Question Presented: 

It is permissible for a lawyer to be retained by a non-profit student senate organization to provide legal services to the senate and also to provide group legal services to the student members of the senate under currently existing constitutional interpretations, but only if: (a) the rendition of group legal service is not a primary purpose of the senate and is incidental to its primary purposes, and (b) the senate derives no financial benefit from the group legal services, and (c) the individual student member, and not the senate, is recognized as the lawyer's client in each individual matter.
