“Careers in the Law” networking event huge success at FAMU Law
ORLANDO, Fla – The atrium at Florida A&M University (FAMU) College of Law was buzzing as students networked with attorneys and representatives from a wide-range of legal disciplines at the second “Careers in the Law” event.
“Careers in the Law” was designed to give our students an opportunity to speak directly with lawyers to learn about various practice areas as they make important decisions about entering the legal profession,” said Assistant Dean for Career Planning and Development Randolph Reliford. “Our students enjoyed interacting with the legal community and getting their questions answered.”
“Careers in the Law” was coordinated by FAMU Law’s Career Planning and Professional Development Office. The event was held on campus at 201 Beggs Avenue in Orlando on Thursday, February 6, 2020.
