ACS is the nation’s leading progressive legal organization, bringing together law students, attorneys, scholars, judges, policymakers, activists, and other concerned individuals. We work hard to ensure that fundamental principles of human dignity, individual rights and liberties, genuine equality, robust democratic participation, and access to justice – concepts central to our Constitution – remai

n prominent in American law and life. The student chapter at Washington University School of Law lives up to that promise by providing opportunities for interested progressive students to connect and engage with cutting-edge ideas, high-profile speakers, mentors, alumni, and other students who share their interests. At the end of the day, our ACS chapter is about connecting new ideas and passionate people; every year, we are joined by a new group of fresh faces who share our excitement for progressive developments and changes in law and policy, and we look forward to you joining our ACS family!
