The Student Bar Association (SBA) is the umbrella organization for all student clubs at the University of San Diego. The SBA also serves as the student voice before the faculty and administration. The executive board is composed of the President, Vice-president, Evening Vice-president, Treasurer, and Secretary. These positions are filled through a general election process held each spring.

The SBA budget is amassed by an activity fee assessed to all USD law students. This budget provides funds for student clubs such as the Environmental Law Society, LRAP, Vis Moot Team, Black Law Students Association, Business Law Society, and many more. Each SBA-funded club has membership available to all students and participation therein is encouraged and highly rewarding.

The 2007-2008 SBA Executive Board is committed to making club participation as easy as possible. This website (www.USDsba.org) was created this year to assist clubs in scheduling events and communicating those events to the student body.

The SBA hosts many events which are paramount to law school survival such as the Annual Halloween Party, the Barristers Ball, and bi-weekly Bar Reviews. The SBA also works to create more professional networking opportunities for students through programs like the Alumni-Interactive Program. This year, the SBA launched an on-campus book-exchange, which has already saved USD students thousands of dollars.

The SBA welcomes your participation in SBA meetings (held every other Monday @ noon, room WH2B beginning Aug. 27th) and event planning. Please feel free to contact any of the SBA officers below with your comments and concerns:
