Law Students

Ten Open-Ended Thoughts

1. Wouldn't it have been savory if the tree sitters had nested in Boalt's recently razed Stinky Trees?
2. When Top Dog 'catered' the Career Fair, they didn't just hand over their kolbassas, wursts, and wieners. Instead they gave mini-vouchers to the visiting law firms who in turn used them to feed only the students who dropped by to mingle and exchange pleasantries. In other words, the firms used their control of a communal resource to impose self-serving transaction costs. Brilliant!
3. The Federalist Society's free pocket Constitution is noticeably thinner than comparable publications.  Yet nobody seems to notice.
4. Barton Fink may have been filmed at the Hotel Durant.
5. Whoever owns the laptop that keeps screwing up Boalt's AirBears network must be neutralized before the situation comes to a boil.
6. Assuming the world hasn't imploded, how much will an "Obama 2008" t-shirt be worth on eBay in 2040?
7. When writing in casebooks, pens make you feel messy; mechanical pencils make you feel smart.
8. Speaking of feeling smart, did anyone call Billings Learned Hand out when he began self-applying his middle name?
9. Why is it so difficult to release the Spring course list before the Fall semester beings?  Or the Fall course list prior to the Spring semester?  Or anything at all, before ever?
10. What happened to Boalt Briefs?
