The official Facebook page for the Black Lawyers Association Students Chapter - UKZN, Howard College
The BLA Student Chapter of Howard Campus is noted for providing its members with vacation work for 2nd, 3rd and 4th year students at various law firms around the country as well as providing 1st year students with the opportunity to experience the legal world by conducting the “Take a First Year to Work” programme. These programmes are well received and it distinguishes us from the rest. We also provide examination support workshops. This year (2015) we will be introducing new and exciting programmes for the members to partake in. We therefore urge all law students to join our association.
