In terms of "billable hours" of studying, I'd say I've done a pretty consistent 6-7 hours a day over the last few weeks (including hours I've spend in class).

15 hours? Geez....
I woke up at 1PM. Watched basketball and TV until dinner. Napped from 7-10pm, and then started. I'm terrible.

Definitely how it's been at Penn. Everyone freaked out for like 2 weeks after grades were released, but its been really chill ever since.ImNoScar wrote:Yeah.

I'm having some serious trouble untangling what a liberty interest is, and how it's balanced against state regulation / infringement. If anyone could point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.

It's anything that's not a fundamental right. Assuming you're talking about substantive due process, that means you get rational basis review and the state almost always gets upheld.MauriceGains wrote:I'm having some serious trouble untangling what a liberty interest is, and how it's balanced against state regulation / infringement.
