Winter/Spring 2008 Grade Curves and Deviations

It was a big summer for crappy pop music. While most of you were cruising around listening to your iPods and compact discs, I was listening to the radio so you didn't have to.  Granted, this review may contain information that might have been more useful at the beginning of the summer, but no matter.  

Summer Lovin', Had Me A Blast: 5 CFR 2635.101(b)(14)

Every article I've ever read about the law school summer has reflected on the jobs available as ones of extreme cushiness and dubious amounts of work. It gives many folks outside the legal profession the impression that every summer associateship is one of extreme "baller"tude, where debauched law students take their ridonkulous salaries and make it rain (a la Fat Joe) for a few months before eventually embarking on a career path that allows them to make it rain (a la John Grisham) on a more permanent basis. Since no one on CNN/MSNBC/WSTFU seems to care enough about those working in the public sector to write all that much about them, this misconception generally goes uncorrected.
