Get Free Drinks, Give Back
Support the Post-Graduate Student Funded Fellowship by stopping by Pub Night for some free drinks and to learn more about the fellowship and ways you can donate.
The Post-Graduate Student Funded Fellowship is a new, completely student-led initiative to fund public interest work by HLS graduates. It aims not only to support our fellow students but also to build a greater sense of community on campus.
Consisting entirely of donations by HLS students, once funded the Fellowship will be awarded to an applicant with a demonstrated dedication to public interest work and a specific project proposal who has been unable to finding funding elsewhere.
For more information, please visit: http://www.law.harvard.edu/students/orgs/fellowship/

HLS Food Society: Call for Members
There’s a new group attempting to get started on campus called the Society for Food, Health and Sustainability (“The Food Society”). The Food Society would be a non-partisan, student-run organization that creates legal, intellectual and practical opportunities for HLS students to engage in food issues.
Some of the current ideas for activities include:
* Bringing speakers to campus to discuss food policy and its effect on public health, the environment, national security and development;
* Organizing trips to local farms and food production facilities;
* Working with non-profit and governmental agencies on food related legal issues;
* Holding a yearly conference on food policy;
* Creating an HLS CSA allowing members to buy local food at affordable prices; and
* Working with the Environmental Law Society on initiatives related to food and the environment, including an HLS food garden.
In order to gain approval as a new organization, groups need to provide the Dean of Students Office with evidence of intended involvement. If you would be interested in participating in this organization next year, please fill out the following survey:
If you have trouble viewing or submitting this form, you can fill it out online:
https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dFFjNi1vR0xHUHZqTUZCVU96UzFiQlE6MA
If you have questions or feedback, please include them in your survey or e-mail hls.foodsociety@gmail.com.
Thank you!

The Student Government executive board will be meeting with Vice Dean for Academic Programming Andy Kaufman and Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Catherine Claypoole in the next couple of weeks. These are the people that have the most direct influence and information on curriculum here at HLS, and we’d love to provide them with as much student feedback as possible! What kind of curriculum questions, concerns, or feedback do you have for us to share with them?
Feedback can be posted here on the blog or emailed to studentgov@law.harvard.edu. Thanks and we hope to hear from you!

I hope everyone is enjoying the nice weather! It is just in time for the Red Sox to be back in town.
Next week there will be a hot dog competition in the Café. It is the Fenway Frank vs. the New York (Yankee) Deli Dog. Both types of dogs will be for sale in the Café. Each day there will be a trivia question posted at the station. If you guess correctly, you will be entered into a raffle to win Red Sox tickets!
Please share this information with your group.
Have a great weekend!
