I don't even see this future interests stuff on my property syllabus. I wonder if we're not covering it since property is a 3 credit elective and only meets twice a week...

Some professors dont bother with it

if they're afraid of the common law.

There was an actual court case (I think CA supreme court) which ruled that RAP was so complex you couldn't sue an attorney for malpractice if s/he got it wrong

you scared of the common law, bro?

The only thing I fear is fear itself.

They're fantastic for property. Future interest is a separate set, by the way

property, the last of the fabled common law trilogy.

Random Question for CSWS crowd: I've met with most of my Fall professors to go over my exams (both that I did well and ok on), and the one comment I've heard from all of them is that my answers don't fit together as a coherent whole and that the different parts of each answer seem to be free floating and scattered.

1. I get what the means in the abstract (the answers didn't flow together), but really, what the fuck does this mean?
2. How do I fix it?

I don't know what that means. I know that I proceeded through questions in a component-by-component manner but at the end I tried to draw it all together with a conclusion synthesizing quickly the findings of each componential analysis into a coherent whole.

Honestly, it sounds like a throwaway answer they can give anyone to explain the grading.

Yea, I thought that might be the case, but it's puzzling that multiple professors who spent 30-45 minutes going over my exams with me in detail would all make the same non-substantive comments. Very odd.

They are just training you on becoming a good prof.

This.

My answers were terribly organized. Profs will tell you they want organized answers... but they don't actually care.

How does one study for conlaw when half the cases are 2011/12 and therefore no outlines exist? Actually read the cases or still just go over the same principles found on every other outline ever?

At least it wasn't the 7th Circuit and the shenanigans of Easterbrook and Posner.
