I am one of the founders of the Office of Pre-Law Advising, located in Carroll Building 2213. Please drop by whenever we are open for further information on attending law school, taking LSAT prep courses, or other information related to the legal profession. I advise every term for two hours per week; check the OPLA page for specific times for me or other advisors.

REGISTER TO VOTE--EXERCISE YOUR RIGHTS. Remember, every year is an election year. See one or more of these links: The National Voter Registration Form from the Federal Election Commission can be found at the US Election Assistance Campaign. Information on why college students should vote (your voices are very important!) can be found at http://campusvoteproject.org/. A site specific to Georgia is at the Secretary of State's website, http://sos.ga.gov/index.php/elections.
