JONATHAN LABONTE
Legal Studies Activities: Volunteering in the family probate court in Springfield, where he assited low-income families in the Uncontested Divorce Project. Future Plans: Jon has been preparing to take the LSAT and apply to the Western New England University School of Law, but has not ruled out enrolling in Elms College’s MBA program. Fun Fact: Jon originally wanted to be a police officer, feeling that there is “something noble” about upholding the law, but was “sidetracked” by his love of music. He jokes that sometimes he is still tempted to just play guitar in the streets.
You don’t know how strained our justice system is until you’re in it, but you have to be in the system to change the system.
