It's a morning orientation program at the law school that's followed by a luncheon. I received an e-mail invite a few weeks ago.

I'm assuming the same thing.

[kalvano]

Pretty sure I don't qualify.

kal where did you see the tort syllabus info?

[kalvano]

Under registrar.smu.edu (I think), you'll see an option on the lefthand side of the page that says "course information". It's there, under Fall 2010. No other section 1 professor has anything up.

FYI the address to lone star shipping is 6611 Hillcrest, not 6111 as the first day of class assignments page states.

[kalvano]

Why do we have to purchase a syllabus?

I've never heard of that before in my life.

[UTL_plz]

yea a $10 syllabus at a copy store must be thick.

[kalvano]

Dammit, we're supposed to read a book for legal writing?

It would have been nice to know that a long time ago.

[UTL_plz]

I can tell already. I'm gonna like Crespi a lot.

There's also a paper due.

[Iconoclast]

Bah... refund section of sfSpace is still blank. /sadpanda

I guess the good news is that when I called to make sure there weren't any problems, they confirmed that the aid has been dispursed... so it's just a delay in processing the refund. I guess they figure that us old guys won't starve to death if they process us last

It's a large binder full of course materials.

There is also one that we need to purchase for LRWA from AlphaGraphics. I guess the six books weren't enough...

[UTL_plz]

should we bring anything to orientation?

I don't see that one listed in any of my paperwork. Am I missing something that lists this extra packet?
