Junior rushing?

AnchorAlumna, I'm actually switching to English because I'm planning to go into court reporting after I graduate! Haha no bookkeeping for me! FSUZeta, well to be honest I have no idea. My cousin said she could write me a letter of recommendation but that's all she said. Does writing a letter of recommendation have any effect on getting a bid or anything?

Ahhhh, I'm so relieved. OTOH, with all the cuts going on, courts will be using video"tapes" for records instead of human recorders.

Never say never. Sometimes you gotta take what you can get.

It absolutely doesn't guarantee a bid. But it might keep you from getting dropped right away. Better to have it than not. FSUZeta is right - all the Samford groups are good. Do NOT go in thinking you'll only accept A or B and not consider C, D, and E. You don't have as much power as you think.

Nah. Someone neutral still has to type the transcripts and certify them. Some courts use tape for some things, but we'll always need court reporters.

Possible. But then, I thought we'd always need local newspapers, reporters, and editors.
