Weekly Law School Roundup #33

Welcome to my sort of Back To School edition of the Weekly Law School Roundup! I say sort of, because I personally haven’t started school again, and some of the posts featured below are from folks who won’t be starting school again this fall (seeing as they graduated, of course).

You Know It’s the First First Day (or Week) of School When…

• your workspace doesn’t work with your space (Who Cares What You Think?)
• things start getting tougher (Law and Mommyhood)
• you understand that it’s normal, but still think it sucks (Loco Delictis)
• you can see that it is fun (McLeod’s Blawg)
• you know you made the right decision (the littlest tortfeasor)
