Figured I do some of that ranting that my blog's supposed to be about. My prediction for the summer: It's gonna be boring. Nobody's on IM, half the people I know are out of town, and the ones who are here are all going to work at different places. We're going to have to deal with 1) the weirdness of being numerically ranked against one another in about 6 weeks, 2) the fact that some people in the class have jobs that pay $2200 a week, some have jobs that pay $12.00 an hour, some had to work for free, and still others don't have jobs at all, 3) the law review write-on competition starts Monday. All three of these things seem like they're going to stratify the class into different sections... a year ago we were all totally equal, when the dust settles and grades get released, we're going to know just how "unequal" we really are. It really sucks that they have to rank us. I honestly don't think that the people at the top of the class are really any smarter than the people at the bottom. By the time you get to law school you've pretty much filtered out all the people who are "not spectacular" as far as intelligence goes. This curve thing just seems cruel.
