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!
