This is a fairly big list, and there aren't very many lawyerpunks on it.
(And they all seem to be tied up arguing with Choate. :-)
For a host of reasons only peripherally related to things like CJ, Jim
Bell, my own brief experience running a remailer, et cetera, I've begun to
seriously consider law school.
If nothing else, it's a great way to defer paying on those student loans
for another few years...
So, in vaguely-random order:
* How does one decide whether law school is what they want to do? In a
broader sense, how do you decide whether you want to be a lawyer when
you grow up? The lawyers on the list are definitely encouraged to respond.
* Is there really a need for technically-inclined lawyers? In my far-from-
expert opinion, there seems to be a shortage of them... After I'm done,
will I still be able to afford Ramen? (Bear in mind that I have no
interest in becoming an ambulance-chaser. Not gonna go there.)
* How will my undergraduate studies come back to haunt me? (My overall GPA
was good but not great, and my Bachelor's is in computer science,
instead of a more traditional prelaw field.)
* Recommendations of lawyerpunk-friendly law schools?
thanks!
