Lol'd at the donation from:
"parent of a 2L transfer (vamos ariba la celeste!)
donated$20.00"

I also saw that Avon Barksdale donated from beyond the grave.

A "Kale Salad" gave $10. Maybe he sold the black tupperware container on ebay.

ETA: It's up to $900+. Dude could buy a pretty decent PC for that.

Are we just simply rewarding carelessness?
Now no one will care about where they leave their laptops. And thieves would do it more often since they will know that the victim is insured by the goodwill of the student body.

Dude, no one wants to have their laptop stolen, even if other people will help them replace it. Also, school should be a place where people feel safe leaving things for a few minutes. Don't be a dick.

I am fairly certain that is was supposed to be a joke/sarcasm and just fell flat.

I can confirm, this was a very lame joke....

haha, sorry. With law students, you just never know...

-You can look back and read past email without a network connection. [gmail can do this]
-You can manage multiple email addresses at once (especially if not all are gmail-based). [gmail can do this]
-I know you can switch between Gmail inboxes, but if I'm logged into my school email and want to switch to my personal one, I ALWAYS have to re login. [this is just weird, and doesnt happen for me]
-You can start writing an email and decide which email to send it from at any point. [gmail can do this]
-You have the full capabilities of Office when writing an email. [actually cool, if it means I can throw some excel tables in]
-I like the calendar better than Google (although my google and Outlook calendars sync) [meh]
-You're probably going to have to use Outlook at work for the rest of your life. Might as well get used to it (and I'd already been using it for a decade+). [fight the good fight]

Yes, Gmail does some of these too. But I prefer the way outlook deals with them, overall.

meh.

People keep looking at me funny just for browsing porn in the library without headphones on...that seems like a problem

[rinkrat19]

Unrelated: I think I'm going to put some LoJack or similar software on my laptop.

It's probably a better use of your time than whatever else you are doing, but not as useful as GTM.

I thout it was useful, particularly if your APEX people had your profs.

[crumpetsandtea]

I thought it was super useful because I literally had no idea what an issue spotter exam looked like until I took it.

[dstars823]

sweet thanks guys, guess ill have to slave away at the memo another night.

Hey look the wifi is down again and our atrium is being turned into a ballroom again...this is the price we pay for only increasing tuition by 3% a year. Not worth it.

We just need another laptop going missing to complete the trifecta.

At least the wifi appears to be back up...FOR THE MOMENT.

It's pretty neat that other guy found where his laptop is. Since the listserv isn't working, he should go knock on that door and ask for it back.

What's that neighborhood like?

I wonder if he reported it to the police.
Sometimes cops will take the owner's LoJack info and go investigate, but I don't know if Chicago cops will do that.

If the cops will not do it, let's all go together. Help a NU bro out...

Atrium/Harry's expansion looks ok, although I don't understand which part of the Atrium I'm looking at in that 2nd picture. But yuck, construction.

Do the ITP groups typically fill up with 3Ls and LLMs, or is there a good chance for 2Ls to get in?

[Georgia Avenue]

Just bid enough points. Plenty of 2Ls do ITP. I think one trip last year was entirely 2Ls.

Where does bidding come into it? The registration page just has you rank the trips from 1 to 4 in order of your preference, and says they all cost 100 points.

And there's a list of lottery precedence: 3Ls who haven't done ITP > LLMs > 2Ls > 3Ls who have done ITP > visiting JDs

That is not how ITP signup works. Also, last year there were many many more ITPs. This year there are four. So last year isn't a good example. I bet this year there will be people who want to go who can't.
