These sessions are mandatory per Section IV of the Hamline University School of Law Policy Manual: http://law.hamline.edu/registrar/student-policy-manual.html#_Toc202527011.
Because these sessions are designed around class time and on a weekend during which class is in session, it is not anticipated that anyone will not be able to attend a meeting. Should exigent circumstances exist or arise, however, contact Nancy Lochner, Director of Career Services, at 651.523.2470 or cso@hamline.edu immediately to explore options.
Suggested Texts/Supplemental Materials:
It is strongly recommended that you purchase a copy of Guerrilla Tactics for Getting the Legal Job of Your Dreams, (*Second Edition - 2008) by Kimm Alayne Walton, J.D., and you are encouraged to read the pages noted below before the meeting. You may purchase a copy of this text from the Career Services Office (room 201) for $10 (cash or check). (This book retails for $30, but the CSO helps subsidize the purchase by covering the additional cost.)
We are open various Saturdays, although we may be behind closed doors in appointments at any given time. Therefore, if we are not available you can also purchase the book from Deb Lange or Shelley Harker on Saturdays in the Dean's Office Room 106A. Alternatively, you may send in a check made payable to the Career Services Office (see address below), and we'd be happy to leave a book for you to pick up at another office open on any weekend (Registrar, Library). You may also purchase the book at the November orientation, if you wish.

On Thursday, November 19, 2009, from 6:30pm-9:00pm, the Culture Committee of the Alumni Association Board is hosting a Six Minute Social at the University Club in St. Paul.
The focus of the evening is on Hamline Law students having the opportunity to network with Hamline alumni to learn more about various areas of practice or other ways in which alumni are using their law degrees.
Food and beverages will be served, and great fun will be had by all! The Six Minute Social is a great way to meet current Hamline Law students, but more importantly, it's a way to assist students with choices they have as they go forward in pursuit of their degrees and consider options that exist after they graduate from law school.
We hope to see you there!
