Graduating Affinity Group Leaders - May 2026

UCLA Law’s affinity groups are special student organizations that bring together members of the student body around shared identities, communities, and lived experiences. We are grateful to these members of the Class of 2026 for their significant service to the UCLA Law community as presidents, chairs, co-presidents, and co-chairs of student affinity groups. In these leadership roles, they demonstrated a deep commitment to the mentoring, care, success, and wellbeing of their peers.
