Law School!

You may (or may not) have noticed that I have been fairly absent from Learning From Dogs for the past few months.  While numerous factors play into this, the primary reason is that in August I began my classes at the University of Georgia School of Law, and have since ceased to exist outside of Athens, GA.

Okay, so that is an exaggeration.   The only unfortunate part of law school, though, is that it has hindered my ability to keep up with currents events, and thus has made it difficult for me comment on such.

In trying to think of something I could write about, I realized — why not just write about law school?  I have been surprised (usually pleasantly) by my experiences here, and think that many readers would be equally surprised about many facets of legal education in the USA.

In the coming weeks I’ll be writing blog posts now and again about my experiences, how they do or do not conform to stereotypes about law school and lawyers, and what direction I think the American legal education system is heading in.

That being said, it’s time for the Legal Research and Writing class, so farewell for now!
