Michigan Law School, Lets Buy Out Michigan!
Q: well im bored at work as usual... and i hapenned to be talkin to Irfan and
Saqib (two MI reps) and i came across this article. i think this is why all
of MI is comin to Chicago
A:It seems that this is the general trend. Rumor has it that even Irfan Bhai
wants to stay in Chicago for the rest of his career (can this be
confirmed?).
From numerous conversations with Irfan, I believe that he is looking to stay
in Chicago.
I might not be able to roll this weekend. :(
MCC asked me to MC their dinner on Saturday night
wow. as funny as the tag for the email was, I think there's something we
should all take note of, the line that says that one THIRD of Detroit lives
in poverty. We have to understand, the govt "standards" for poverty are LOW.
I know that these days I prolly come off as the whiny voice in the back of
your heads, but something about being alone in a poor and unstable country
that just makes you more aware of these things.
the point I'm trying to make, (and Azam I'll give you the mic back in a
sec--hehe) is that we need to seriously start thinking abt how we need to
give back to the country to which we owe so much. "We have the tools--we can
rebuild it."
I don't know where to begin with that email, so I'll just leave it at this -
as low as poverty is and will be in THIS country, the degree of poverty
overseas is immeasurable! (Saud, I know you didn't mean to leave out this
portion of the population, but I wanted to mention it in light of the
discourse). I know it's a far reach for someone like me - who completely
distinguishes between domestic and foreign issues - to call upon working on
the issues of poverty overseas, but it's really that bad over there! Our
system of governance, as critical as we can be of it, still contains ways
for those in poverty to survive.
