On Thursday, April 10, the Department of Political Science hosted a dynamic Pre-Law event designed to connect highly motivated pre-law students with alumni mentors. 20 students attended the event, which featured a unique speed-networking format. Ten alumni lawyers, representing a diverse range of legal backgrounds, volunteered their time to offer insights and guidance. Students had the opportunity to engage in one-on-one conversations with each lawyer, spending about eight minutes per session before rotating to the next alumnus. The event was designed by University Pre-Law Advisor, Dr. Ken Ward, to provide students with personalized mentorship, career advice, and a valuable glimpse into the day-to-day realities of practicing law.
The ten lawyers featured were Jessica Magee, George Hyde, Mo Morales, David Mendoza, Christian Vasquez, Bre Boss, Colleen Tennent, Andrew Florence, Aaron Barker, and Mari Garza.
