• Open University

  This is one of The New Republic's blogs. "To the best of our knowledge, this blog is unlike any other out there. It's dedicated to thinking about not just the news of the day but also the news from the academy: Controversies in campus politics that warrant thoughtful discussion. Scholarship from our various disciplines that we think deserves a broader hearing. Ideas we had in doing our research that seem eerily relevant to something we read in The New York Times today. Our bloggers range widely over the political spectrum. They include both novices and old hands."

  Instead, this is a purely personal blog. From time to time, the author may feel compelled to discuss particular topics of quasi-public interest, but such divulgence does not constitute as legal advice and/or sound general advice.
  
  Sometimes a reader or two might confirm, revise, or append to the author’s recommendations, comments, and reflections on specific subjects. Sometimes no one would comment. The existence or lack of comments neither affirm nor nullify the author’s opinions and/or observations.
  
  "In summary:
  
  • If you are looking for legal advice, this is not the place.
  • If you are looking for law school or bar exam advice, this could be helpful, but not necessarily relevant place to look.
  • If you are looking for a funny site, this is the wrong place. There is nothing funny about law school, and the bar exam, for that matter."
