Exploring equity - how does it help?
Manage episode 337244498 series 3380407
In the wake of commencing a second semester amid the continued lockdown, students may be left wondering where to turn if faced by the simple, yet challenging question - can I afford this? In situations such as these, equity - the premise that students are entitled to study, and experience law school without barriers - matters deeply. This episode, we take a look at SULS' own Equity Committee, the categories of claims it deals with, the schemes it has in place to help students in need, and its aspirations for the future. Footnotes is a podcast created by the Sydney University Law Society; for students, by students, and available wherever you get your podcasts.
Information surrounding the Textbook Loans Scheme and the Financial Grants Scheme may be found on the SULS website: https://www.suls.org.au/equity-schemes. If there are any questions concerning matters relevant to the Equity Portfolio, please email Eden at equity@suls.org.au.
