Draft:Nicholas Bacon Law Society

The Nicholas Bacon Law Society (NBLS) is the law society of Corpus Christi College, University of Cambridge. The law society is named after Elizabethan Lord Keeper of the Great Seal, and former member of the college, Sir Nicholas Bacon.[1]

Sir Nicholas Bacon Lord Keeper of the Great Seal in the court of Elizabeth I, attended Corpus Christi College in 1524.

The society was founded in 1972 to serve as a link between the college and alumni, and to give current students at the college greater access to opportunities in the legal industry.[2] Students at the college, aided by the activities of the law society, regularly partake in mooting competitions, including the annual Varsity moot between Corpus Christi College, Cambridge and their sister college, Corpus Christi College, Oxford. The competition takes place alongside the other events of the 'Corpus Challenge', a day of competition between the two colleges.[3]
