Hi there and welcome to the freshest Fridays From the Frontlines! As exams begin to recede from students’ memories, and journal writing competitions come to a close, law students can now turn their eyes to their summer internships and reflections on the past academic year.
0L Danielle reviewed her previous law school application attempts and decided that, even with an acceptance under her belt, that it was worth it to try again for a top school. 0L Ricky Nelson compiled a list of things to look for when apartment shopping. 0L Brownbelle enjoyed reading a book about the Harvard Law Class of ’64, particularly the female members of that class. NYU ’12 Invisible Man recounted his take home Con Law exam and hoped the result wouldn’t be a “massacre.” NYU ’12 IDWSJ compared law school to baseball, and was happy to be on first base. 1L Esq. wrapped up her first year and competed in her school’s journal competition. Northwestern ’12 Jeremy prepared a presentation for Latino Legacy Weekend. NCCU ’12 TDOT expected to observe a mediation session but ended up leading it and coming up with a successful resolution of the issue. 1L Julie Anne shared photographs from her trip to Cambodia.
Harvard ’11 Ivy Lea experienced a hellish number of setbacks as she tried to fly from Boston to Austin, but arrived safely. 2L Laura Bergus shared her take on the recent SCOTUS ruling on American Needle v. NFL. Marshall ’11 Huma provided her two cents on FarmVille and debt. Harvard ’11 Cat linked to a post about the possible abolishment of bluebooking. 2L Non Token Minority reviewed his second year in law school and expressed frustration with how many things he still had to learn. 2L The Exit continued to consider the merits of being a social worker instead of a lawyer. Minnesota ’11 Dennis watched many 3L coworkers depart for bar prep and new interns overdress at his full-time summer job. Austin ’10 Paragon2Pieces began her bar prep.
And that concludes this week’s news on the law school ‘blawgosphere.’ We wish all recent graduates the best of luck in their next career steps, and we hope that current students will keep blogging throughout the summer. Until next week, have a great weekend and Memorial Day!
