The Graduate Student Legal Aid Office (GLAO) is a part-time program of the Graduate Student Government and operates under the auspices of the Office of Student Affairs.  We are funded solely by graduate student fees and have been in operation since 1987. 

The Graduate Student Legal Aid Office provides free legal information and related assistance to individual graduate students on a wide range of both off-campus and university matters.  We also maintain active educational and outreach programs for the graduate student community, and are available to provide speakers for student events and other campus activities.

The office is staffed by an experienced attorney and paralegal.  While we are a small two person office funded on a part-time basis, we strive to be as accessible as possible to the graduate student community.  Our attorney cannot represent students in court.
