Checking into this thread because I didn't realize how much I needed it until I read it. You all seem so intelligent and lovely and perfectly equipped to take on this law school world. Wishing everyone a great a cycle and endless Amy Poehler gifs.

It's not a gif but this is my favorite Leslie Knope scene! I've never identified more with a scene from a tv show.

we've all been there

Woah. It was moved! I didn't see that coming.

I sort of saw it coming. I didn't find its existence at all offensive (hey, law schools should totally have liberal and conservative student groups!), but from a mod perspective I can see why having political threads in this forum kind of detracts from the whole point. Also, I'm sure they don't want to see a proliferation of "0L [insert interest group here]" threads that are only tangentially related to admissions at best.

I feel bad that the General's thread got derailed as soon as it moved to the Lounge though.

Oh, I hadn't read the content beyond the first half page or so because I was in a meeting.

Also, jett, you're my Myers Briggs personality opposite!

Since the same group of ladies has been chatting for a bit, it's good to get some new blood. Curious to see how much (or how little) initiatives/programming at schools supporting women factors into some of your decisions.

Also curious to see if you have any general career goals you're aiming for! (BigLaw/BigFed/PI/SmallLaw/Gov't/Etc)

To be honest, I haven't looked too much into how much potential school support women, though I probably should! I'm aiming to get into PI law and have been gearing my decisions based on programs and opportunities for that.
