A firm that didn’t reject me
I finally got a non-rejection from a firm! The letter from Jackson Walker’s Austin office reads:
Thank you for your recent letter and resume. We appreciate your interest in Jackson Walker. We will keep your resume on file and call you should an opportunity for you arise in our 2005 summer clerkship program
It’s hardly a request for an interview, but they’re at least going to look at my file before they throw it away. Jackson Walker’s San Antonio office’s rejection came today, and it had the standard line about the clerkship program being full. Though the letter is likely a form letter, I can always hope that they haven’t chosen their summer clerks yet (not likely) and if not, that they’ll maybe pick me (even less likely).
For now, I think my $1 is safe from P-Man.

i'm sure you'll get a clerkship, sam. just hang in there. if you were willing to work for some bleeding heart liberal cause for no pay, you'd probably have offers coming out the ass.
glad things went well in court!
They would be offers coming out of someone's ass, because they'd all be crap (cue the rim shot).
As for the firm in the post: I checked their website and it turns out that they don't even hire 1Ls. My application was so bad that they didn't have an accurate form letter for it.
sounds like you're still waiting on seventy-something letters, so i'm just gonna sit back and wait.
