We are back! After a (short but) very much needed summer break, our Board of Officers is ready to make the most out of this 2024-25 academic year. September so far has, as a matter of fact, already proved to be an exciting start, with our fantastic officers representing the Law Society in both the #Madrid and #Segovia undergraduate campuses' Club Fairs. Thanks to the kick-off Drinks & Tapas events we hosted in both cities, we met our newest members in an informal setting, where they could network, enjoy delicious Spanish food and get to know us more personally. During the next few weeks, newly recruited officers will be joining this ever-growing, magical team, and we will be having both recreational and professional events, so stay tuned! It has definitely been quite the start, for a semester that we are excited to see unfold as we prepare thrilling, insightful events that we hope spark your juridical curiosity and bring us closer as a Society!
