We support all Berkeley Law students as they navigate law school.
Our office works to foster an environment that promotes wellness and inclusion among the student body. We work with the Student Association at Berkeley Law (SABL) and student organizations, supporting their social and community activities. We serve as the school’s liaison to the Disabled Students’ Program and facilitate disability-related classroom accommodations. We also administer exams. Please reach out with any questions about any of these areas. Our specific areas of expertise are noted below.
