the crucial
information that will turn our members legal aspirations into a
reality. Thus, we greatly welcome you to join us on our journey.
BULA...The Organization
The Black Undergraduate Law Association is a Princeton Review endorsed, student
run, pre - professional organization that seeks to inform, enlighten,
and empower motivated University of Michigan students to pursue
the vast opportunities and rewards of a legal career. Our principle
aim is to serve as a bridge of information and support at all the
various stages of our diverse memberships’ pre - professional
development. Some of the services that BULA provides to accomplish
these goals are discounts and scholarships on LSAT preparation,
LSAT strategy workshops with Princeton Review, community service activities,
lectures by informed pre - law advisors and helpful advice on how
to best navigate our fellowships’ academic careers. Though
BULA continually strives to unite interested students of the law
and faculty into a solid bond that will help them to achieve their
pre - law endeavors, we also ardently encourage tenacity in scholarship,
compassion in public service, and most importantly the courage
to always advocate for unbiased equity under the law. Thus, we
are more than just an organization dedicated to the success of
our members, but a caring community of minority scholars sincere
in our efforts to make a difference in the lives of all we meet. |
