Our students serve as officers and members of the Mitchell Hamline Native American Law Student Association (NALSA) chapter, participate in the National Native American Law Student Association (NNALSA) and frequently serve on that organization’s board, and compete in the NNALSA Moot Court Competition. Mitchell Hamline students have won best team, best brief, and best oralist in the national competition.
The MH NALSA chapter on an annual basis offers presentations for Indigenous Peoples Day, during Native American Heritage Month in November, and collaborates with other student organizations on events highlighting common issues and areas of legal interest.
