I know that posts have been a bit scarce – finals, clinic papers, and a visit from the parental units will do that to you. But I will be taking a bit of a blogging sabbatical for a couple of months. Along with pursuing other whimsical interests, I will be doing some very exciting work […]

Sitting on my couch this weekend, I came to two very shocking realizations: 1) I haven’t paid my taxes yet. When are those due? 2) I only have two weeks of class remaining in my second year of law school. The first mental note was easy enough to address – I’m a broke law student […]
One of my cast mates from Legal Follies is a tour guide for the law school. This being tour season, with all of you new admits (congrats!) coming to check out your new digs, it’s not uncommon to hear an inordinate amount of complaints about the tower elevators.

I have been a fan of the show since it came on the air, if not sooner, counting the first time Aaron Sorkin sunk his dirty witty hooks into me with Sports Night. Although I never thought it possible, […]

At BU, they’re called classholes. At many other schools, gunners. Still others have no title but are reserved a snide look and a withheld invitation to any social invitation outside of the law school. Want a visualization? Think about varying degrees of Dwight K. Schrute. I don’t know when or how it started, but these […]
