Anyone here going to the UT ASW? I'm flying in tomorrow evening, so I'm missing the segway tours.

I actually cancelled the segway tour. I have a reputation to maintain :lol:

Oh, and check the c/o 2017 applicants thread for Texas. They're talking about the Bar Review on Thursday night. They said accepted 0Ls are welcome.

In at UCI! I'm really happy with their diversity and warm atmosphere. I'm leaning more toward public interest and I want to go for a clerkship, which are befitting goals at this school. Any other URM's planning on going to their ASW?

Also in as of this morning - my first acceptance.

I will try to make it to the ASW, but it depends on my job. Congrats on the acceptance!

Random thought:

Why do white people automatically assume A large number of blacks in a nightclub = Ghetto = Dangerous?

And this is coming from a white guy who likes black girls..."Oh that place went down hill, its really dangerous now." Have you ever been there? "No, but from what I hear, its very dangerous."

So black = dangerous?

And congrats to the new admits.

Of course black doesn't equal dangerous but it's a part of people's biases. Those Harvard psychology online tests that have been around years demonstrate the hidden biases we all have. By the way there are black people that unconsciously think the same thing.
