Lawyer of the Day

The University of Georgia School of Law is about to get a new law student that will surely raise the humidity level in Athens. The recently crowned Miss Georgia, Emily Cook, will use her beauty contest winnings to go to UGA Law.
Ms. Cook assumed the crown after middle school teacher, Kristina Higgins, turned down the prize hours after winning it.
What the hell kind of state is Georgia where beauty pageant winners are teaching middle school and going to law school? Thank God I grew up on Long Island, it makes it much easier to concentrate.
Look Listen to Emily Cook explain the beauty craziness in her own words:

In the interview, she explains that she’ll have to put off law school for a year — because being Miss Georgia is a full time job! But after that, she’s interested in business and corporate litigation. Apparently, she’s been able to pay for two years of law school with her earnings from being pretty.
Congratulations, Emily Cook. And congratulations to the future UGA Law class of 2013. There are worse reasons to show up for torts class.
