Dear All,

As you may know, the Pre-Law Society will be undergoing its annual board turnover at the end of this semester.  If you are interested in applying to an open board position, then complete the application appended below and email it to me at mm3272@columbia.edu by 5PM on December 4, 2010.  In the subject line, please write Pre-Law Society Board Member Application- Your Name.

If anyone feels that he or she cannot make the deadline due to extenuating circumstances, email me before the deadline and we might be able to work something out.

2010 Archive: Study Break

Hope everyone enjoyed a relaxing Fall Break!  I would like to invite you to Pre-Law's upcoming study break (please see the file below for the flyer).  

WHAT: Pre-Law Pizza Study Break
WHEN: 9PM on Wednesday, November 10
WHERE: 568 Lerner

We will be having a Pizza Study Break with a guest presentation by a Teach For America (TFA) recruiter.  For those of you who don't know, TFA is a unique opportunity to help close the American educational gap.  It is not only an impressive addition to any CV, but also a valuable experience that allows you to make a lasting impact on underprivileged students while altering your perception of what is truly important.  To learn more about TFA and its mission you can visit its website by clicking here. 

This is also a great opportunity to get advice on how to land a law-related internship, become involved with Pre-Law, learn more about our upcoming events, and get advice from Columbia seniors about the LSAT and applying to law school.

Hope to see you there.

Best,
Michael Mirochnik
President, Columbia Pre-Law Society
