Does ATT have good coverage in Charlottesvile?

[02082010]

is it possible to obtain in-state tuition after a year?

Nope.

Most of the good state schools require residency for the year before you apply, some the year before you matriculate.

I knew you couldn't qualify for residency at UVA, but I thought Boalt and UCLA would give it to you after a year. Is that not accurate? Admittedly, I haven't really researched it because my GPA is too low for Boalt and I wasn't really interested in UCLA.

No.

On a much more serious topic than housing and tuition, I have a question for the 1Ls. Are there many (organized or pick-up) basketball games among law students? Even though I chose the "beer and softball" school I'm much more of a "beer and basketball" person.

I'm a Zima and tennis kind of guy myself.

[dailygrind]

I'm guessing it might be a bit rarer amongst law students, but does anyone grapple? It'd be pretty sweet if I could find a bjj partner around my size (165).

You must've been devastated when Zima went off the market.

Me, I play bocce ball with an Arbor Mist in hand.

You forgot to pick a drink to go with that.

[HJO]

Maybe some racquetball and a few gin and tonics to follow?

i have no idea what "bjj" means, but i wrestled in h.s. i was a runt 119 lber, but these days i tip the scales at 150.

BJJ = Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

It's a submission martial art.

how do you pronounce Trujillo ? thanks

Since I'm 0L and have not met him, I'm not sure how the Senior Assistant Dean pronounces it, but the typical pronunciation is True-hee-yo. I also knew someone that went by True-hill-o

I met him a couple of days ago, it's the first pronunciation: True-hee-yo. Nice guy. He, Jason Dugas and Cordel Faulk are all Class of 2001, Faulk and Dugas were even in the same small section of 30 people. Now they're doing all the admitting.

As Stringer said, it's the common abbreviation for Brazilian jiu jitsu. I wrestled in HS too, and in college I transitioned over to bjj. I'm not terribly good at it, but my wrestling background helps a lot. If you're interested, there are a few schools in the area and I'm thinking about giving it a whirl when I'm in town.

Why the eyes? I visited this past week, trying to get a feel for the campus and the students. Loved it, had a great time in Charlottesville, and could definitely see myself next year.

Barring an admit at SLS, Yale or Chicago, I think I'll be at one of UVA or Michigan next year.

It's pronounced Truh-hilla and he goes by J Trizzle.

I thought the eyes were cute. It's like wearing glasses.
Congrats on the acceptance. I'm actually leaning more towards UVA next year.
