A Brief Introduction

[The_Voice]

Hello all,

I would like to introduce myself to all of you, as per the suggestion upon my registration to this Forum. I am, "The Voice" which I felt was a nice moniker for myself as I intend to speak my views upon these threads. Will my views line up and fit nicely with others? Well, I hope in some cases, that I do and in others not. Yet, I will make the promise now, to never personally attack any individual for their views. Will I attack your views? Possibly, and I implore you to do the same to my own views. As that is what good discussion is made up of. Yet I will, and I hope you will as well, make the distinction between "The Individual" and "The View".

That is what I am here for, to discuss a variety of topics that encompass the entire forum. I also hope to create connections within the political sphere that encompasses this Forum, and to develop those connections into whatever they could become.

Within the coming weeks, and months as I graduate from school I hope to become more active on these boards and to become involved within the community.

Thank you all in advance for the time you'll spend welcoming a new soul into your community. I hope this will become a beneficial relationship for all of us.

Ah the difference between Insanity and Genius is a matter of perspective....or you know....health laws and the norms society has created. Regardless I hope to have much fun here.

A brief introduction?

A. You are an attorney

B. You are typing this in your underwear

Either way, Welcome (if it is B, close your damn drapes!)

Welcome to USMB, The Voice. Hope you enjoy the boards this term.

A. You are an attorney

My professors seem to think that is the route I should take in continuing my education, but unless someone wants to foot the Law School bill....I think I will stay in the Private Sector of Business for now.

Get a recommendation in writing from those professors, The Voice. Take it with you to the registrar and request whether there is an unclaimed scholarship available. That happens now and then, you know. The school only gets the funds if there's a warm body in class using the tuition up on knowledge. Those written endorsements have paved a path for many an errant student who took a semester off or changed their mind after graduation. Something happens to set a person's soul on fire often when they've been in the real world and see how it is and how much better it would be with a law school credential hanging on the wall of their office.

Yup. Welcome.

That is some very good advice, I'll have to keep that in mind as the semester winds down. I have a few opportunities ahead of me as graduation nears, and Law School could be one of them and I'll be sure to keep that advice of yours with that opportunity.

It's April. By May professors can be in a dither to finish up the semester to get going on vacation of summer jobs. Get the recommendations asap. I hear the job market sucks for grads right now, too. I'd give anything if it were different. Letters of recommendation from trusted professors can win when the competitive field seems even. Go for the gusto!!!
And, only good wishes.

EGO ero paratus ut lucror.

Welcome...and smart choice. The job prospects for newly minted lawyers are pretty dismal, unless one goes to one of the elite univerisities.
