That's debatable. The Black Panthers (also pictured in his profile) were certainly racist.

Whatever. Either way in its no way relevant to the thread. Either state which law school you're at or get out.

Good thing I'm only in classes for ~10 hours this year then :biggrin:

That's good, you won't be excited when you get hit with essays, but it is a good course! And naw, I won't have any of that inverse-snobbery here :p:

Oh gawd essays...the thing is I don't mind writing them..as long as I know what I'm writing about, but I have a feeling I'm going to be completely lost lmao.
Pfft how come so few?

Pre-university reading.

Your pre-course reading includes a history of Western Philosophy? :holmes:

I did absolutely no course reading whatsoever before the course and little more throughout the first two years, bar the occasional journal article and selective (read: frantic) reading of the textbooks.

Made your way through any/all of those yet?

What About Law? is a fairly good read.

A slight indulgence :p:

I heard good things about the book so went for the purchase :gah:

I'm hoping to get stuck right in. I have read ... a few pages of one of them. :sigh:

Not had time during Freshers to be honest (or before).

Will check it out, cheers. :yy:

Could be worth it for when you get to Jurisprudence, or if you take Moral Philosophy (or similar Scots law version, ofc).

Yeah, it's an issue. I just decided that, as there wasn't a list from uni, there wasn't any to do. It's worth reading at least the books as you go though - something I wish I'd done. :sigh:

Also, I notice this thread's in your sig too. :h:

Law in Society :holmes:

I still prefer the name Jurisprudence. Sounds better tbh. :colonhash:

Is it too late for you now? Or are you on track for a high grade?

Course :h:

I was thinking of creating a Law Chat thread (to copy the Maths folks :shifty:

) a while back but didn't because the Law forum is relatively :tumble:

Glad someone else took the plunge.
