Well, it's over. Three years. It's a funny feeling. How many times did we consider dropping out. . .or whether we would ilunk out that first year. . .or whether it was worth it? That first year of Law School was like that first year of college, when we were certain that the powers-that-be had no conception of the magnitude ofthe work load that was being imposed on us. We made friends, grouped up, and spent many hours complaining about the system, the work, and why we had ever decided on this self-inflicted torture in the first place. Nobody seemed to know whether we should rely on cans, brief cases, read hornbooks, outline, take lengthy or sketchy notes. . . I guess this indecision is what made life unbearable that first year. We tried to resolve it by doing everything. . . until we found out the days weren't long enough. There were bright moments, though. . .coffee at Dominic's , Wednesday night at the Bell, Washboard Willie, football games. Candlelight Christmas dinner at the Club. . .inspiring, wasn't it?. . .sort oflike the first time we glimpsed the stoic and beautiful interior ofthe Library. Worries eased up a bit. Sometimes we even enjoyed reading Torts or Criminal Law cases. . .even though we still hadn't quite overcome our amazement at the size of those Casebooks. Christmas vacation arrived. The Great Escape. Finals. Most of us were surprised at those first gradesg they were either higher or lower than expected-never quite parallel with what we antici- pated. I guess that phenomenon has never quite worn off. . .after three years, we still walk out of exams in a state of bewilderment, wondering what message the post- card is going to bring. The year ended and siunmer arrived. We were just beginning to forget the nervous stomachs and sleepless nights when it was time to return again. Surprisingly enough, it was almost good to be back. . .the Quad was elegant, the familiar faces were there-at least most of them. Law school was old hat now, we thought we had it licked. . .took a 15-hour course load, played a little ball, joined a few activities, watched the grades go down. Developed a different approach second semester: mini- mum of class preparation, maximum of review after class , works like a charm. Did a little skiing-the treacherous trails of Mount Hollyg the ruinous runs of Irish Hillsg discovered the grade to be such that one could go up the slope faster on the tow than one could come down it on the snowg quit skiing. Played a little golf, fought off Spring Fever, had picnics and canoes on the river, dug into the hornbooks, wrapped up another year. Third year. . .inverviews. . .indecision. . .a home? . . .a wife?. . .a job?. . .a specialty?. . . Talk it over with the boys. They don't know either? Well, let it rideg we'll think about it at the Rose Bowl. More finals. Sure am getting sick of those things. Never will be con- vinced that a three-hour pencil-pushing session is a fair indicator of one's knowledge of an area. I guess the profs are too busy with clients and publications to waste time drafting interim exams that would give the student some indication of his understanding of the course. The testing process is almost as outmoded as its bedfellow--the case system of teaching. At least one-third of our curriculum could be taught better and with less wasted effort by means of a short textbook. Cases are valuable to give us an analytical ability, but why must we read the htuidreds of judicial monologues which could each be summarized in a sentence? I suppose stare decisis rules in more areas than one. I guess that's about it. In spite of it all, Pm proud of this place. I enjoy the reactionl get when I tell some- one I went to Michigan Law School. Maybe it wasn't so bad after all. Now, if we can only get through the Bar Exam ....
