(A tweet from a soon-to-be law student’s boyfriend, in awe of the fact that the law school admissions dean who sent his boyfriend an acceptance letter added a note about the #FreeBritney movement, which helped the singer reclaim her freedom (with the assistance of a great lawyer). The note says, “Here’s to the Free Britney movement and re-examining the use of conservatorships and such. The law is indeed power!” Congratulations on your acceptance to law school!)
