What does the future of law look like? Windsor Law students and legal professionals from across Canada will explore that question at the 19th annual Canadian Law Student Conference on March 5 and 6.

This year, Windsor Law’s student-run organization, Windsor Review of Legal and Social Issues (WRLSI), is infusing new energy into the landmark event, aiming to reestablish it as a nationally recognized conference.
