Conversion of Interests

Right, I've stayed up late enough tonight trying to deal with the Early Interview Process, in which newly-minted 2Ls try to select an employer who will select them as a fledgling attorney. I'll write about the process later, but it's driven me crazy enough that my brain's free-associating.

One of my best friends at CLS is thinks goats are sweet and fluffy.

Heidi Bond, of Letters of Marque, is obsessed with chickens and the horrible things that happen to them.

And I, of course, have a fondness for diabolic metaphor.

Only appropriate, therefore, that I should link to the present Goats storyline, in which Diablo the Satanic Chicken starts making up history again.

Good luck on interviews. Don't worry too much, though---legal employers aren't terribly good at identifying good prospects, and in fact no one is, so they rely on visible markers of what they assume is talent. It sounds snotty, but being at Columbia and being on journal is probably 90% of what they're looking for. Good luck, again. TtP
