THE ADvOCATE
Some people only worry about what life has to give to them. But there are fewer people, of which you are a part, who think that it is more important to give life your best. You use the talents God has blessed you with to bless others. That makes you special.
Some people wait around hoping good things will come to them. But there are others, like you, who work hard to make good things happen in their lives. You are self-driven and are good at driving others to make good things happen for them too. That also makes you special.
Some people might be afraid of new experiences, of taking risks, of facing the unknown. But there are often dreamers, like you, who accept new challenges with eyes open wide in hopes oflearning new things and achieving new goals. That makes you very special.
Moment by moment, day by day, you are becoming the person you desire to be. You are someone extremely special to uS,someone we greatly admire, and someone we are tremendously proud to call our daughter. Keep dreaming new dreams, climbing new mountains, and reaching new heights. Congratulations to a dreamer, a doer, a striver, a seeker. We dare to be special like you. Love Always, Mom and Dad

§OOdt-!JEi 'J'Wm CihE clfdeJocah ~taff I would like to thank the students, faculty, and administration for all of their
support of The Advocate this year. Your interest and participation have made this the best year yet for the student law school newspaper. I would also like to thank my stafUor all of their hard work, insight, and inherent talents. Your willingness to work relentlessly covering stories, writing articles at the last minute, making late night and early morning edits even when on vacation, and long weekends of layout made the paper a success. I feel very lucky to have been your Editorin-Chief. I am certain that with Nicole Travers as the new Editor-in-Chief the paper will reach even greater heights .
I would also like to thank the parents for all of their contributions and participation in our final graduation issue. They made this issue truly special. I had the privilege of reading all of the messages to the 3Ls and I am proud to be a part of such a talented group of people. I have every confidence that the upcoming classes will also be smashing successes.
I have greatly enjoyed writing the Angel @ Law and Sex & Law columns over the last two years. I hope you enjoyed reading them as much as I did writing them - remember nothing is ever that serious. So let me leave you with a final word: I am often asked, as you are, what kind of a lawyer do you want to be? To which I respond, "A great one." The questioner usually thinks I am being sarcastic or flip. I'm not. They mean to ask, "What kind of law do you want to practice?," which really isn 't that important. You can be good at many things, but being great is not so easy. I would like to be a great lawyer and a great writer. And with a class as blessed as mine, I have no doubt that all of the 3Ls will be great lawyers, regardless of class rank, GPA, or job salary.
Best Wishes, Shannon Hadeed

As the outgoing News Editor, I would like to thank the entire law school community for giving the news staff something to write about. I can truly say that my position on the paper has given me an enlightening understanding of just how much is accomplished at this school, by students and faculty alike. From trial team competitions, to journal symposiums, to faculty and guest lectures, you have done it all, and have done it well. Special thanks to those organizations whose leaders actually sought out members of the Advocate staff to request coverage. I appreciate your reliance on the paper.
On a personal level, I would like to thank everyone who has written for news over the past two years. I especially thank Susan Billheimer, who has given us wonderfully informative articles about the school Honor Code and Legal Aid clinics, to name only two of many. Thanks also to Gary Abbott, who has served as copy editor for the past two years and has put up with last-minute submissions, stray commas, and stressed-out section editors.
Finally, I know I am leaving the News section in the eminently capable hands of Marie Siesseger, who served as my assistant this year. I thank her for her incredible commitment over the past two years and have no doubt that she will continue to improve the quality of the paper.
Best wishes,
Adrienne Griffin

A Fo fVd FtVye,w-e,ll Messages from the William & Mary Administration and Faculty
_ Your first year in law school witnessed some of the most stressful and frightening events that have ever occurred in our individual and collective experiences. Not only did you survive law school despite the devastating events of your first semester, you went on to thrive and contribute in ways unsurpassed by any class that I know of. We at William and Mary know that you are going to succeed beyond your wildest expectations; you, in turn, know that we at William and Mary will take credit for every single success you achieve.
In the hopes that others can learn from my experience ...
The Five Most Important Things I've Done Wrong Since Graduating From Law School (that I can state publicly): 1. Not had more children 2. Let my daughter join a travel soccer team (don't let it happen to you! kills whole weekends. what ever happened to pick-up games at the schoolyard?) 3. Lost touch with good friends from law school 4. Boarded a return flight from Anguilla, British West Indies (AKA Paradise; oooh, those powder white beaches, nearly deserted, stretching for miles .. . ) 5. On a number of occasions: acting without sufficient reflection, espe-

The Five Most Important Things I've Done Right Since Graduating From Law School: 1. Had 2 children 2. Quit pretending I had hair on the top of my head by combing strands from side to side (was becoming a "swoop guy") 3. Started exercising regularly (not until I turned 40, very painful at that age; do it sooner!) 4. Learned to stop fighting it, and instead embraced my addiction to eBay 5. Weighed personal satisfaction in work far above monetary compensation E. Kades
To the Class of 2004 -
I know you won't forget your three years (and for some of you, seven years!) in Williamsburg. I know you will also spread the word to your employers and others just what a wonderful law school this. Never underestimate the power of word-of-mouth! But please do three more things after you leave here:
(1) keep in touch with your professors-e-mail us when you're involved in a matter you think might interest us -we're always glad to hear good war stories, stories of triumphs and stories about interesting client problems;
(2) ask us for help-when you confront an ethical problem, or a research assignment that seems to have no answer, see if we can offer some assistance (the price is right and we frequently have some pretty good advice); and
(3) keep in contact with each other-this kind of networking will make it easier if you want to make a job change in a few years, and is also a very satisfying way to keep connected. My other suggestions are the same as always: make sure as a lawyer you
(1) have some fun, (2) do some good, and (3) cause a little trouble for someone who deserves it.
My very best wishes to you all ..... .

Over the past three years I and others have been involved with a number of criminal justice related projects including work in capital matters, educational programs at correctional centers, and providing research assistancefor lawyers handling appeals of indigent criminal defendants. On each occasion we have asked members of your class to participate, to work for no unit credit, no money. On each occasion we were overwhelmed by the generous response, always far too many people to be working on a particular project. So many of you have labored mightily on difficult pro bono matters under trying conditions. Yet always you have been enthusiastic, cooperative, and genuinely helpfuL For all of that, I say to you, Class of 2004, thank you so much for being such a caring group of outstanding individuals.
