Weekly MILS Roundup #16

Time for the weekly Moms in Law School Roundup! A little late, but here are the best posts from the moms this week:

• Homecoming (Lag Liv)


• When the kids are away, mom will… study (Adventures of Law School Mama)


• The flexible nature of time (PT-LawMom)


• Going back in time (The Merits of the Case)


• Wishing it would go faster (Knocked Up (and in Law School))


• Counting Down (Mommy Wants to Go to Law School)

The Weekly Moms In Law School (MILS) Roundup is hosted on a rotating basis here, at PT-LawMom, and at A Little Fish in Law School and is usually posted no later than Monday morning. Next week’s MILS Roundup will be at PT-LawMom.

If you’d like to have your blog added to the MILS blogroll for weekly review or would like us to consider a specific post, drop the hostess(es) an email or leave a comment at their respective sites.

Weekly MILS Roundup #15

This week's Moms in Law School Roundup is up at A Little Fish in Law School. Next week it will be back here.

Law Firm Rankings

Law Students Building a Better Legal Profession (BBLP) has just released its rankings of big law firms in several markets across the country in areas like diversity, billable hours and pro bono hours. I found the documents on the "female opportunity gap" particularly interesting -- while at many law firms women make up between 35-50% of associates, they generally make up less than 20% of partners.

I don't think I will be working at a law firm after graduation, but I haven't completely ruled it out, and, regardless, I think what big law firms do is relevant to the legal profession as a whole because the big law firms are the most visible face of the legal profession. So I definitely support what BBLP are doing.
