[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really? One is 9k undergraduates, Jesuit in Boston. The other is 33k undergrads.

[b]I had no relationships with Amy professors at UM. [/b] My sibling at a smaller college is still in touch with several professors who helped tremendously with career and internships.[/quote]

My kid at UM makes it a point to establish a relationship with the professors of each of the classes he thinks he sees a future in. For example, he couldn't care less about his Chem professor but makes it a point to get to know and establish rapport with, say, his Computer Theory or Operating Systems professors. Most end up asking him to apply for a IA job for their class in the next semester and he is typically fielding mutiple offers. It's all about you, but I suspect that process may be a bit easier at a smaller private. I'd say Michigan gives you the 'opportunity' for such self-advocacy which is going to help, not hurt, in the legal profession. Not sure if UM undergrads have a leg up in admissions to Michigan Law but that's something to consider as well if Michigan Law is on the student's law school list.[/quote]
