MORSL staff would like to express a huge thank you to all the clubs and representatives who participated, including Power to Change, the Newman Catholic Student Society, The 看片视频 Chavurah, Muslim Law Students Association, Falun Dafa, Hillel 看片视频, Intervarsity Christian Fellowship, Black Muslim Association, and the 看片视频 Sikh Students Association.
