APALSA, established at the law school in 1976, is dedicated to the admission and retention of Asian/Pacific-American law students, particularly those who will go on to help the legally underserved Asian/Pacific-American community. Members work to foster awareness of Asian/Pacific-American legal and social issues within the law school and strive to build ongoing relationships with other groups and students interested in both law and justice. The Rutgers chapter also sponsors joint activities with other east coast APALSAs aimed at community education and the development of interest in legal careers among Asian and Pacific Americans.
