Mary LaFrance is the IGT Professor of Intellectual Property Law.

You are a law student, your husband is in the Air Force, and your kids are...well, kids. Is making all that work as challenging as it sounds?

It is a balancing act and team effort! My husband and I are constantly comparing schedules for the family. I have also learned to ask for help! At times, this has meant having family travel to Las Vegas to help with the kids when my husband is away on assignment with the Air Force. It has taken a village!
