- Hosts speakers throughout the year who provide insight into cutting edge business law topics
- Plans social events that allow students, faculty, and practitioners to meet in an informal setting to become more familiar with each other
- Organizes employment workshops to help members better prepare for and manage employment-search efforts
Members of WBLS elect officers annually.
