>> Area major that I took, which was public affairs, was an interdisciplinary major,
in which I got a taste of a variety of subjects, economics, political science, actually,
urban planning, which I find really helpful now, but I think that whole concentration
on public affairs public administration, gave me a taste of what to expect now.
I would strongly suggest that if someone is interested in law school, do what you want to do
in your undergrad life, and I would steer everybody towards a liberal arts education
if I could, because I think, more so than anything, no matter what your chosen major,
no matter what your chosen field, I think that the liberal arts gives you the critical thinking
and analytical tools that you'll need to succeed in whatever you do, whatever you choose to do,
particularly if you choose the field of law.
Law is not for everybody.
In fact, we probably do produce too many lawyers in this country today.
However, if you wish to practice law you are dedicated to that,
pick up the critical thinking tools that you get in your undergrad degree now.
Be ready, because you'll need them.
You'll need them in law school.
You'll need them in the profession.
