Lambda Law at The George Washington University Law School

Lambda Law is an organization of law students interested in lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) legal issues, employment concerns, and the fostering of tolerance and awareness on campus. The organization provides a network for professional and social interaction between LGBT and ally students, faculty, and legal professionals, and for the education of the Law School community about issu

es facing LGBT individuals. The organization was involved in adding "sexual orientation" to GW's nondiscrimination policy, developing and implementing programs with the Career Development Office regarding legal job search issues facing GLBT students, and discussing the Law School’s position toward issues concerning military recruiters on campus. Ongoing events include a mentor program with LGBTQ+ attorneys in Washington, discussions on current legal issues and developments, attendance at national legal conferences, educational activities for major advocacy events such as National Coming Out Day and Freedom to Marry Day, and social events with the Law School and other local law student groups. All students are welcome and encouraged to join Lambda Law in an effort to increase awareness and acceptance at the Law School.
