Attend a GBA Meeting

If you are a student member of the Greensboro Bar Association (GBA), you may attend one GBA meeting for free. GBA meetings are held once per month and alternate between lunch and dinner meetings.

Attending a GBA meeting is a wonderful opportunity to network with our legal community.

The first meeting is coming up on Thursday, September 17 during lunch. Please sign up for that meeting using the link below no later than 4:00 p.m. on Monday (9/14) if you would like to attend Thursday’s meeting.

FOR LUNCH MEETINGS: Please note they usually last until 2:00. If you are unable to attend due to class conflict, please do not sign up for a lunch meeting.

Using the link below, you may sign up for any of the 2015-2016 meetings, but you may only sign up for one meeting.

The first five students to sign up for each meeting will be able to attend. The GBA pays for each person who has RSVP’d, so please let me know ASAP if you are unable to attend after you have signed up.
