Just checking before I walk over in the rain.

The library is always open...

Sorry, what I meant was: Do we need our IDs to get into the library before classes actually start for some reason?

NeXP · Post by **NeXP** » Sun Aug 22, 2010 11:37 am

I've been in there without an ID.

I need to brave Wegman's today. (I didn't even think about all the undergrads coming back, argh.) Anyone who is carless and wants to make a trip (I have an SUV) PM me, asap.

If anyone doesn't have cable and wants to watch Mad Men tonight, let me know.

Does anybody think we need to bring our notebooks or laptops to orientation tomorrow ?

I think a pad of paper should be fine.

Don't forget about the reading assigned by the academic support people (it is up on blackboard).

Ok, so I'm thinking we should do the fantasy draft at around 1 this Saturday. How does that work for everyone?

oh, wow. I TOTALLY misread that assignment and assumed that "lawyering text" meant it was for our lawyering class. Thanks for the reminder!

tbh, it's just a few pages on the basics of writing a case brief. What sort of stuff you should include in a good brief, and an example of one. I can't imagine there will be a quiz. And it's something you could Google.

The "assignment" specifically says "if possible." My guess is it's just to give us the background for their discussion on briefing-nothing to worry over, and something I'm sure a lot of people won't even realize we had to do...

Not me, I was Air Force not Navy. Good to see another veteran at Cornell.

Hughes people, what gym are you guys planning on going to/what is closest?

I think Teagle Hall and Noyes Fitness Center are the closest. I'm planning on using Teagle, but they have weird hours this week.

Gunners show themselves during orientation lectures. Amazing.

Teagle is the way to go. Noyes is super packed and is mostly for cardio. Teagle still isn't great for a university gym, but it's got almost everything you would need.

Most of those questions were horrific to sit through. I was starving by the end. Btw, this is officially the first time I've used TLS to put off doing law school work! Cheers to the first of many.

Seconded, I guess. TLS and Skype.
