Not sure the OP will respond, as he's been asking to get the thread deleted (which we don't do). OP, it might have made sense to lurk a little and get a sense of TLS before posting. It's a tough audience.

Kevin, I'm coming to town for a visit soon. Any recommendations for food and fun in the area? A big part of my decision will be based on how much fun I have on this visit.
TIA

Kevin, I'll be disappointed if I don't get my questions answered. You said you were taking questions.

Re: Recent Ave Maria Law Graduate Taking Questions
Why I am not surprised? I don't feel bad for Kevin, he can't even respond to our basic questions with data. Dear Kevin, we miss you. Maybe you shouldn't try to promote one of the worst legal scams in the US.A. Nony Mouse wrote:Not sure the OP will respond, as he's been asking to get the thread deleted (which we don't do).

Re: Recent Ave Maria Law Graduate Taking Questions
Tough crowd.
Clearly I was not prepared. This isn't admissions. I'm a recent grad just trying to help anyone with genuine questions and linked a recent youtube video I created to do some of the same. I enjoyed my time at Ave and felt I got a great education. To those that don't feel the same, well thats your opinion.
Best of Luck,
Kevin

Re: Recent Ave Maria Law Graduate Taking Questions
Kevin, could you please explain why you feel like you got a great education when only 1 out of 3 law students get a legal job? That isn't an opinion, thats the actual data your school actively tries to hide. I am truly interested in your explanation.TheKevinChronicles wrote:Tough crowd.

is the quality of an education determined subjectively?

Re: Recent Ave Maria Law Graduate Taking Questions
I understand the data may explain otherwise in recent years. I was just going off my personal experience. Ave has changed substantially over recent years with a revised curriculum and a new bar prep instructor. I felt I was well prepared for the bar exam, I had numerous internships where supervisors were pleased, and have a great job waiting for me after I pass the bar. I don't know what else I could really want?grades?? wrote:Kevin, could you please explain why you feel like you got a great education when only 1 out of 3 law students get a legal job?

Re: Recent Ave Maria Law Graduate Taking Questions
So you didn't care that your classmates are not going to ever work as lawyers? That your law school actively hides data to incoming students? That isn't something you would want? I still smell admissions here. I thought if you attending a very religious law school, you would care deeply about your fellow classmates.TheKevinChronicles wrote:I understand the data may explain otherwise in recent years.

Re: Recent Ave Maria Law Graduate Taking Questions
Can you answer my earlier questions since you're back, please?
Also, are you saying your experience is more indicative of the state of Ave Maria than actual hard statistics?

Re: Recent Ave Maria Law Graduate Taking Questions
OP I'd like to take you up on your offer in your first post to "make a video on anything"
I'd like one where a boy takes in a stray dog and they have adventures together in his wooded backyard until some homeless people set up camp there because the city council enacted anti-vagrancy ordinances which forced them out into more rural areas. They never threaten the boy and we start to humanize with their plight. It turns out the mill closed down and there's just no work, and at this point the group has banded together to try and just basically subsist - there's not even the hope of restabilizing their lives and attaining even the basic working class life of having a steady job, place to live, etc. The boy's dog disappears one day and you never really get closure on that part but he suspects they caught and ate the dog, which is ludicrous but it gets him to finally tell his parents about the squatters. The boy's parents get the cops to turn out the itinerant campers but the whole experience kinda lives with him and we see his development fork here along two timelines. In one he recognizes their plight and the underlying socioeconomic forces at play and works to better provide community support, education programs, and access to affordable housing. In the other timeline his negative experience with these squatters reinforces stereotypes instilled by his upper middle class white parents and he becomes a politician to bitterly oppose l social welfare programs because he believes inherently laziness or bad moral character drives people into homelessness. There's a transdimensional switcheroo where each learns a little something about how life could have gone but the twist is that the social worker version learns how bitchin' business and political life is over social work near-poverty and he decides politics is where it's at. That man's name: Ronald Reagan.
Maybe the dog is a talking dog but I'll let you have creative license here.

A little context to help you better answer my question- I enjoy karaoke, dancing, trivia and sports bars. I don't drink and I'm vegan. What do you have for me?

Okay, people, I get that the OP isn't going to be well received but this is still technically the on-topics.
