I think I barely beat Soup for the time contest. But I don't want the drink ticket anyway. Congrats soup! I'll give it to you on the boat.

Re: Chicago Class of 2014
So your section is whatever section # they list for LRW, right?

Yes but sections have letter names. So section 01 of LRW is "Section A," then 02 was "Section B," etc.Bildungsroman wrote:So your section is whatever section # they list for LRW, right?

Re: Chicago Class of 2014
Thanks soju
So just to clarify, my section #/letter is whatever is next to my LRW? For some of the courses I have a section # that is different from the one next to LRW. Does that just mean that my section and that section will be combined for that particular class?

Re: Chicago Class of 2014
Partially correct. In terms of figuring out your section, you just take the number of your LRW class and assign it the corresponding letter in the alphabet.soupisgood wrote:Thanks soju

The section "numbers" though don't mean anything beyond that. They only exist for the class registration system to differentiate between one class being offered at two different times. So each 1L class will be either section 1 or section 2, but that has nothing to do with your Bigelow section. All that means is there are two of the same class offered and the registration system needs a way to tell them a part. Did I explain that in a way that makes sense?

Can someone please kindly forward me the reading assignments for the bigelow section on Monday? I guess my name was not on the maillist and it takes them forever to fix it. THX!

Re: Chicago Class of 2014
I also have early morning classes. Does anyone remember a post describing some of the Chicago professors? I feel like I read something like that at some point on TLS. I'm curious what the word is on my profs!

Which section are you in? An awesome 2L gave me a brief rundown on most of my profs, and I'd be happy to PM you the details.

This link is for the books, for those interested.

Only my contracts course has the book list set up yet.
FYI, ~same~ price for a new version on amazon as a used version from the bookstore.

Re: Chicago Class of 2014
I found that my books show up on BN. Question: anyone know what "Bookstore recommends" means? There are supplements recommended for a number of my classes, but I can't tell if it's the supplement chosen by the prof or if it's just some random supplement that the bookstore has decided they can get me to buy based on the course title.sojuteacher wrote:This link is for the books, for those interested.

Re: Chicago Class of 2014
I'm not sure. I'm not going to buy supplements until I know whether or not the prof him/herself is recommending one.hurricane wrote:I found that my books show up on BN.

I just ordered the required books for Civ Pro and Elements on Amazon. I may get my other ones on Amazon as well.

Re: Chicago Class of 2014
Bookstore recommends seems to be just that... nothing to do with the prof (as far as I can tell).
My LRW section had required and recommended books that were not merely store recommended. I think it's just B&N trying to fool you into spending more money there.
Well jokes on you B&N because you almost made me spend extra on Amazon.

I know we should be buying used books, but is anyone finding the lawanounce emails totally overwhelming? I feel like there are so many that I will probably end up pursuing none of them!
