“I will tell people about St. Francis the same things that I tell my friends who have talked about, ‘Oh, I always thought I wanted to go to law school’; do it. Stop talking about it and do it. It will be perhaps one of the most rewarding experiences you’ve ever had. It has been a wonderful experience.”
