To Make A Difference

The power and privilege bestowed upon one possessing a law degree is obviously great. It's easy for law students, even pre-law students, who are so engrained in the learning process to forget what it meant to value the law degree from a layman's perspective. I feel that it's sort of like a diamond - afar from your possession it looks sparkly, shiny and desirable, but upfront, in your possession, you're so accustomed to it that it feels like just another rock.

This morning I am reminded by John Grisham of law graduates' illustrious potential to protect people.
