Lambda Law Society,
WCL's lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ) and ally student group, was founded in 1984 as a political, educational, and social organization. Lambda is dedicated to building awareness about LGBTQ legal issues, eliminating stereotypes about LGBTQ individuals, and fostering a supportive LGBTQ and ally community throughout the law school. Lambda is affiliated with the Washington, D.C., attorney organization, GAYLAW, and the National LGBT Bar Association. Lambda programs include speakers involved in current legal issues, films, panel discussions, community activism, and social events.
Membership in Lambda is open to all students, regardless of sexual orientation.

Sign Up to Lobby for Don't Ask, Don't Tell Repeal!

Lambda will be tabling in the lobby this week to protest the JAG recruiters' presence on campus because of their discriminatory Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy. The policy prohibits lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals from serving openly in the military.
We’ve also partnered with other DC law schools to organize a LOBBY DAY ON OCTOBER 15. We'll meet with our congressional representatives to ask them to repeal Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. We’d like to have as many WCL students participate as possible! Servicemembers Legal Defense Network will provide lobbying training for those who sign up. This lobbying experience will be a great public interest resume builder!
To ensure that we’re able to schedule you a meeting with your representative, YOU MUST SIGN UP BY SEPTEMBER 20. For more information, or to sign up, please email Anna Jagelewski at lambda@wcl.american.edu with your contact information, including your nine-digit zip code (zip code plus four), if you know it, or your permanent address.
