"I’ve had the pleasure to attend several events hosted by RCLA, such as the LSAT Bootcamp, Lawyer Panel, and Women in Law. Being able to meet other likeminded students and network with industry professionals is one of the biggest reasons why I continued to be involved with RCLA! I have really gotten to know the field much better through my times as a participant, so I highly encourage YOU to sign up for the events if you want to pursue law!”
