A testimonial ode from a JD/MBA: The grad school formal-going experience

Each winter the law school hosts a formal event
Replete with music and gowns, and tuxedos you rent.

The “Law Prom,” as we refer to this Barristers’ Ball
Is a special event highly regarded by all.

Faculty, staff, and students come together on this night
And seeing everyone dolled up is truly a sight.

To celebrate with people who you often only see in class
Really feels great, even if you just got a Low Pass.

We look forward to the event as a way to have fun
To relax and reflect on all the hard work we have done.

This year Olin too will host a fancy soiree
With awards, food and drinks we will dance the night away.

So infrequent is the occasion for us to come together elegantly,
And you can’t beat the price – admission is free!

The night is set to be full of glamour and glitz
After all, the Formal is being held at the Ritz!

February 26 is the date we have propositioned,
So say farewell to the mini with this new tradition.

Get ready for the Formal and prepare to celebrate
The parts of Olin we know are so great!
