College fairs put students on their way

Attention budding law students: You've gotta start somewhere.

A good first step for great future great legal (and non-legal) minds is the two-day Fall National College Fair, starting today at the Minneapolis Convention Center. The fair is expected to draw 25,000 high school students and their parents, who will visit booths representing more than 75 public and private two- and four-year college and universities from all over the United States.

The fair lets students and parents meet one-on-one with admission representatives and will learn about admission requirements, financial aid, course offerings, and campus environment, as well as other information pertinent to the college selection process.

As the parent of a high-school junior, I can tell you that events like this are valuable for learning about a wide array of higher-education options all at once.

As a relatively new attorney, my advice to any prospective law students is: don't go.
