What size bookbag should a law student use? I go to a low TT school-- I dont know if that would change the size of the load we'd haul to class everyday. I do not plan on using a school locker because they seem inconvenient at my school.

Remember that the amount of textbooks used is directly proportional to the ranking of the institution.

Take a look at the larger North Face backpacks. They are very comfortable. The Surge is a good one.

I am attending Hofstra. Please continue backpack suggestions. I do not want to squander money on something I will end up replacing. I want to invest in a good bookbag.

Invest in a school that actually gives you a good chance at a legal jerb.

I think he was being facetious.

You will for sure want a rolly one. This has already been brought up in other threads.

High quality. Made in 'mericuh. Very much a quality product that I highly recommend. I bought the brain bag a year ago, and it is easily the best backpack I have ever owned.

I have a regular longchamp in undergrad - and I guess that's not sufficient for law school?
I am a physics major as an undergrad, but I guess I don't carry much other than my computer.

Are they really worth that much money? Seems steep for just a backpack.

Bring your books with you and go to a store of your choice. Put the books in the backpack. See how it feels. Buy the bag you like.

No one gives a sh!t about your backpack. It does not affect your grade. Your professor will not care. Most other students will not care. If they do care, well...consider it a sorting device for people worthy of your friendship.

Also, 'seeming inconvenience' is a lame excuse for not checking out lockers. Laaaame. Get off your ass and go check it out instead of waving money at the problem.

I think so. Top-notch protection for your laptop and nice straps/zippers/etc made to carry the kind of load law school books can add up to. Also, good water resistance and tear-stop fabric.

How much do you spend on things you rarely use? You'll carry this daily for three years and trust it to protect a laptop.
