Quality of Life Survey |
| Full-time law program |
I can't imagine a better place to attend law school than Texas Tech as
far as quality of life goes. Law school's pace is hectic. If you live
in a big city, the pace of city life is equally hectic. Lubbock, Texas,
forces you to slow down and breathe. No matter how crazy your schedule
is at school, you always know that the checker at the grocery store is
going to talk to you for ten minutes before he or she will let you go
home with your macaroni and cheese. I really think I would have had a
much less successful law school experience if I had stayed in a large
city like where I grew up.
In addition, Texas Tech has a lovely campus (it's a dead ringer for
Stanford, even if it is in the middle of west Texas. The fact is, the
university is the center of life for Lubbock. All the best restaurants
are near campus, housing is comparatively cheap (I rented a 4 bedroom
house in a great neighborhood for $800 a month), and Lubbock is a very
safe community.
