Or, a vision in a dream. A Fragment.
I was reassured to know I’m not alone in thinking it’s insane to recruit students after only one year of law school (and I was starting to doubt myself, just because of the huge importance that’s placed on recruitment). I really need to talk to my non-law friends more… wait, do I have non-law friends anymore? Few other professions slot … Read More

My contention is that this doctrine, merciful though it appears, really means that each … Read More
