Empowering Women in Law UMich is the second established chapter of the national Empowering Women in Law organization. We are an organization that serves to bring together dedicated, like-minded students to discuss issues involving women in the world of law, while working together to achieve our professional and academic goals.We host bi-weekly meetings in which we invite prominent speakers - including women lawyers, judges, and politicians - to come in and share their experiences as a woman in the legal field, answer your questions, and provide invaluable advice and networking opportunities. Most of these meetings take place on Zoom, as we are able to have a larger, more impressive variety of speakers join us on this platform. In addition to speaker meetings, we also host bonding events like group dinners or study sessions so members can connect with peers and develop resourceful friendships.EWIL also hosts law school tours, provides members with LSAT prep class discounts, and participates in philanthropy aimed at improving educational opportunities for women and girls.EWIL began as an organization at Michigan State University in 2018, and enjoyed great success and membership participation there. As a result, EWIL has expanded to and will continue to expand as a national organization.
