Jim Manning gives virtual lecture at the University of South Carolina

Moore & Van Allen (MVA) Litigation Associate Jim Manning served as the guest speaker for the University of South Carolina’s virtual initiation ceremony of the Pi Mu Epsilon mathematics honor society on September 28.  During his lecture, titled “Thinking Like a Lawyer,” Jim outlined some problem-solving techniques he learned from math and law.  He shared that critical thinking skills necessary to succeed as an attorney are similar to those he developed in math.  Ultimately, Jim argued that a strong background in mathematics will serve one well in any field and encouraged attendees to pursue their intellectual interests regardless of the subject.
