Veteran Advocacy Club at the Louisiana State University Law Center

In honor of Veterans Day please visit Chick-fil-a on Burbank between 4-10 and say you’re with LSU Law. Proceeds will benefit the Wounded Warrior Project.

With our heartfelt thanks, we recognize the LSU Law Veteran Advocacy Executive Board of 2020. These individuals navigated a year with obstacles as COVID-19 threw new challenges to overcome for how to host events throughout the year in accordance with our mission of advocating for veterans. Today, they executed their last planned event, a presentation with Louisiana Judge Childress on Veteran Treatment Courts. Thank you to all six of these hardworking students for the time they have given this club in the past year. We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors, and we can’t wait to see what all you will do! We’re excited to see where Rob and Jolonda take us this next year as they continue on in leading this club! 🇺🇸⚖️

Our members are attending Student Veterans of America’s National Convention today and tomorrow! Although it is virtual, we’re excited to interact with everyone and learn more about ways to advocate with and for Veterans!

It may be icy 🥶 outside, but we have some news to bring a little joy! Congratulations to the new VAC executive board!

Two spots are still available (2L Representative and Secretary)! If interested, email one of the new executive members above!

Join us next Monday for a presentation by Judge Childress on Veteran Treatment Courts! The Zoom link will be in the SBA Blast.

Check out the SBA Blast today for the link for new executive board nominations!

Wishing everyone a safe and healthy holiday!

Wishing Everyone A Happy And Safe Thanksgiving! 🦃 🍽 🍁

In addition to our student veteran spotlights, we invited faculty at LSU Law to spotlight family members, friends, or colleagues who have served in the military. Professor Goring participated by spotlighting her father and sister. Take a minute to read about their service to our country. VAC thanks the Gorings for their service to our country, and VAC thanks Professor Goring for participating in our celebration of Veteran’s Day this week. 🇺🇸

While COVID-19 has halted many of our events and plans for this year, we are delighted to show our appreciation and gratitude to all veterans by presenting this new American flag to the LSU Law Center on Veteran’s Day. 🇺🇸♥️🤍💙🇺🇸

We take today to say thank you to all veterans from every branch of the military. Thank you to the U.S. Army Soldiers. Thank you to the U.S. Air Force Airmen. Thank you to the U.S. Navy Sailors. Thank you to the U.S. Marines. Thank you to the U.S. Coast Guard. 🇺🇸
