The 3L event is an honorary ceremony held in late April or early May for the Kemet Chapter’s graduating third year students.  Having its origins in the 3L event started by all of NUSL’s affinity groups in the late 80s, the Kemet Chapter’s 3L event was launched by then Dean and now Professor David Hall in the early 1990s.  The tradition has since been passed along with each composition of the Kemet Chapter.  The 3L event has become a staple in BLSA’s traditions. Each year, the graduating 3Ls are presented with authentic Kente Cloth stoles to be worn during NUSL’s Commencement Ceremony, Certificates of Achievement and gifts from the organization in recognition of their accomplishment of a remarkable milestone: graduating from the School of Law.
