I am delighted to welcome you to the Melbourne University Law Students’ Society (MULSS) website. Here you will find out about all things weird and wonderful related to life at Melbourne Law School.
Our organisation is the longest standing law student society in Australia, and we continue to provide first-class services to all our JD and LLB students. Our aim is simple – to provide you with the best possible student experience at law school. This includes time spent inside and outside the classroom.
We co-ordinate our efforts into five main areas:
While many of our initiatives are geared towards preparing you for work or exams, or taking away the financial strain associated with tertiary study, we also try and ‘take the pressure down’ now and then. Whether this is having a beer on the lawns at a BBQ, mentoring a high school student through difficult circumstances, or rehearsing your stand-up comedy act for Law School’s Got Talent, there are plenty of chances to get involved in some capacity. With the JD now in full swing, many of you will be finished your law degrees in less than 3 years. I encourage you to take the time to enjoy your surroundings at law school, as there is so much to enjoy in a very limited time-frame. Those sorts of eclectic experiences will shape your time here at Melbourne Law School.
If you’re on campus, feel free to drop by our office on level 2 at any stage of the year – even if it’s only for a quick chat or to see what events we’re running.
Most importantly, please remember that we are your primary port of call for any issue or idea you want support with, and our door is always open. I will usually be around the office, or alternatively you can contact me at lss-president@unimelb.edu.au
I wish you the best of luck for what is shaping as a great year ahead,
Antony Freeman - LSS President (2012)
