Pre-Law Interest Group Members,

We have an exciting announcement: the NACADA Pre-Law Advising Interest Group has added a listserv list to facilitate communication and networking among our members!

At our Pre-Law Interest Group meeting at the NACADA national conference in Cincinnati, those present overwhelmingly felt that a list serve would be an invaluable tool for keeping in touch with those they had met at the meeting, identifying and developing ideas for conference proposals, and sharing our resources. We hope this resource will provide you with new opportunities for networking and professional development.

Remember, too, the Pre-Law Advising Interest Group is for anyone who answers how-to-get-into-law-school questions from students, whether that is your primary role or just one of the many “hats” you wear on campus. Thus, you should also feel free to use the list serve to ask questions. Share those questions that stump you, and together we can find the accurate information you want to pass on to your students.

Some people are wary of list serves, as in the past they have been overwhelmed by a flood of e-mail on other list serves. At this point, we are just beginning, so it is impossible to gauge how lively our list serve will be, but as we are still one of the smaller interest groups, I suspect you will not find the amount of e-mail burdensome.

So please join, and help us get started! To subscribe to the listserv list, just go to the NACADA website at www.nacada.ksu.edu/list serve/C34.htm and follow the directions.

We look forward to hearing from you!
