As law students, it rarely, if ever, crossed most of our minds that we would one day join the ranks of alumni. At points it was somewhat difficult to believe that law school would ever end, let alone that we would ever be in a position to reflect fondly on the experience and to support our schools. Nevertheless, as successful law students, we inevitably became alumni—and that transformation took place astonishingly quickly.
As relatively new attorneys, we are uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between law students and older alumni. We vividly recall what it feels like to be a law student, and the challenges and opportunities for soon-to-be graduates are largely the same as the challenges and opportunities that we so recently encountered ourselves. At the same time, we are now full-fledged members of the bar, just beginning to launch our professional careers. We can relate to both law students and real lawyers, arguably more sympathetically than lawyers at any other career stage.
