SBA Newsletter- Volume 6

NOTE FROM YOUR NEW PRESIDENT Reema Hassanieh Although it has been said in every newsletter, I truly mean it when I say that the Boyd community is incredible. I have never felt like I belong more than I have in the past two years. I'm constantly told that my bubbly and positive personality brings others joy but I wouldn't be able to be as positive as I am had it not been for all the people around me making me happy. Law school is challenging, especially online, but being surrounded by peers, faculty, and administration that care about our well being makes it so much better. This is my personal thank you to anyone that has made the last 7 weeks better and allowed me to (virtually) lean on them. Please know that any Boydian can reach out to me for support or a venting session anytime. Thank you for voting, thank you for trusting me, but most importantly thank you for believing in me. I can't wait for what's to come! I have no doubts that the SBA 2020-2021 board will do everything that we can to make your law school experience memorable and enjoyable!

GOOD LUCK WITH FINALS :) YOU GOT THIS!

I once ordered McDonald's next to Chance the Rapper at a Japanese airport. He came back to complain to the workers about his soda and delayed my meal by a whole five minutes. I guess it's true when they say you shouldn't meet your heroes. I still bump Acid Rap in the whip though, great mixtape.
