Elections for LSSO Executive positions will be taking place during this year’s Annual General Meeting. Candidates must be enrolled in an undergraduate law program (e.g., JD, JD/MBA, or other related programs) at an Ontario law school during the 2024-2025 school year.
The 4 positions for election are:
(1) President;
(2) Vice-President (Internal);
