Re: Regent ranked in top 10 for online degrees.

The name change to Deep Threat was at the suggestion of an admin due to the original names association with something bad other than Watergate!

You guys are defeating that purpose by discussing the very thing we were trying to avoid.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

ROFL

Legal Writing and Legal Research right now, as well as a hum-drum required Critical Thinking class... I just don't get why my school split Legal Writing and Research into two different classes as they go hand in hand and even use the same books for the two classes. It should have been Legal Writing & Research I and Legal Writing and Research II, with the I as a prereq for II...but, oh well...

No, I am not in law school. I am going for an associates in paralegal studies. I then want to get my bachelor's. I am considering the law school thing in the future, though. I've not completely made up my mind yet. I may just stick with paralegal and work in getting every paralegal certification I can, which is the other thing I am considering.

I do know one thing: I will do my best to avoid as many math classes as possible! lol

No, I am not in therapy...and I know what I am in for...so I am probably past just regular

When I was in my early twenties I went to school to be a legal secretary and worked in law offices for about a year, but at some not-so-great firms. One of them was for my internship, but the guy was using the intern system to get free secretaries. Another was working with a maritime lawyer and it is boring... I got fired from that job for a discussion I had with the office manager/bosses wife during lunch about the bible... Not that I ever had proof, but right after that discussion is when she started acting really weird toward me, so it was obvious as to the real reason they fired me when they did. At the other my position title was 'paralegal' and I did nothing but work on discovery. I loved the work, but after a while of being there my direct supervisor kept warning me that I was going to lose my job if I didn't start brown-nosing the legal assistant. I don't even know how to brown-nose and was't willing to learn, so I got fired. I quit looking for jobs in the legal field after those experiences as I felt intimidated.

I started thinking last year about the jobs I have had over the years and realized that the time I spent working on discovery in a law firm was the most interesting job I had, despite the personalities of that one firm. The law has always been interesting to me. I'm 13 years older and have some excellent experience under my belt, so I am already proven as beling more valuable than I was at 23. I am also not intimidated by anyone's attitude or education and am of the mind that I would not hesitate to let a person know during an interview that I am not going to play office politics, so... I'm going for what interests me instead of continuing to settle for what is not so interesting.

You married a man who became a lawyer. Are you in therapy yet?
