What SCLS Stands For

Critical Legal Studies (CLS) movement of the U.S. marked the combination of a legal way of thought (theory, we call it) and a social network of progressive legal scholars of 1970s. From a theoretical point of view, it was a reaction to the inherent conservatism of common law system built on precedents. Critical legal thinkers vigorously questioned the subtle partiality of the apparently impartial and rigid legal doctrines. Critical legal studies question the hidden interests and class domination behind the institutions and politics of laws. Critical thinkers analyzed the historical, social, economic and psychological results of laws and legal institutions….Read More

Midst of thousands unfavorable situation, SCLS, I think, has appeared as an avatar to shoulder the responsibility of making country’s next pioneers. Law is indeed a boring and tiresome subject to study I think, but SCLS has changed the idea dramatically, I have seen all the members’ enthusiasm for studying and grasping the essence of law. We know that if any subject is studied with fun the essence will be petrified strongly in learners mind. I have come to this decision after reading some write ups of SCLS’s volunteer. I clearly see the days when they will dominate over every legal arena of home and abroad. Wishing them from the core of my heart.

SCLS tries hard to make law students aware of different realistic situations and trains them to prepare for them by organizing programs that doesn’t contradict with classroom studies but rather works as a tool for enhancing the skills that a law students acquires from their studies. SCLS’ service towards the law students will bear great fruits as these law students equipped with knowledge gained from SCLS programs along with their academic studies will contribute to the legal arena, which will help the society in large.

Additionally, events like Profiling Practice Areas and Succeeding in trotting many spheres of law through a different outlook that is consistent with this 21st century surely makes it a unique study circle that is striving for the betterment of law students of our country.

It is apparent that society and its other machinery need law student badly. SCLS, seeing them from the very beginning, is making the CUlaw students a torch bearer of future society, free from every cons. They have co-curricular activities which is nowadays integral part of our education system, despite having plenty of dwarfs I wonder how the students and the mentors are going forward. Hope they will bring out the noblest individual, willing to serve the society and country. I wish their success and glory.
