Given the number of folks from Arcanis that have gone on to practice law, or attend graduate school over the past ten years... I thought I'd thank you guys for the inspiration.

As 3:52 pm EST time on Dec 18, 2015 I've been admitted to the University of Dayton's School of Law MSL program. So starting this fall I may be less active in the gaming world than normal.

In the meantime, I intend on inflicting upon the Destroyer of Worlds all the rules lawyering I can before the semester starts.

Thanks!

Eric Hughes

Congrats! Good luck with your schooling and remind me to avoid doing anything in your presence which could be cause for litigiousness.

It is more of an "Advanced Practice Paralegal" program as it does not include a J.D. or law license. One things I've learned from all my lawyer friends is that I don't wish to go through the first year of law school and by doing so surrender my family life. Think of me as a glorified research mook.

There are too many lawyers in the world already... working for one sounds like a much safer career choice!

Yep. I have a friend who is a lawyer and he always says the most important thing they never taught him in law school was that there are too many lawyers.

Does that officially classify one as a minion?

Maybe an Exceptional Minion? At least Fine. :)
