My Daughter, JD

My oldest daughter graduated from Phoenix School of Law today. She is the exiting Student Body President, a Moot Court competitor and was selected by her peers to speak on behalf of the student body at their graduation ceremony. 

This is her speech.  I have no idea where she gets her sense of humor and affability from, but I'm certainly one proud father today.

Congratulations to both of you!

Her speech was great! And listening to it while thinking back 37 years, I realize that although Facebook (and other technology she mentions) is new, some things about law school never change. (Especially the part about free legal advice for life!)

Congratulations to all! Well done!

"And we know we will have to repay them with free legal advice for the rest of our lives."

Yes. Yes you will.

As the proud parent of a young woman who graduated with her BA last week, I greet you the proud parent of a truly outstanding and accomplished young woman. Many years (of free legal advice) and love and joy to both of you.
