When Jay Munir became president of the Law School Council (LSC) last March, no one could say he lacked experience. The 24-year-olds political career first got off the ground when he was elected president of the student government - in the fifth grade. Oh, and at Forest Hills Central High School in Grand Rapids, Mich., he was freshman class president, sophomore class president, junior class vice president, and, senior year, president of the student body.https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/wp-content/uploads/2001/06/18-jaymunir-21.jpg
