Law School in Six Words
Inspired by the tale that Ernest Hemingway won a bet that he couldn't write a story in six words by scribbling on a napkin:
For sale: baby shoes, never worn.
The Wall Street Journal Law Blog recounts Marquette Legal Writing Professor Lisa Mazzie's challenge to her students to describe law school in six words. My favorites:
For sale: law degree, no promises.
1L: scared; 2L: burnt; 3L: done.
Law school: my personal debt crisis.
Don’t outsource, let our lawyers work.
"But I’m tenured!’ the professor replied.
My professor is rich. I'm not.
