Basically title. There is inherently precedent privilege and inherent disadvantage when we are born. Law schools fail to recognise this disparity, because everyone is treated as equals when they are not equal. Thus how can privileged students support non-privileged ones? Can it be done by forming student clubs and societies, having sensitivity training, practising affirmative action in university mooting/sports/debate teams etc?

I suspect this is trollbate, and there would probably be arguments against feeding it, but... okay. Conversations on how to make our society a more equitable place and how to level the playing-field aren't relevant to law, lawyers, lawyering, law schools or law students. How wonderful! Law can, after all, remain the preserve of the elites in India, thanks to disingenuous nonsense like this. At the same time, many of these same elites will go to England and the U.S., and with not a thought about their hypocrisy, join the ineffective liberal do-gooders in those environments in giving big lectures to everyone in the world about greater diversity, whenever a law firm recruiter or pupillage committee member in a barrister's chambers doesn't think they (these Indian "elites", with their NLU tags) are not "good enough" compared to white, male, able-bodied, heterosexual, non-working class, independent-school educated (Eton/Harrow/Stowe) Oxbridge/RG/Ivy graduates. I shouldn't tell you where to shove this opinion about the relevancy of this topic, or the mods will really not publish this (putting myself in their shoes, I'd say some doubts are already kicking in...).

It all lies in your ability to be a patient listener, being aware of your privilege, being self reflective of your actions, being comfortable in following the lead of the other et al.

The above is a short primer. You can give Pedagogy of the Oppressed a read for greater depth.

I don't consider myself an "ally" or anything, but I think of myself as having been a helpful batchmate or senior. The "upper caste, heterosexual, cisgender male students", like any other part of humanity do not owe anyone anything by merely being "upper caste, heterosexual, cisgender male students". What you are asking the so-called "upper caste, heterosexual, cisgender male students" to do, is just be good batchmates, not allies; as this is in a law school context and not society at large. Try not to let what you "identify" as become your entire identity or personality. The mere fact that you had to write "upper" caste signifies that there exists a "lower" caste and I don't want to label anyone as being beneath anyone else by virtue of birth.

In my opinion, any attempt to systematize or officially organize a system for "non-privileged" students will only fail, as strong-arming change by attempting for equality of outcomes seldom works with the government, and would be even worse in a smaller closed setting like a law school, where everyone knows each other.

What I think that anyone claiming to be "non-privileged" needs is an excellent grasp or command of the English Language. The ability to read extensively and comprehend material, the ability to write and draft cohesively, and the ability to speak in English without feeling the need to translate from their mother tongue simultaneously. If you can crack that, you can crack most of the academics and co-curriculars at law school. Even translating what is being said in certain lectures would also help out a lot.

If you want to help someone, help them. Regardless of whether they are "non-privileged" or "privileged". If your batchmate is struggling with the above-mentioned reading, writing, and speaking skills, help them out. Help them understand legal comprehension, help them identify what makes good drafting, and help them with speaking coherently. It can be something overt like literally teaching them how to do this, or something covert like saying yes to proofreading their draft CVs, emails, projects, speeches, etc. Thinking about your batchmate or junior when you come across an opportunity that might benefit them, and sharing the same with them would also help. Help your broke friend attend their moot or something by loaning them some travel money if you can or if you are broke yourself, refer them to potential sponsors.

There is no need to go out of your way to offer help to people who don't ask for it in my opinion. All of you have to do, is just make sure you seem approachable to them. Foster a relationship with your batchmates and juniors that makes them feel at least kind of secure and comfortable so that they don't get anxious to talk to you or ask for help.

In short, no need for any organized effort to help any particular class of people. Help those who need help and ask for help. Make sure you create an environment where anyone can ask you for help. That's all. Make sure you help if you care and don't fret about making others help. All of these things are basic human values or manners, but I write them down here as one tends to get lost in terms of personal values and integrity in law school. Stop seeing the world through the lens of "upper caste, heterosexual, cisgender, male, women, LGBTQ+ persons, Dalits, tribals, Muslims, etc." and start seeing it as those who need help and will ask for it and those who can help and will provide for it, out of their own volition. Trust me, if you wanna stand out amongst the law school crowd, just be a genuinely good person, and you'll be miles ahead, lol :)
