Contest Winner

We received a lot of submissions for the "Why my law school sucks the most" contest, but the following one takes the cake. The writer wished to remain anonymous, but it's pretty easy to figure out what school they are talking about.

-We pay more tuition for a worse reputation. ($39,000/year for a 3/4 tier school).
-The building sucks something awful...The library books are being boxed up because the school is about to redo the whole building.
-The name of the school sounds like the name of one of the top 10 schools. Everytime I tell someone where I go, they act all happy and say, "Oh, that highly ranked law school just below Stanford, right?" and I have to meekly say, "No, that's another school. I go to the one that no one's ever heard of."
-The electrical outlets in classrooms and the library all suck. I'd say only about half of the outlets work, and people get very possessive over them. so much so that they unplug other people's computers without saying anything.
-The exam proctors all have a giant stick up their asses. They are the same for every exam: an old guy with a hearing aid and a fat guy who demands silence 30 minutes before the exam begins.
-There are remedial classes that the bottom third of the class is forced to take after the first semester.
-They'll keep you on for an extra semester if you are in the bottom 10% of the class.
-There are only three elevators that go past the fifth floor so that people wait in a line to get upstairs.
-The school is composed of three attached buildings that only connect on the first and fifth floors.
-There aren't enough seats in the big classes.


I'm still laughing about the "special ed" classes you have to take if you are ranked low. That shit's hilarious. Do they have to wear helmets too?
