CULSCAST: The CULS Podcast

CULS, Faculty of Law, University of Cambridge

Welcome to CULSCAST 🎙️the new Podcast from the Cambridge University Law Society, one of the world’s oldest and largest student-run societies, founded in 1901. Our Publicity team 📢 is pleased to be debuting this new initiative, which aims to bring the Cambridge law community closer together. Our new ‘CULSCAST Conversations’ series and ‘CULS Speakers Select’ series provide exclusive discussion about law and legal careers for our members. ‘CULSCAST Conversations’ is our interview-style forum hosted by the CULS Publicity Team; ‘CULS Speakers Select’ has been made in collaboration with the CULS Speakers Department to make the most recent CULS talks by eminent speakers, leaders in their respective fields about issues crucial to the modern legal world, readily accessible to our membership. In the past, CULS have had the pleasure of hearing from such distinguished speakers as Justice of the Supreme Court, The Right Hon Lord Clarke of Stone-cum-Ebony; Master of the Rolls, Lord Neuberger of Abbotsbury; and former President of the International Court of Justice, Dame Rosalyn Higgins. Therefore, we have also made our archived collection of 2012-2023 CULS lectures and debates easily available through CULSCAST.
