Heads up that you can get 10% off all book orders of $25+ at half.com; the coupon code is 10BACKTOSCHOOL. Not sure when it expires. Just used this to get a new copy of my contracts book at the same rate the crappy used copies are selling for on Amazon. Woot. :)

Congrats! I imagine you have a LOT of planning to do this week. Had you deposited elsewhere?

On the "what to wear for section photos" question, it looks like you can log in and see what people wore last year here: https://www.law.harvard.edu/current/org ... hotos.html

I think I am going to use these photos as my reference in deciding what to wear. *shrug*

I'd imagine that's specific to each professor, but naturally, current students should be better situated to answer. I know that, at least for Section 3, the syllabus was posted and the readings for the first Torts lesson have already been assigned.

Someone posted it in the Section FB group earlier this week, but it's on MyHLS, then under My Courses. Just checked again, and it looks like the one for Crim is posted too. So, Section 3 is still waiting on the syllabi for CivPro and Property.

I think the login is your HUID and pin but I just logged into like 3 different systems so I forget which was which :/

Hurm, MyHLS doesn't show me as being listed in any specific courses. It just says "Section 1 Enrollee" on the Courses tab page.

ETA: I went to the full listing of iSites and checked each one for my classes (since they weren't directly linked from Helios or MyHLS), and it appears most of my classes haven't posted a syllabus anyway.

Yeah, I think it's actually iSites now that I look at the URL- sorry looking at it from my phone because my work computer is dumb- but the title on the page is MyHLS Courses. Reading comp and general IT fail here :oops:

Nah, thanks for your help. Lord knows it's easy to get mixed up with the seemingly 500 different HLS portals.

Ahhh yes, this. I thought that at one point we'd received a chart that told us what to use for which site but I can't find it anywhere. Does this sound familiar to anybody or am I on crazy pills?

Haha, this doesn't sound familiar, but it sure does sound nice. Maybe this idea came to you in a dream? :D (Or maybe we really were supposed to receive it, and I just don't remember!)

Unless I'm blind or on the wrong portal (likely...) there doesn't seem to be anything up for my section yet.

Pages 1-84? Ew. I'm already not looking forward to that first week. :/
