 Grad & Law School:


• Thinking about grad school?
The National Communication Association's Graduate Program Directory
is a great place to start, but some of the listings can be dated, so also check the web pages
of individual programs that look interesting and talk to me or another faculty member.

And here's some good advice from The Grad School Handbook 
 
Of course, one grad program to consider is our very own in the IPFW Communication Department

Thinking about law school?

Read the American Bar Association's "Preparation for Legal Education" for their advice

And read this good advice from Slate Magazine and the Wall Street Journal, and this Associated Press article

Then check out the Official Guide to ABA-Approved Law Schools

And the Department of Political Science's guides on preparing for and applying to law school and
studying and practicing law
