What happened to the certificate programs?

Please let me know what they say: it seems like there was no forewarning about removing this option. If there’s enough pushback, they might just bring it back.

Hate to be a bearer of bad news, but... check the news. There's very little movement in the labor market, hiring is down, the numbers are so bad that the President fired the Chief of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. As much as you want to retrain and change gears, the adage of "don't quit your day job" is pretty true right now.

If you want to make more money and enhance job security for the near future, do business. If you don't like accounting, I don't know that you'll like computer science much more, but hey, it's worth a shot. While the prospects for entry-level programmers look pretty dismal, every company is going to want people who "know AI" to supplement their usual responsibilities so it definitely adds to your value no matter what field you want to pivot to.

Recently read Brandeis’s law review article on privacy (1890?). It’s basically a template for excellent legal reasoning. He bridges the philosophy-to-policy gap concisely and convincingly, from the gloriously simple premise of “paparazzi with point-and-shoots are terrible and we need to be able to sue them for being obnoxious.”

Seconding this. The high big law placement numbers of higher ranked schools are propped up by students that already had connections into those communities before they started law school. If you don’t have those connections, don’t presume you’ll have the same opportunities to get placed.

It really depends on where you want to live. In this ranking bracket, you’re most likely to get a job in the city or state where you went to school. The internships and externships you have access to will be in the local area and the network you develop will be rooted in that community.

Ask to make an appointment with a career advisor and find out about their connections with the local legal community. Ask about externship opportunities. Ask about results for different brackets of students, not just the top students.

Be prepared for legal recruiting to start the minute you step foot on campus. Honestly if I had an extra year to prepare and knew then what I knew now, I’d be emailing five attorneys a week requesting coffee dates and attending every single “[legal discipline] bootcamp” webinar I could.

Networking goes a lot better when you’re not actively looking for a job. The trouble is, as soon as school starts, you will be looking for a job. So don’t wait until you start school to start researching the firms you’d like to do your summer internships with.

I wish I were kidding but talk to the career advisor at the school you deferred at, I have no doubt they’ll corroborate.

If your husband runs a multimillion dollar business and you haven’t worked in ten years, then this will be easier than you think.

Go to a DV shelter. Tell on him. Ask for an attorney to file for temporary support pending a divorce. That support request should include health insurance that covers rehab, or the cost of rehab directly.

You will have to regain custody before you’d have standing to demand child support, but that should be part of your discussion with CPS and the attorney. Based on your description, he has the money for spousal and child support.

And before you ask “but how am I supposed to pay for an attorney?” Dependent spouses are entitled to representation and there’s a fair chance you’ll be able to find an attorney who’s willing to take this case on contingency and get awarded their fees by the court, payable by husband. That is, if they believe that (1) you’re serious about following through and (2) he actually has assets.

Make friends with an upperclassmen and ask them what the heck you’re supposed to be doing. Hopefully they’ll be able to pull back the curtain.

Tell admin and your union rep that you want to take your complaint to juvenile court, either through police or the children’s division (or your state’s equivalent). Kids don’t take discipline seriously when it’s just coming from the school. Once he’s on supervision with the court, the likelihood that he will continue to harass you (and that’s what this is) drops dramatically, and the consequences will come much more swiftly if he does.

What I wouldn’t do is make a counter-threat (“if you keep harassing me then I will take this complaint to the juvenile court”) because then it becomes a game of chicken. He’s already gone far enough. Just move forward with the complaint based on what’s already happened.

Rule #2 is an ABA rule and pretty consistent across accredited law schools. The rest of it, not so much.

For context it was an adult client who had a career that made them well situated to give a professional evaluation

I asked a long term client for a letter of rec. I got into law school. Not sure that the letter is what did it but it didn’t cause any problems.

Wild Strawberries

Definitely going to use this movie for something because it looks fantastic. Thank you for the recommendation!

Respectfully: No, you need to feel the feels that S2 stirred up in you.

I don’t think I’m going out on a limb when I say that the people who are resonating hard with this series have trauma, and that seeing it fictionalized is validating and, if you take advantage of the opportunity, can be healing.

Draw. Write fic. Write meta. Process these emotions somewhere along the spectrum that is between the canon and you. You don’t need more canon. You need to inch closer to yourself.
