SECOND YEAR CLASS BEWILDERED AND AMAZED-Perhaps the most predominant and mutual characteristic of the first-year class as they enter Law School is their complete bewilderment. The first few classes do little more than increase their sense of apprehension at what is to come in the future. Lost in a Hgurative sea of queries, they scan the horizon frantically for a ray of light to illuminate The Law which they hope will carry them to the shores of certainty. But they are doomed to disappointment, as page one of Latty on Clzaltel Transactions aptly points out. Instead they are subjected to a series of questions hurled at them by the professor, they are confronted with dia- metrically opposed cases on indistinguishable fact situations fQueryPj. As beginners they have implicit faith in all that is in print. They accept case holdings as unimpeachable and the profes- sor's word as gospel. In short, they do not ques- tion, doubt or analyze. But as the first year draws to a close, the courses gradually ftoo damned graduallyj begin to take shape, and per- haps just a little more comprehending, a little better analyzing is theirs. The final exams mean perhaps of their their confidence again mounting momentarily, they face this last hurdle with grim determination, black coffee, and an ample supply of no-doze pills. the greatest test of the year, entire college careers. With ebbing away, their confusion THEY FIGHT ON-VVith.the beginning of the second term, the battle-hardened veterans return to find that while a few familiar faces are miss- ing from the classroom, a surprising number of their associates turned out to be quite a bit smarter than they had imagined. The second year of Law School is more or less an interim period. The newness of Law has barely worn off, and the threat of bar exams is still a distant one. They may do more work than they did in the prior year, but through improved study habits, more work is done in far less time. They are more critical of- dogmatic statements, whether made in books or by their professors. They feel a little more secure funtil examination timej and they have begun to think in legal terms, which is an accomplishment in itself. Paeizg
