Adam finished Harry Potter 6 Sunday - he beat everyone here. He's a speed reader - this will serve him well during law school.
And speaking of ... we're now at the stage of deciding where to check into, investigate further, and apply to for law school. Adam has started receiving recruitment letters and emails. He's been pretty stuck on the idea of staying here in DC, which didn't quite sit right with me. I kept suggesting looking into some schools out west, which wasn't sitting quite right with him. Today, he got a recruitment from the College of William and Mary, and that triggered us discussing a list of all the law schools in DC, all of the law schools in Virginia, and the schools out west that we've talked about before. Oddly enough, I felt the best about the Virginia schools away from the DC metro area, which surprised us both. We're still going to apply to pretty much everything in the area, and I want Adam to make official "tour" visits with all of the campuses in DC and VA. But at the moment, William and Mary, which is down in Williamsburg, has launched itself to the top of the list. Just thought you'd like to know.

From what I understand Willamette University has a good law school.

I actually suggested that a long time ago but Willamette is a Tier 2 school, meaning that it's not in the top 100 rankings in the country. Adam wants - and qualifies for - a Tier 1 school. U of O and Lewis & Clark in Portland are at the bottom of the top 100 and Adam was willing to consider them, but they don't feel right for us. Like I said, we have talked a lot about west coast schools. This post is part of a conversation that's already been going on for over a year - not a whim statement here, and there's still a long way to go.
