UC Davis Offer of Help and a Horse

2005-09-10T01:31:00Z

University Of California Davis has taken 13 or so Tulane/Loyola law
students displaced by Katrina. I am looking to find some who are moving
here to Davis. I'm hoping to provide some study materials, backpack,
extra clothes, some extras etc. I can pick you guys up at the airport. I
drive to campus every day and can offer some rides. I own a dressage
horse you can borrow if you miss yours. Ideally I'd find a girl who is
about my same size (12-14 pant, 10- 10 1/2 shoe) who may call me up and
say "Hey Leslie, I need a date dress, and a ride".

Looking for Professors Bonfield and Samuel

2005-09-10T01:29:42Z

Hi,

If anyone has information on Professors Bonfield and
Samuel, please drop me a note - I just want to make
sure they are ok: indira_ran@yahoo.com

Also, I want to offer my assistance to any students
interested in using their law degrees for alternative
careers - specifically, with creating or honing your
resume. I know many of you are looking for jobs.
Dealing with resumes is difficult enough in a normal
situation and I'm hoping my help will relieve some of
that stress. Since I graduated, I've worked for
Gannett and Yahoo! - on editorial, creative, and
business development sides. You can email me directly
at: indira_ran@yahoo.com at any time.

Thinking of all of you.

I am a Tulane undergraduate alumni ('94) living about 45 minutes north of Houston. I understand Loyola's law school has established a temporary satellite at the University of Houston's Law Center, and Tulane law students are welcomed. My wife and I have an unoccupied second floor with a fully furnished bedroom and living area. Although a bit of a long commute to U of H, our home might serve you well until you can get settled into the Houston area. Also, should you be interested in criminal law, I am a prosecutor, and you would be welcome to serve as a part-time intern in our office.

DC Housing for Someone Who Understands Terriers

2005-09-09T03:31:03Z

I am a Tulane law grad ('97) and my wife is a Georgetown graduate
student living here in DC. Our home is small, but we could set up a
law student for a semester with their own bedroom, including an
inflatable bed, some furniture, their own bathroom, and internet
access. Provided, and this is very important, that said student likes,
and I mean really likes, dogs. More specifically, Welsh terriers. Our
Welsh terrier is quite friendly, but has, on occasion, gotten
aggressive around those who don't understand him. He is not at all like
a lab. So if you or someone you know understands terriers, we would be
happy to take you, or your friend who understands terriers, in.

Please contact us directly at (202)387-7941 if you are interested.
