2020 Student Leadership Conference

Student Division

July 24 — 26, 2020
The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island
4750 Amelia Island Parkway
Amelia Island, FL 32034

We are excited to announce that we are holding our annual Student Leadership Conference (SLC) in Amelia Island, FL on Friday, July 24th through Sunday, July 26th, 2020.

What is the SLC? This meeting will bring together our Chapter Presidents from around the country and give us the opportunity to plan, share valuable ideas, and discuss strategies to make next year our most successful ever.

The National Office and the Ritz-Carlton are working together to maintain a sanitary environment, follow social distancing guidelines, and provide masks for you to wear throughout the conference. For more information, visit Marriott's Commitment to Clean website or download their detailed plan. We will continue to monitor the situation and notify you immediately with any changes. If travel doesn’t strike you as particularly appealing late this summer, we completely understand and will be able to get you the training materials and connect about best practices later this summer over the phone or Zoom.

The National Office will reimburse your travel (flight, train or mileage/toll expenses should you opt to drive) after the conference. We will bill to our master account a private Ritz-Carlton hotel room for each newly elected Chapter President (or one substitute officer in lieu of the President, if the Chapter President cannot attend, attended last year, is thinking of transferring, or will study off campus for a semester) from each school.

Who can attend the SLC? Only one officer from each school may attend (in the case of Co-Presidents, your Co-Presidents will have to flip a coin). Please note that if you are thinking of transferring law schools next semester, yet you still plan on attending the conference, you must inform us of this before you register. We cannot reimburse international flights. If you will be studying or working overseas this summer, please send another officer in your place.

 

ATTN: Schools that are not returning to campus in the Fall, such as the University of California schools—you are still welcome to attend the conference. We will have a special section on how to host virtual events and we’d still like to have you there.
