Holiday Gift Suggestions for Pre-Law and Law Students
Sometimes the best gifts are the most practical gifts. While it’s usually more fun during the holidays to give and receive silly tchotchkes like this one here, or here, you can trust that you (or your pre-law giftee) will appreciate something more useful in the long-run. So whether you’re jotting down your own holiday wish list or buying for an aspiring lawyer, consider some of the following gift suggestions:
1. Black’s Law Dictionary (Standard Ninth Edition)– This is the gold standard for the language of law and a must-have for all pre-law and law students.
2. A Suit / Tailored Skirt and Jacket– Law students need to dress the part. As a 1L, professional attire is especially necessary for on-campus Interviews.
3. Dual Monitors– Having two computer screens in law school can be extremely helpful, particularly when it comes to legal research & writing (LRW) and outlining.
4. Keurig Coffee Maker, Single Serve– For the late nights and early mornings, this coffee maker is fast and requires very little clean-up. Already have one? Pick up a variety-pack of K-Cups.
5. Vitamins– Being sick is bad. Being sick in law school is really bad.
