Finally..someone who understands...LOL

Actually I am going into my third year of law school. Yeah at the beginning of last semester (2L) year, I had gotten past all of the B.S. the professors were trying to pull by intimidating the students. Hell, I rarely read cases anymore (can I say outlines and supplements!!)!

Luckily, the firm that I am clerking with has 1900 billable hours. I am going back and forth between transactional and litigation. Why? I have no idea which speciality I want to go into. I like the research and writing aspect of law and I also like to argue (I'm on moot court). But I just hear so many horror stories from some of my friends working at the big law firms. Yeah there are a lot of social activities but I have also heard of clerks going right back to work right after those events.

Hazing doesn't stop after you join the firm???? Ay que lastimo! Even after as a junior partner?!

Question: Do you feel that black lawyers get more hazed than others or is it an equal opportunity hazing?

Thanks for advice--you are definitely giving me somethings to think about!
