Why did you choose to attend Loyola University Chicago School of Law? Because of my Discover Loyola day. I was on the fence about where to attend law school before I came, but I walked out knowing I would be at Loyola in the fall. Everybody I met, whether they were interested in public interest or not, seemed very interested in how the law could best serve their communities, which is something I’m passionate about. It resonated with me as a very special place, and the kind of place that seemed like I would get an incredible exposure to diversity, but also where everybody seemed to be working on a common goal: making the world better.
