Law School Life Cycle
Yesterday afternoon, the 1Ls got their first semester grades. My roommate and I were in the quad on campus when he said, "I just saw a girl up there crying." Not realizing at first that "up there" referred to the library, I looked up the balconies around us for some 1L on the verge of jumping. Now we enter the 1L version of Fight Club: grades are the subject on all of their minds, but grades are the one subject they all refuse to talk about no matter how much they really want to.
Today there is an Admitted Students' Reception. I'm surrounded by hundreds of little prospective students running around looking at the school. There are balloons and tours and free food and lots of other misleading displays of law school life. Law school is a happy, exciting place. Yay!
I think it would be much funnier if these two events happened the same day. I like law school, but that reality would still be amusing.
