Books for the pre-1L summer

By Casebook Sherpa On 03/08/11 · · In 1L

Someone entering law school this fall asked whether there were books he should read to get ready for school. I really only read one book in preparation for law school, thinking that I’d get more than my fill of reading during that first year, but this is what I suggested based on [...]

The Myth of the Evening Student.

By Dr. Bombay On 07/08/08 · · In 1L

By Dr. Bombay On 04/28/08 · · In 1L

The Hypo will be on hiatus this week, and we haul our sorry carcasses through exams. We’ll be back in full force on May 7th after we’ve driven a stake through the heart of Contracts, and the hangover has worn off. A few thoughts for you to consider in our absence:
