Hopefully they stop lurking and come hang out with us! Do you know what facet of PI you want to go into?

The dream world is to be a prosecutor, so we shall see.
Ooh I think I want to be a PD for a stint, maybe we'll be archnemeses.
I'm all in it for the prosecutorial discretion, yo.

180. I love a good prosecutor who wields his/her unfettered power responsibly.

I'm really curious about the game plan for the future pols among us... any people who answered that way in the poll want to chime in? Are you guys thinking state legislators or is anyone here actually expecting to be a beltway bigshot?

I'm naively hoping for an article 3 seat/becoming the next William H. Taft.

Good god they are depressing. I can't imagine it is all soul crushing, or noone would do it.

Either that or we know the price of a lawyer's soul.

It's a little known fact that most senators got their start on TLS

Ah, yes, that explains a lot...

Favorite letter in the name "Columbia"???

Joking aside, you could do "How much money would you be willing to pay per year to attend CLS?"

I think CLS needs a lot more love than it's getting! New poll new poll, please.

In order to pick up the General's slack, please enjoy my well thought out and elegantly written Why Columbia Essay. DO NOT COPY MY HARD WORK

I would like to go to Columbia Law School because it is the highest ranked school I can reasonably get in to. It is also an Ivy League school, so my friends and family would be very impressed if I go there. Columbia is in New York, and so is the waffle food truck, so that helps too. Plus it has cool clinics and job prospects and everything, but mostly I want to impress everyone I know. Please admit me.

Love,
Barley
