What 2007 Attendees Had to Say About the Event:

"I would like to thank you for coordinating such a successful conference!  I traveled from Miami, Florida and gained invaluable knowledge that will undoubtedly assist me in future academic endeavors.  For that, I am forever grateful.  Your hard work did not go un-noticed.  Workshop panelists were quite knowledgeable in their respective disciplines and shared valuable information.  It is my hope that more students of color will take advantage of the conference.  Again, I thank you."

"I am so grateful to have been a part of this year’s conference.  The information provided is invaluable to me as well as everyone who attended this conference.  I had every intention of gathering information needed to make a sound decision if attending law school and becoming a lawyer is the right decision for me.  I enjoyed every moment of the conference and would like to thank all involved for everything.  I anticipate attending next year’s conference, and would like to be as involved on every level possible.  You are a phenomenal woman who is a pillar in the community and devoted in sharing the wealth of knowledge with all interested.  Please feel free to call on me anytime to assist in the conference or in any level someone of my caliber may be able to offer.  Again I would like to thank you for all you have done for “us”."

"I want to thank you for the work you and others put into this conference.  I found it very informative and I had a great time.  This conference exceeded my expectations!  Thanks again for a wonderful conference.  I hope to attend again next year."
 

"Thank you and everyone who helped for putting together the conference. The panelists, admissions counselors, students and everyone else in attendance shared their insights and genuine opinions. The information I gained was invaluable, and I hope that you will continue on with the wonderful event."
 

"I must commend you once more on your efforts to create a successful and well-organized program.  It was truly a blessed weekend for me, as I was thoroughly enlightened, refreshed and reinspired to become the best lawyer I can be!!

Thanks again for everything."

"I attended the BPLC this year for the first time and it helped me immensely! The information that was presented was mostly new to me and will help me in the future while I'm applying, during law school and afterward in my career. All the presenters, panelists, the keynote speaker and other aspiring law students really made this conference worthwhile.  I came to Houston just with a strong interest in law, now I KNOW this is where I want to be. I can't wait to get the ball rolling on applying for law school and falling back on the contacts I made this weekend. I want to thank you for all you have done, because you played a very large role in my future law school experience.  Thanks again!"

"I had a wonderful time at the event. I became interested in more schools than I was previously. Also, I learned about some schools that I wasn't aware even had a law school. One of the highlights for me was learning about other areas of law that I wasn't privy to before. I can't wait till next year!"

"The Black Pre Law Conference gets better and better. You know last year was my first time attending, and I had an even better time this year attending the conference. My co-worker, who is also an aspiring lawyer attended as well, and she had a wonderful time. I liked the location at University of Houston, because it was so convenient. I met quite a few people from out of state who attended.  I had a chance to attend panels that I did not get to attend last year. After I become an attorney I will definitely be participating in this event as a panelist and tell others how this experience has helped me. I was also inspired to begin a mentorship program after I become an attorney, because mentorship is the key to increasing the number of black attorneys in this country."
