On September 18, 2009, Phi Alpha Delta hosted a picnic which served the dual purpose of being an informational call out meeting to Valparaiso Law students about the benefits of joining P.A.D. Christopher Nunley, Justice of P.A.D’s Valparaiso chapter, gave a speech concerning just this. As one of the world’s largest legal fraternities, boasting over 300,000 members, Phi Alpha Delta offers its members the unique opportunity to network with professionals who have already served for years in the legal profession.
The food P.A.D served was from Wings, Etc., and provided a nice break from the standard of pizza which seemed to be everywhere during September. Don’t get me wrong, I love pizza, but one can only eat Papa Johns so many times before going a little stir crazy.
The afternoon of September 18 proved to be a lovely day for a picnic; sunny and warm, it was probably one of the few nicer days Northwest Indiana will offer us for the remainder of the year. Curious 1Ls asked questions to the P.A.D officers present about classes, teachers, and study techniques. Everyone that grabbed a few wings stayed outside for, at least a short while, and chatted with their Valparaiso Law peers. All in all, it was a very nice event for everyone who attended.
