Knocked Out the First Day
I had Criminal Law and Torts today, my first two classes of law school. A little side note, we had assignments for the first day of class, not assignment that our prof's gave us the first day, but assignments we had to have completed when we showed up. Criminal Law with Prof Bridge had us reading about 25 cases and Torts with Prof Ryan had about 20 pages of reading. Overall it was good, Bridge likes to call four people at the start of class, have them stand up and then he directs all his questions to those four people for the duration of class. Ryan calls on someone, asks them a few questions, then will move on to someone else. Pretty cool, but it can be intimidating. I didn't get called on, which turns out is probably bad luck, first day of class and the teachers expect less and are more sympathetic. The longer I go and the more challenging it will be. Legal Writing is going to be interesting, they basically told us that if you were a good writer in college, it's going to be tough for you to unlearn what you know. Great. Weekend is here, then I'll hit a full week of class, better get reading.
