Yeah pretty sure they do that every year. Kind of a genius way to up their matriculation % tbh, even though I doubt anyone would ever admit to being influenced by something that small
Everyone loves to be wooed a little bit. I have a buddy who's choosing between HBS and staying at his current job. He's definitely being swayed on the margins by all of HBS's free schwag and nice little touches, like the email address.
Yeah, I have to say, when that email came in, at first I actually felt swayed by the fact that I had access to that email and how cool it felt, and then I immediately felt stupid for letting them play me like that.
Reminds me of the scene from The Social Network:

TYLER
People can see your bio and request to be

YOUR--

MARK
Yeah. How's this different from MySpace
or Friendster?

TYLER
How?

MARK
Yeah.

TYLER
Harvard-dot-E--D-U.

CAMERON
Harvard.edu. The most prestigious e-mail
address in the country.

TYLER
This site would be based on the idea that
girls want to meet guys who go to
Harvard. The difference between what
we're talking about and MySpace,

FRIENDSTER---

MARK
--is exclusivity,

For the folks who have recently had a JS1: has your interviewer mentioned when you can expect to hear back? I'm curious how/if they're managing expectations.

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.
