You have access to it as a student.
I think people under-utilize that

I'm from Detroit, Michigan
so I didn't know anybody in Philadelphia.
I was going through websites for firms
and finding people that went to Penn State
so law firms advertise them quite a bit, the pedigree.
And even if it was undergrads,
not just the law school which is the nice part,
the name rings bells both on a undergraduate
and graduate level.
So, I would literally look and Google Penn State
within the firms website
and cold call or cold email every Penn State alum,
ending every email with, we are
and I got, I would say my return rate
was over 90% of people responding, reaching out,
being willing to have coffee, drinks,
talking about what they do and how they got there.
