The Human Rights Law Society (HRLS) provides a forum to broaden the study and awareness of human rights issues at The University of Chicago Law School. HRLS hosts lunch talks, film screenings, and career events to expose students to human rights issues and careers. We invite professors, practitioners, and advocates to speak about a variety of human rights issues on campus. All are welcome to join.
