Ahhh, it's time to study for finals already?! What the heck?!
I've been getting all sorts of advice about when to start outlining ranging from 2 months ago, to Nov 1, to Thanksgiving. I'm sort of a slow starter so I'm leaning more towards Turkey Break :)
Soooo, I was going to make a long post/rant about the flak the legal industry/legal education sector is taking from some critics right now... namely "Above the Law". But, then someone up and went and did it. I might still do one, but it's certainly not a priority anymore. This guy pretty much said it best.
In fairness to blogs like Above the Law, they could very well be right. But the thought of these nice administrative folks at top law schools (I visited a bunch of law schools last feb/march/april during their admitted student days/weekends/etc) are lying through their teeth and scamming us out of oodles of cash. If someone like our Dean who is in charge of our, well, wellbeing can be lying to us under a facade of empathy and fake concern for all of us law students, it makes me very sad about humanity's capacity for... evil.
Convoluted, yes. I'm not really a very optimistic person, but I think I'm a bit less cynical/pessimistic about the intentions of legal educators... at least the ones at the more renown law schools. As for Cooley school of law or whatever? Yeah, maybe they're after money.

Hm, that just inspired me to maybe write more about this one day.
