2L Summer Associate Holiday Gifts?

Post by Anonymous User » Fri Nov 08, 2019 9:59 am

Now that the dust has settled on OCI for some 2L's, thought I'd pose a fun question here. Best 2L Firm gifts or outreach that you've received for the holidays this year or in past years?

Same this year (an e-mail was sent out requesting sizing information a couple weeks back) except we can choose quarter-zip or full zip.

Last year, Latham did Patagonia jackets. I think they're doing the same thing again this year. All of the 2Ls and 3Ls (former SAs) at my school got a survey for their jacket size a couple weeks ago.

Nice of them to provide something that will provide comfort to their former offerees while panhandling on 7th Ave

IIRC, V&E did branded fleeces last year and BB did blankets. Probably flipped this year.

Funny how some things never change. I was a summer at V&E in 2008 and 2009. Fleeces one year, blankets the other.

Please give the blankets you don't need to the homeless outside. It's getting cold.

Unless it differs by office, BB did Swell water bottles and raincoats last year.
