Did anyone here apply for the Patino Fellowship? I am wondering when they are going to let us know if we made it to the next round or not.

Have they assigned y'all into sections yet? I don't remember when it happened last year. If a section gets Baird, Strauss and Levmore at once, count your lucky stars.
Haven't heard anything about our sections yet. The August email made it sound like we'll find out in September. Would any of you be willing to give us a rundown on what to expect from some of the 1L professors?beepboopbeep wrote:For the sections that get out at noon TF, not too bad.elterrible78 wrote:Wow.

Strauss - awesome, cold calls are a breeze. Reading doesn't matter much in this class, he'll tell you the little nuggets you need to know for the examDetectiveStabler wrote:Haven't heard anything about our sections yet.

I agree with basically 100% of this, excluding profs I didn't have.Mal Reynolds wrote:snip
I'll give it a go for the ones I had, and word-of-mouth from my classmates for the others (this definitely has the potential to devolve quickly):DetectiveStabler wrote: Haven't heard anything about our sections yet.

Thanks!Robb wrote:On the c/o 2016 FB group someone made a spreadsheet based on the professors' pages. Here's a copy: http://files.mylsn.info/files/C635VvS3fi.xlsx
I'd like to give that person credit, but I think they wouldn't very much appreciate me posting their name to TLS. If you'd like to see who made it, feel free to join the C/O 2016 FB Group
I had Helmhotz 1L year. Unlike Levmore/Henderson, the lucky class that gets him has him for both quarters. I don't even want to write a description - it's better to find out for yourself. LOL is pretty accurate. There is a supplement that is basically required, but cross that bridge later. My favorite part is when he told us the week before the exam that it would be closed-book no notes. Wahoo!DetectiveStabler wrote:Thanks for the responses! They were definitely helpful.
Since Helmholtz is listed as teaching property during the winter and spring quarters, does that mean that half the class will have him both quarters? Or do the sections switch professors?
...Clearly i'm concerned.
and for the record, plenty of people fly out immediately after Elements and do the Civ Pro take home away from Chicago.Robb wrote:Fall exam schedule for those who want to plan winter flights: http://www.law.uchicago.edu/files/file/ ... hedule.pdf
Looks like your in-person exam is on December 11th (Elements), then you have a take home on the 15th (Civil Procedure).
You could do what I did and ignore their advice.lawschool2014hopeful wrote:Hey guys, regent said i need to get renters insurance and referred me to statefarm, i am just wondering is there a cheaper option out there?
