A quick definition of personal servitude:

Personal servitude is a type of legal agreement where one person is granted certain rights over another person's property. This can include things like the right to use a piece of land or a building for a specific purpose. In some cases, personal servitude can last for a person's lifetime. It is important to note that personal servitude is different from slavery or forced labor, which is illegal and unethical.

A more thorough explanation:

PERSONAL SERVITUDE

Personal servitude is a type of servitude that grants specific rights to a particular person in a property. In Roman law, it referred to a person's right over another's property, regardless of the owner. In Louisiana law, it is a servitude that benefits a person or an immovable property.

  • A landowner's right-of-way over an adjoining piece of land
  • A right granted to one person to fish in another's lake
  • A person's right to use a property for their lifetime

These examples illustrate how personal servitude grants specific rights to a particular person in a property. For instance, a landowner's right-of-way over an adjoining piece of land allows them to access their property easily. Similarly, a right granted to one person to fish in another's lake gives them exclusive access to the lake for fishing purposes. Lastly, a person's right to use a property for their lifetime allows them to enjoy the benefits of the property for as long as they live.

esp with the scholarship!!
I don't really know where I want to end up practicing yet, but I've enjoyed living in the midwest so far. I think I might ultimately like to end up as in-house corporate for the work life balance.

I lived in Bloomington for a long time, can't speak to the law school but can answer Qs about the city if you'd like
@ParallelAgreeableOrangutan: How do you think it is to live in as a 20-something going to grad school? The comparison is Iowa city, so not an extremely high bar for liveliness. (No offense intended towards IC. I think it's a lovely place)

If you're outdoorsy, it's nice--obv no coasts or mountains, but two small lakes really close, lots of places you can go on a lowkey hike or camp without paying park fees or anything really
