Members of the Christian Law Students Association, Jewish Law Students Association, and the Muslim Law Students Association at the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University came together on February 24, 2025, to break bread and build bridges at an Interfaith Luncheon held on campus. The event, organized by Professor Leslie Garfield Tenzer through a grant from the Academic Engagement Network, was a testament to the law school's commitment to diversity and inclusivity, creating a space where students could engage in meaningful conversations about their shared values and distinct traditions.



“The Interfaith Luncheon was a unique opportunity for students of different faiths to connect, fostering a spirit of unity and mutual respect,” said Professor Tenzer, who is the faculty advisor to JLSA, and sparked the idea for the collaborative event. “It was truly special seeing students, faculty, staff, and religious leaders from all walks of life find common ground in a social setting free from stigma. It’s this kind of openness and community spirit that makes Haub Law the unique place it is.” READ MORE >
