All we can do is support them. I just hope her path leads her to Law school later on. Again Congrats, Steve. That is such an awesome feeling.
Thank you for that. All we can do as parents is advise, guide and knock as much garbage out of their way as possible, let them lead their own way.

My Daughter graduated from UC Berkeley also and then went to Hastings Law School in SF. I went to her swearing in ceremony last night in Oakland. A Lady US Federal Judge created 5 new Lawyers.

I've never seen this process before, kinda cool to hear the differences between the oath that lawyers swear in comparison to the oath I swore in the USAF. They say "Support the Constitution" we said "Support and defend the Constitution"

thanks Steve I knew that I think I had a brain fart. Sometimes I don't think it thru LOL As long as I have been working with machines you think I know all the sources and I do just forget sometimes. It is nice to let someone find the link for you LOL

that's cool. we're both CAL Dads (literally and figuratively). i guess yours is more noble as you're supporting and defending the constitution. i could see the tears in your eyes (tears of happiness) during her swearing in. you did good SteveH. you're a good Dad.
