Should I shave my mustache before law school starts??

Post by jayman12 » Mon Apr 08, 2013 3:43 pm

So in my year off between undergrad and law school (this fall) I have grown a pretty long mustache, mostly for fun and laughs. But the truth is I really have grown to like the mustache and can even twirl the ends of it to look like and old-school boxer. Do you think I should get rid of the mustache before law school starts? Would you lend your notes/sit next to a kid with a long mustache? I'm still pretty young whereas the stache is generally more funny than creepy, but I don't wanna ruin my law school experience by being the kid with a long and weird mustache. Advice, thoughts, experiences????

It's a mix of funny and gross, with very little "professional" thrown in.

I refuse to vote in such a nonsensical thread.

ETA 0Ls need to relax.

Seems like the crowd wants the stache to stay. At the very least It'll make an average white dude like me stand out a bit, and will be a great converation starter at OCI.
