This past weekend, from March 17-19, 2006, Democratic law students from across the country convened at Harvard Law School to kickoff a new association of Democratic law students, the National Democratic Law Students Council (NDLSC). Headlined by the DNC Chairman, Gov. Howard Dean, the convention brought together 140 students from 33 schools with a common purpose: to forge a new organization devoted to promoting the work that law school Democratic groups do on campuses while connecting them with the voter protection and other efforts of Democratic lawyers.
Delegates of varied backgrounds from as far away as Kentucky, Oklahoma, Texas, New York, and California came together at this inaugural event, attending a series of panels, talks, and trainings relating to the intersection between law and politics, and electing national officers to move the new organization into the next year. David Burd and Russell Anello, third-year and second-year students at Harvard Law School, respectively, led the organizational effort.
