On Thursday, October 7, dozens of students attended the seventh annual Colgate University Law School Fair, which offers potential law students a sample of the post-graduate environment. Over 60 institutions set up booths in the Hall of Presidents, including Cornell University, New York University, Boston University and Columbia University schools of law. Colgate students were not the only ones visiting this public event, as visitors from schools, such as Hamilton College and Rochester Institute of Technology, were on campus to attend the fair. Naturally, mostly upperclassmen attended, but the occasional first-year was seen browsing the tables. “I don’t even know if I want to go to law school,” first-year Dan Fichtler said. Fichtler described himself as “very satisfied” with the range of both public and private schools represented from across the country. “This gives a good idea of what these places are expecting and what we should be doing,” he said. Those in attendance were asked what they would most desire to improve in the fair. Despite the approximately 60 schools represented, the greatest concern of students asked was actually the variety offered. “I would have liked to have seen more West Coast schools and other big names like Georgetown, Berkeley, UCLA, Harvard, Yale and Northwestern,” sophomore Martha Rose said. Still, as a student who hopes to enter law when she graduates from Colgate, she described the fair as having a “good range.” The overall reaction to the law fair was positive and even enthusiastic. “I met some interesting people and got a personal perspective [of law school],” senior Dan Hendrick said. Yet there may not have been enough publicity for the event to match the interest in it. “There could have been more fliers,” said Rose. “I wanted to come and had to look around for a flier to find out what time it was.” The seventh annual Law School Fair was sponsored by Career Services and the Pre-Law Society.
