On Tuesday, Nov. 20, the Frank G. Raichle Pre-Law Center and the pre-law fraternity Phi Alpha Delta are hosting a panel entitled “From Classroom to Courtroom,” geared around five distinguished lawyers’ journeys, at 6 p.m. in Science Hall Commons. The panel will be moderated by the two new Raichle Pre-Law Co-Directors, Judge Lenore Foote-Beavers and Mr. Scott Sroka. I encourage anyone who has ever even pondered law school or possesses any tincture of an inclination towards the legal profession to attend.
In the legal field, like many others, networking is everything. Canisius has its own association of alumni esquires known as the Desmond Law Society, named after Charles S. Desmond, a Canisius alumnus and former Chief Judge of the highest court in the state, the New York Court of Appeals. This is the first time this semester that you will be able to meet many of those alumni, who can possibly provide you with internships in the near future or even careers in the coming decades. Following the panel is a reception to introduce yourself to the panelists and other attending lawyers to make a good first impression.
Many of you probably do not realize Canisius even has a pre-law center, given that its former home was Lyons Hall, which was destroyed in December 2022. The new location is OM 103, tucked away in the hallway between Old Main and Bagen Hall. The pre-law center is currently in a zone of transition, but that should not stop you from taking advantage of the opportunities before you. I hope to see you there!
