[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another GC for a nonprofit here.  I am an Ivy grad (Harvard) and honestly it does come in handy.  I'm youngish and the Board takes me very seriously because they all know I went to Harvard Law.  I don't talk about it but when they introduce me around they always bring it up.

I work 3 days a week, only lawyer, from home.  It is really the perfect law job for a mom but I spent my time billing 3000+ in biglaw.[/quote]

In the end, it isn't really about where you went to law school.  It is about the work you do.

It was certainly obvious when you mentioned where you went to school that you are "youngish."

My DH is not an Ivy League grad and yet they elected him managing partner of one of the biggest BigLaw firms.  And it is about the work he does.

You'll grow up eventually.[/quote]

That was exactly PP's point -- that s/he is young and the degree lends credibility that s/he might otherwise not have at the age.  Lay off with the eyerolls already, it just makes you seem bitter.[/quote]
