LLM GUIDE Board Nearing 50,000 Posts - THANKS
By Maren[LLM GUIDE] in Editor's Blog on Oct 14, 2008
Hi Folks! We hope everyone in the LL.M. Class of 2009 is settling nicely into their courses.As our LLM Discussion Board nears 50,000 posts (less than a hundred to go at last count), we wanted to do a little shout out to everyone who has posted on our board since we launched it back January 2005. With LL.M. students (past, present, and future) sharing their experiences and views, it has become a bigger and more lively community than we could have imagined. On average, there are 1,000 posts here a week!
Here's a little retrospective of some of the more notable threads. You might find nuggets of wisdom here...or maybe not.
The Popular Threads
"Tax Law Rankings" (85,000+ views)
"Best Law Schools in Continental Europe?" (55,000+ views)
The Legendary Threads
"Is a Harvard LLM worth it?" (going strong since April 2005)
"Foreign lawyer in the US? You don't need LLM"
The Funny Threads
"Best entertainment law programs in the US"
"Rejecting Harvard in Style"
And what would our board be without the truly heroic participation from LLMers like tmalmine, ivan2006, droit.est.philosophie, or the other experts and insiders like c.miller, lmwoods, richardvf, GregoryXu, who have been friendly and generous with their insight. There are many others worth mentioning. These are the kinds of folks that make online communities valuable. You rule!!
Till next time,
Maren
