Re: UF Law Class of 2019
I do not. I want to serve and this would be the best way for me to achieve that. I have a minor disability that might disqualify me, though.medtolaw wrote:I’ve been looking into it although I’m undecided. I would be 32 at time of commission.

Re: UF Law Class of 2019
Same here, I have no military experience but working at the VA has motivated me to serve. The application process looks very intense. As far as medical disqualifications, I remember reading that some can be waived for JAG so it's not make or break.Kat1021 wrote:I do not.

Re: UF Law Class of 2019
I have a friend who does JAG with the Airforce via the Florida Air National Guard. On his "weekends" and Annual Training he goes and serves as either defense or prosecution of airmen in trouble with the Airforce. He seems to enjoy it quite a bit. He's a regular Joe lawyer.medtolaw wrote:Same here, I have no military experience but working at the VA has motivated me to serve. The application process looks very intense.

Re: UF Law Class of 2019
I think there are quite a bit of social opportunities that will be put on by the school. I'm sure I'll hang out with you guys and drink some beerz every now and again.GatorToLS wrote:Uber-lurker coming out of the woodwork here.

. I don’t want to sound like a crazy party animal (I’m not), but what are people’s plans for meeting people/socializing in law school?

Sign me up for a few rounds!
I was at Tall Pauls over the weekend. I hear that's a common law school hangout. Great bar

Re: UF Law Class of 2019
Thanks for the tip! I went to UF for undergrad, but I don't really know anything about the bar scene (downside of a science major...). I missed the ASD TLS meetup, hopefully I'll make it to the next oneLeagles5161 wrote:Sign me up for a few rounds!

Re: UF Law Class of 2019
I'm thinking about attending the Gainesville event. I move to Gainesville in late June. If anyone else is moving insanely early, shoot me a PM and we can meet up sooner than later!

Re: UF Law Class of 2019
I was considering going to the one in Jax to get some exposure in that market, but I'll still be working at that time. The one in Gainesville in July, I'll be out of work and looking for something to do, so likely the one in Gainesville.

Re: UF Law Class of 2019
So now the real question, do you bring your spouse to these type events?

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

Now, have I, on occasion, made judicious use of the search tool? Perhaps.
