communication

Read a random definition: Curia Regis

A quick definition of communication:

Communication: Communication is the way we share information with others. We can communicate by talking, writing, using our hands, or even just by how we act. The information we share is called communication. Sometimes, when we talk about someone else to another person who also knows them, we have a special rule called "conditionally privileged communication" that lets us say negative things as long as we are telling the truth and not trying to be mean.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Communication is the process of sharing information through speech, writing, gestures, or behavior. It involves expressing an idea to someone else so that they can understand it.

Example: When you talk to your friend about your favorite movie, you are communicating with them. You are sharing information about the movie and expressing your thoughts and feelings about it.

Example: Another example of communication is when a teacher gives a lecture to their students. The teacher is sharing information about a subject and trying to help the students understand it.

Conditionally privileged communication: This is when someone makes a statement that could be considered defamatory, but they have a good reason for saying it. For example, if a former employer gives a negative but truthful job review of a former employee to a potential future employer, this could be considered conditionally privileged communication. The employer has an interest in the subject (the former employee's job performance) and is sharing information with someone else who also has an interest in the subject (the potential future employer).

The examples illustrate the definition of communication by showing how people share information with each other in different ways. Whether it's through talking, writing, or behavior, communication is an essential part of human interaction.

@s95: My cousin is an immigration attorney who recently argued in front of the supreme court. He attended the University of Houston for law school. There are so many good schools for immigration law, countless clinics.

@s95: The higher the rank though basically means more opportunities possibly with a debt trade off. It's hard for me to say more without knowing your goals though. Awesome you already have an idea what you want to do as a lawyer!
[] ararara
17:06
I would research immigration law clinics
@s95: generally school specialties are kind of silly. it’s usually the rank of the school that determines the opportunities you can get from it across the board
with caveats for strong regional schools with a regional focus and so on

@s95 University of San Diego
