Our Mission

The Fieldsport and Angling Society seeks the growth of sporting traditions and to encourage positive attitudes towards such traditions within the law school and in society as a whole. We seek to maintain an approachable atmosphere that encourages interested students to learn with us about these safe and enjoyable outdoor pastimes. We encourage the responsible use and protection of watersheds, forests, and farmlands. We enjoy and embrace our role as a steward of and active participant in the natural world. We recognize the equal dangers posed to sporting traditions by irresponsible practitioners and also by misinformed opponents of our traditions. As such, our primary goal is education through responsible model behavior and dedication to the ideals of sportsmanship, safety, fair chase, respect for private property, conservation and transmission of tradition.

Interested in Getting Out?

We get together semi-regularly to shoot sporting clays at Quail Ridge. If you are interested in getting together for a round, drop us a line. We'll add you to the email list that goes around.

Additionally, we have several members who are avid anglers who would be happy to get a line wet.

Activities Fair and Budget

The 1L Activities Fair this Friday was a success, despite the total lack of table swag. Our mailing list has grown to 29 people, including folks who have been shooting and fishing their whole lives and folks who've never fired a gun or wet a line. We're all looking forward to an active and enjoyable year.

Earlier in the week, several of the officers met with the SBA regarding our budget for the upcoming year. As a new club, we are likely to receive a flat budget of $500, along with another $100 for lively beverages. I'll post here when it becomes official. It's not much, but I think we can achieve some of our activities goals and show that we are worthy of a larger budget in years to come.
