"Promoting Yourself in Law School" Forum

[chitown825]

Had to share this funny article. Basically, the key to succeeding in your career is by gunning, which impresses your classmates and makes them love you.

Each law school is a multi-state power base, and a positive perception from the student's community can catapult your future work-life, whether as a lawyer or a politician, to heights you had never dreamed reachable.

Conversely, if you fail to project your image properly and are not held in high esteem by other students, it can have negative consequences on your future life. That said; let's find out the ideal image you can cultivate and how to do it.

A good student, above all else

Without going into a detailed comparison of all the roles, let's say that in a community of learning, the logically respected position is that of a leader who leads from the front by dint of recognized subject expertise. This is the ideal role you can play, for it has the least weaknesses in a student's community, and it's a role, where maximum options of future role-switching remain without sacrificing initial advantages and resources.

Be the Leader

Co-operate, don't compete. If you truly want to establish yourself as a leader, co-operate with others and don't compete. Academic competition is obvious in any school, but it should never gain personal or political dimensions. Always be helpful and cooperative to those who hold you as their competitor, and be ready to help them out at the first chance. Always try to garner positive relationships without excessive attachment. In any person's life, only best friends have the chance to become worst enemies, and enemies often become best friends. To be a true leader you need others to view you as a source of positive direction and guidance. To achieve this you need to prove your academic expertise.

If other students respect your academic expertise they will presume that you have the power to help them out. If other students trust your judgment, they will trust you as a counsel to guide their work and efforts. If other students view you as an expert, they are more likely to consider your opinion on other matters seriously.

How to Be the Leader

-Become good in studies
-Promote an image as an academic expert
-Maintain credibility and protect your image
-Never expose lack of confidence in public
-Be informed and updated on subject matter and matters of common interest
-Never threaten the self-esteem of weaker students
-Be humble, not timid
-Be helpful to those who ask

If you maintain yourself well, your chances of gaining appellate briefs and consultations can increase dramatically, and provide you those first opportunities that are so hard to come by.
Classmates from the district courts can provide your first appellate briefs. Though they can be specific, as to which attorneys should be on the case, they can and will trust you enough to believe that you would do the right thing. That trust would not come, at least in the matter of his or her own briefs, if you were only the best football player or the matinee idol at law school.

Um, this article seems to say you shouldn't gun, but be smart and a leader.

Aside from the obvious RC fail, isn't it possible that maybe the OP interpreted the steps in this article as gunner advice and failed to mention his interpretation to us?

So, it appears that we have a RC fail along with leaving out an important analysis.

If you set out to be the "leader" in law school, you are a fail. If you focus on your grades, are nice to people, then maybe you will be a 'leader' but trying to intentionally get there is a road to douchedom.

Ding ding ding. The article basically advises you to be opportunistic and fake.

[chitown825]

I thought the article spoke for itself and I didn't have to explain its nuances to the class.

Yes there are contradictory phrases in there, but the moral is to constantly try to show how much you know.

No it isn't. The moral is don't be a douche and you won't be remembered as a douche by your classmates.

Wow, Rammstein is really cool.

Unfortunately, you can't count on Res Ipsa Loquitur to work on things that do not involve negligence, but I may be wrong.
