Indeed, it was great meeting everyone. The Paper Chase on Saturday is definitely going down... somewhere.
x2. If the group tonight is any indication of the quality of the rest of the student body, we're going to have a great three years!

Just got back into town. I'd be down for drinks in the next few days if anyone else is.

Also, feel free to enlist me for moving help. I've got a decent sized car to haul stuff around.

I'm free tomorrow evening. Who else is interested in hitting the bar?

Of course, everyone's welcome. Feel free to bring along any other students you know. Jerome, where and when do you want to meet up?

I'm available any time after 7 or so. As for bar, I'll defer to others' judgments, so long as the bar in question serves cold beer. That written, I like Blue Moose, and Short's was pretty decent. I am no expert.

Looking forward to getting to know y'all.

I may come out with you guys for a bit, although I have that stupid internet class at 8:00AM on Friday so I probably won't stay out TOO late.

Blue Moose appears to be credited, and the Mill was pretty good, too. I'm up for whatever though, there are a billion bars out here so I'm always up for trying somewhere new.

EDIT: This was posted in the Employment forum, but I figured I'd pass it along here for anyone who is also interested in the Chicago market, or the legal market in general, I suppose.

How does 8:30 at the Blue Moose sound then?

That article is mighty reassuring, thanks for the link.

The community service assignments are available on ICON. I'm at the Hickory Hill Park, don't recognize anyone else in that group.

FYI: Internet Class = Listen/Watch a powerpoint presentation about UIOWA Law online services and setting up accounts for westlaw and lexis. Its pretty mindless.
Laptop best uses class = get a book and DIY wireless setup and antivirus download. Also pretty easy.

Just got in today. Can't join you guys tonight--hanging with the 'rents who were generous enough to drive me and my belongings to town. Can't wait to meet up with everyone though!

Oh, and I got North Liberty Pantry.

If you're interested in drinks and a viewing of the Paper Chase, meet at 915 Oakcrest St. Apt. #1 at 8PM Saturday. It's about 1/3 mile from Seville. Bring your own beverages please. We'll probably head down to the ped mall afterwards. Call/text me at 503-887-8713 if you have questions or need a ride.
