Hi everyone. I'm an incoming international student from a country where facebook is not popular at all...I didn't have an account until a few days ago. Would anybody please tell me how to find and join the facebook group of CLS class of 2012? I tried to use the "search" function but couldn't find it.

Thanks a lot! Really looking foward to meeting all of you in August!

If you search for "Columbia Law School Class of 2012" it should come up. It's private though so you have to request to join.

Heya all. Has anyone actually managed to get together yet this summer in NYC? If not, we should plan on something for next week as it is a) supposed to be ridiculously beautiful out; b) as good a time as any. Let me know if there's any interest and we can plan something soon.

I'm nearly 100% positive it doesn't matter what you put down. None of that information is stored. It is just supposed to be an exercise for you to realize the amount of debt you may have in the future.

I move in on the 27th and I'm also down to get together/plan something.

Anyone have a picture of a Lenfast studio they can show me? I want to know exactly what I'm getting into.

Hey guys,

I am an incoming transfer student 2L and I have no idea where to live. I don't really want columbia housing and want to live further south. What would be a cool area to live thats a 30 min or less commute?

So, I didn't realize that the picture we were submitting to AdmitNet was going to be THE picture - the one that would be on the ID card! I thought it was just some cheesy picture for their faux-facebook-like site... Now I'm totally bummed out, because I'm just some weird dude with a mountain in the backdrop. And it's too late to change it :(

Yeah, AdmitNet's kind of a murderer's row... I hope we're all hotter in person!

I already told you - the photo is not a great representation. Not that I'm like a model or anything, but this was like 3 weeks into a backpacking trip.

Spain, Morocco, Italy, Montenegro/Bosnia/Croatia... I think the photo that ended up getting used is from Croatia.

My assigned roommate seems to be doing just as well though in terms of the European traveling... I'm wondering how much stuff to ask him to contribute to his apartment. Do we want to invite other law students to our place? :?

the class description of Law and Contemporary Society on page 11 is pretty funny.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
