Message From Your 11th Circuit Governor
Members of the 11th Circuit:
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for electing me to be your 2008-2009 11th Circuit Governor. I look forward to working with the nearly 1,500 members we have in the Circuit to ensure that each of you receive the best and most the ABA has to offer to enhance your legal education. I have a broad spectrum of interests and I hope that if there is anything I can do for you or anything you want to talk about that you will not hesitate to contact me.
During my term as your Governor, I hope to promote interaction and involvement between the law students in the Washington, DC area, the Circuit and the ABA Law Student Division. The Circuit and the Division cannot function without our members. I encourage each of you to become involved in the Circuit: attend meetings, email me and the Lt. Governors with ideas and concerns, and make sure that your school has as much participation as possible. The Circuit is not a one way street for me, I do not want to tell you what we are doing and hope you want to participate; rather, I would like it to be a collaboration, with you telling me what you need and me doing my best to fulfill those needs.
I look forward to interacting with each of you. I am excited to begin work for the next year, and I hope to see each of you at an event in the near future.
Regards,
Ryan Sanders
11th Circuit Governor
