It was while walking through the halls of Michigan State University that Judge Patricia Strowbridge found her inspiration to go to law school. Up until this point, she didn’t really know what she wanted to do, but the spark came in the form of a man asking students to answer some logic questions in front of a classroom that day. Judge Strowbridge couldn’t comprehend the puzzles, but she was intrigued. The man explained that the questions were from the LSAT and it was then Judge Strowbridge knew what her next step in life would be. Listen in to Open Ninth to hear her talk to Chief Judge Lisa Munyon about her time in law school at Georgetown and why she ultimately wanted to join the bench. OpenNinth.fm
