Applying to law school

Thanks, Amber.

I've been agonizing over my personal statement and whether to mention my feelings about the Marriage Amendment movement. I'm worried about being too political on the less popular side of the issue. I'm pretty sure I've decided to put it this way...

"I want to use my abilities in more the momentous events in peoples’ lives, like representing a client in a workplace dispute or a situation where an individual’s Constitutional Rights are threatened."

It says what it needs to say without being too specific. Of course, I feel bad that I'd be compromising, but I believe that since I'm trying to convince the admittance board to let me in, it's better to avoid taking too clear a position on such a hot issue.
