MSBA 2010 "Meet & Greet to Succeed" Law School Mixer

From the Minnesota Bar Association's Section Services Director Elyse Farnsworth:

We are looking forward to the upcoming law school mixer on February 2, 2010. We'll have an excellent panel discussion provided by a group of new lawyers; they will focus on finding jobs in a touch economy and general networking tips. The panel discussion will be followed by a reception at which roughly 100+ attorneys have registered to attend.

The attorneys who plan to attend are very excited about the opportunity to network with the students, so I hope we can top last year's attendance of 227 students. You can find an event flyer at: http://www.mnbar.org/news/LawSchoolMixer.pdf.

We are really looking forward to another successful mixer.

Sincerely,

Elyse Farnsworth
