Did really well in college but not so well in law school.
Got two BAs from the University of Nevada, Reno with Distinction which was for GPAs (between 3.50 and 3.74) without taking Honors classes. My MA in Librarianship (Denver U.,) was probably around a 3.50 GPA while I also held down three jobs in different libraries or associated with work in different libraries.
Law school was another story as I really hated some of the law school classes and the games that went on in them. I did really like the clinical program though as well as some of the classes that took a more practical approach to the law.
I have done some very valuable work for victims/survivors of crimes since leaving the University of Minnesota Law Library employment in 1991. I do not think many academics would see it as all that worthwhile but victims/survivors knowing more about what programs are out there accessible through public and law library web-sites is a very practical thing.
