1.  Who do you plan to interview?  Why?
I plan on interviewing my mentor for simple reasons like getting more information about the field of criminal justice and about what it is like to work as one. However, if, by any chance, my mentor isn't available for interviewing, I know a district attorney working at that place whom I know a little. It is possible to set up an interview with him too. If all else fails, my mother has been working for district attorneys for 10+ years, so although the information and answers about criminal justice will be from a slightly different, secondhand point-of-view, it will still be good information nonetheless.




2.  Five questions will be assigned to all seniors to ask.  What additional questions do you plan to ask?  

• If you could do it all over again, would you still choose this path?
• Have you always wanted to become an attorney?
• What was it that motivated you to go through 4 years of university and 3 years of law school to get where you are at now?
• What is most valued in a prosecuting attorney?
• How often do murder/death penalty cases come up?
