&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;SECOND&lt;/b&gt;: Studying for the bar starts out being fun and gets progressively less fun as the summer progresses.&amp;nbsp; Count on it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;THIRD&lt;/b&gt;: We're going to be starting something new after the bar.&amp;nbsp; It will be different (and not at all UVA Law related).&amp;nbsp; But hopefully it will be cool.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;FOURTH&lt;/b&gt;:&amp;nbsp; A random item - the NY Bar Examiners just sent us a &lt;a href="http://www.visitbuffaloniagara.com/BarExam/"&gt;link&lt;/a&gt; for candidates taking the Bar Exam in beautiful Buffalo, New York.&amp;nbsp; Apparently you can order a box lunch for the not-unconscionable price of 12.99 USD (not including tax), you can get one of a ham, turkey, tuna, or veggie wrap.&amp;nbsp; Excuse, me a wrap?&amp;nbsp; Some of will be lifting during the lunch break, and require a blend of complex carbohydrates and protein.&amp;nbsp; While the tuna is good, I sincerely doubt that the wrap material will provide the 1800 k/cal we'll need to power through 100 MBE questions . . . .&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;FIFTH&lt;/b&gt;: Our rights to this domain expire in a few weeks.&amp;nbsp; We are debating whether or not to pay for another year (costs money) - there probably would be few if any updates, but, there might be some limited historical value.&amp;nbsp; This is a long way of saying that if you see the site disappear, you'll know why.&amp;nbsp; In that event we'll might save a .pdf of everything that's been put up here, on the off chance that you wanted to know how all the various feuds and scandals and intrigues of the last three years came about, you could email us for it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20945908-7665463459126863768?l=www.uvalawblog.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Watch this space. &amp;nbsp;There may be something that comes a long and takes this blog's place. &amp;nbsp;We might link to a new project. &amp;nbsp;But for now - after three years and 517 posts - we're out. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks again, everyone.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20945908-4956195224938231108?l=www.uvalawblog.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
How does this fit in with the &lt;a href="http://www.uvalawblog.com/2010/05/breaking-uva-law-2010-2011-tuition.html"&gt;recently released tuition figures&lt;/a&gt;, which are higher for the c/o 2013? &amp;nbsp;If tuition is going to increase 8.4% for new out-of-state students, how much will a 15k a year scholarship even be worth? &amp;nbsp;Maybe someone who knows numbers could do a Monte Carlo analysis on this puppy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That's all for now (we have a final to take today), but we'll be following this story. &amp;nbsp;Thanks guys.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20945908-6707039809348068893?l=www.uvalawblog.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Razavi, a third-year student at the University of Virginia School of Law, represented inmate Nicholas Omar Tucker at oral argument.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;Tucker had filed his appeal pro se, but his case was picked up by the law school's Appellate Litigation Clinic. Razavi is one of six students who participated in the clinic this year. He and third-year law student Ellen Valentine got the Tucker case in September. Along with Razavi and Valentine, Neal Walters, who runs the clinic, signed the brief.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;Tucker had been sentenced to 15 years under the Armed Career Criminal Act for possessing a firearm and ammunition after committing three or more violent felonies. He appealed that sentence on the ground that his trial-court counsel improperly failed to object to the use of an assault and battery conviction as one of the three violent felonies that qualified Tucker as an armed career criminal. Tucker had pled guilty to only a misdemeanor offense of common-law assault and battery in the earlier case. &amp;nbsp;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://legaltimes.typepad.com/blt/2010/05/virginia-law-student-wins-his-first-appeal-at-4th-circuit.html/"&gt;Keep reading&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;EDIT: Apparently credit should go out to Ellen Valentine as well. &amp;nbsp;DR notes in the comments:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #990000;"&gt;I feel so bad, when the guy interviewed me I talked about Ellen [Valentine] for like, 90% of the time. I'm frustrated that this is how it came off. Ellen deserves as much if not more credit than me - at the end of the day, it was our brief that won it, and she rocked the shit out of it!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #990000;"&gt;Someone from UVA mentioned getting a photo with the two of us (9:26 - that was from a photo shoot like months ago, and the BLT just wanted something I had on my computer) and I think their coverage will be totally more fair. But yes, I wholeheartedly agree with you. ELLEN ROCKS MY SOCKS.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Related:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
A couple of points:&lt;br /&gt;
* 47,500.&amp;nbsp; No, really.&amp;nbsp; When will it end?&amp;nbsp; How can it be that much in a recession with inflation near record lows.&amp;nbsp; We mean... it has to end &lt;i&gt;sometime&lt;/i&gt;, right?&lt;br /&gt;
* Also, we think it's a little unfortunate about how difficult it is to find the cost of attendance on the &lt;a href="http://www.law.virginia.edu/"&gt;UVA Law website&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; You have to go to "Admissions" and then to "Financial Aid" and then there is a tiny link where you can view the tuition and fees.&amp;nbsp; The fact that you are going to pay 3 x 65,700 = &lt;b&gt;$ 197,100&lt;/b&gt; in today's dollars (not counting interest OR the fact that tuition will go up again) should be put more up front.&amp;nbsp; Just our 2 cents, though.&amp;nbsp; And in case anyone is wondering how much that will cost to pay back on a 10 year plan at 6.8% interest (the current rate for Staffords) . . . why it's a mere a &lt;b&gt;$272,188.17&lt;/b&gt;, or 120 monthly payments of &lt;b&gt;$2,268.23&lt;/b&gt;.&amp;nbsp; With all due respect, they should put these numbers - clearly - on the website and in the Law School's advertising materials. &lt;br /&gt;
* That said, kudos to UVA for adopting &lt;a href="http://www.lawweekly.org/?module=displaystory&amp;amp;story_id=2311&amp;amp;edition_id=107&amp;amp;format=html"&gt;what we once suggested&lt;/a&gt;: a multi-layered tuition plan so current students are protected from large increases. 1Ls are paying an additional 2k across the board.&amp;nbsp; Of course, the plan would be more effective if there were more time for 1Ls to find other options.&amp;nbsp; They can still drop out of the &lt;br /&gt;
* The increases are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;For current in-state students:&amp;nbsp; 38,800 to 40,500 = &lt;b&gt;4.38%&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;For current out-of-state students:&amp;nbsp; 43,800 to 45,500 = &lt;b&gt;3.8%&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;For new in-state students (didn't pay last years, but here is the percentage increase)= 38,800 to 42,500 = &lt;b&gt;9.5%&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;For new out-of-state students: 43,800 to 47,500 = &lt;b&gt;8.4%&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;* We're sorry, c/o 2011-2013.&amp;nbsp; Find us at the bars after finals and we'll buy you a drink.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The last day for THIRD-YEARS to take a final is Thursday, NOT Friday. &amp;nbsp;Being slow, we just realized this.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Only first-years can take finals on Tuesday and next Monday morning; no flex exams then. &amp;nbsp;(We didn't realize that either, see above).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We shut down comments where the "bro" meme got out of control - the comments are for relevant conversation. &amp;nbsp;The occasional joke is fine, the brolific posting annoys just about everyone, including us. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Thanks to those who have been leaving nice comments saying how much they liked the blog. &amp;nbsp;That really means a lot to us. &amp;nbsp;We like that you liked it. &amp;nbsp;We're not quite done yet, to be sure, but the end is nigh. &amp;nbsp;At least for us . . . but perhaps not for this site. &amp;nbsp;Stay tuned.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Good luck on your finals. &amp;nbsp;You're may on average all get a B+, but to us, you are, on average, all at least an A- people.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;UVa’s Board of Visitors will meet this week to set the tuition rates for the 2010-11 academic year.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;On the table will be a proposal to raise tuition and mandatory fees by 9.9 percent, or $956, to $10,628 for in-state undergraduate students. Tuition and fees for UVa students from outside Virginia would jump by 6 percent, or $1,902, to $33,574, according to board documents obtained late Friday.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;Next year’s proposed in-state tuition and fee hike would be UVa’s most expensive in seven academic years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;Graduate students at UVa are facing tuition and fee increases that are fairly close to the undergraduate rates.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;In-state graduate students would see their costs rise by $1,242, or 9.8 percent, next year. Out-of-state grad students would pay $1,238, or 5.5 percent, more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;Erin O’Hare, an out-of-state master’s degree student in UVa’s English department, said the university’s tuition is “insane.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;“I have a lot of loans. When I leave here [next spring] I’m going to owe $150,000,” she said. “It’s scary.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Related:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #660000;"&gt;Students who have paid their class dues may pick up caps and gowns during the following dates and times in SL 290, one of the trial classrooms.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;As you &lt;a href="http://www.uvalawblog.com/2009/10/graduation-dues.html"&gt;may recall&lt;/a&gt;, the dues pay for:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #073763;"&gt;The vast majority of the dues (approximately 4/5) pay for events and regalia related to graduation weekend itself. These events include a catered reception at the Law School the night before graduation and a breakfast Sunday before the university-wide graduation on the Lawn. Because of this financial support, students are able to bring an unlimited number of guests to the catered reception at the Law School. Lastly, the dues help purchase each graduating student’s cap, gown, and hood.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #073763;"&gt;. . .&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #073763;"&gt;In addition to funding graduation weekend events, our dues pay for 3L events throughout the year. For example, this week, we will host a 3L Bonfire at Montfair Farms that is open to every 3L student. We’ll be providing transportation to the event and refreshments for students attending the bonfire. Next semester, we will host several more 3L events including a wine tasting tour, golf tournament, and a reception accompanying the Class Charge. In conjunction with NGSL, we’ll also host the 3L Softball Tournament and provide plots and refreshments for 3Ls at Spring Foxfield.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;What happens to any money left over (I ask this because the 3L tournament was canceled)? &amp;nbsp;Does it cover shortfall for other events, and if there isn't any, does it go to next year's graduation committee? Jusssst curious.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;*&lt;i&gt;Editors note&lt;/i&gt;:  Just to clear up - NGSL is not responsible for the planning, scheduling, or cancellation of the 3L Softball Tournament.  The tournament was actually the brainchild of the SBA and any questions/complaints should be directed in their direction.  Even though the event involved section softball - with beer, umps, and the assistance of NGSL members - we apologize for assuming the North Grounds &lt;i&gt;Softball &lt;/i&gt;League, as an organization, was involved in any official capacity.  We thank the Head Commissioner for taking the time to personally call and help point out the errors in this post.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20945908-1483127946976141543?l=www.uvalawblog.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a name='more'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Perhaps of greatest interest was the further fine-tuning of the old and epic "preselect vs. lottery" debate:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote style="color: #660000;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;THE&amp;nbsp;2010&amp;nbsp;OGI&amp;nbsp;SYSTEM&amp;nbsp; &lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The&amp;nbsp;OGI&amp;nbsp;system&amp;nbsp;for&amp;nbsp;2010&amp;nbsp;will&amp;nbsp;have&amp;nbsp;three&amp;nbsp;components:&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;

If you're interested in some of UVA Law Blog's previous writings on this issue from previous years, check &lt;a href="http://www.uvalawblog.com/2008/11/what-ogi-problems-part-iii-prescreening.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; To us, it seems that Career Services has put a lot of thought into striking this balance, and we are optimistic. Nonetheless, some of our tipsters have concerns:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Lots of confusion about whether or not the 'top 5' picks are pre-selected or not. It's a little unclear, but reading the calendar in the appendix I think it's indisputable that the firm picks from the list using GPA/resume. That means it's really a modified 80/20 system, but I hear a lot of people who think it's a modified 60/40 system. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="color: #20124d;"&gt;*The week between preselects + top 5 preselects going out should be awkward&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="color: #20124d;" /&gt;&lt;br style="color: #20124d;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #20124d;"&gt;*When people decline preselects, does that mean MORE than 20% lottery, or will those slots go to pre-selected alternates? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="color: #20124d;" /&gt;&lt;br style="color: #20124d;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #20124d;"&gt;*c/o 2012 now has absolutely no grade information about firms. Nothing vague, no generalities. If we want anything, we'll have to get it from career services 1 on 1. I heard there was a presentation last year laying it out in general terms for each class, it's nervous making not to have even that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="color: #20124d;" /&gt;&lt;br style="color: #20124d;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #20124d;"&gt;*Cover letters for each firm sounds extraordinarily obnoxious, because it takes the firm no effort to allow a custom cover letter, but with 50 bids it could be back-breaking to write 50 coherent ones.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="color: #20124d;" /&gt;&lt;br style="color: #20124d;" /&gt;&lt;span style="color: #20124d;"&gt;*I saw no mention of the maximum # of interviews that can be accepted. Has there been a cap historically? Is there likely to be one this year?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;We think the issue about historical GPAs for callbacks and offers given is especially important in a system whose success relies a lot on students having accurate information.&amp;nbsp; Hopefully, such information will be forthcoming.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The guide itself is 53 pages long and in our humble opinion looks like a great resource for students and a definite enhancement over what has been done in previous years.&amp;nbsp; Especially useful might be some of the appendixes which provide very specific advice on how to handle various interview situations.&amp;nbsp; The document also contains the advice of ten "anonymous 2L commentators" who went through the process last year, which is actually pretty interest. So nice job, CSO.&amp;nbsp; Maybe the Phillies will win the World Series this year - I mean *anything* is possible, right?&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; According to the powers that be, a good deal of credit should also go to current SBA President, Chris Martin:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote style="color: #0c343d;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;. . . Chris Martin, played avery significant role in the creation of this document.&amp;nbsp; It was a meeting with him about how best to present information that led to many facets of this approach.&amp;nbsp; He also assembled the panel that provides the excellent strategy advice that is the core of the document.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&amp;nbsp;So, what are your thoughts?&amp;nbsp;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/20945908-631657214340731161?l=www.uvalawblog.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Some of these people get in line for a Sam Adams Heavy – too early for this kid – and some finger cheeses.  Already few seats left.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2:28 &lt;/b&gt;Random thoughts.  I recognize most of these people, but did not think they were 3Ls.  Considering the robust turnout, maybe they should have had this in the auditorium.  Babies look like work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2:32&lt;/b&gt; No charging yet.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2:34&lt;/b&gt; Intro by L.R.  Usual boilerplate about Jeffries “needing no introduction” (just once I'd like someone to say "he needs no introduction" and sit down). Some  interesting factoids about his time as Dean – he ushered in a self-sufficient law school; high percentage of giving by graduates of the Law School, and one other thing I forgot.  &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2:35.&lt;/b&gt;  Jeffries is honored and intimated.  Honored because we selected him and intimidated because we don’t need advice.  We don’t need advice because we have developed human relationships, have personal responsibility, know how to interact and work within a team structure etc…. I almost looked around for a Powerpoint presentation.  &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a name='more'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2:36&lt;/b&gt; Another thing we have (therefore not necessitating advice) is resourcefulness in the face of a dire job market.  Jeffries opines that in the 40 years he has been affiliated with the law school, no graduating class has had it as bad as we do – an “unprecedented challenge.”  However, he anticipates that things will (slowly) turn around.  I appreciate the empathy.  Perhaps tenured law professors can afford to empathize though.  &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2:39 &lt;/b&gt;Recognizes Lillian BeVier who is retiring this year.  He comments on her excellent teaching and scholarship and then moves on to her civic engagements.  She’s on the board of this and the board of that and a volunteer for this organization – lots of impressive sounding names like “Jefferson” and “St. Anne’s Belfield” and “Legal.”  &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2:41 &lt;/b&gt;Not only does Prof. BeVier have impressive titles, but she also does work for these organizations … for no compensation and early in the morning.  But what makes her really special is her small acts of generosity, kindness, and hospitality.  Turns out she invites prestigious groups (LR; PILA grant winners; women in the Federalist Society) to her house for drinks and dinner.  I wonder what her house looks like.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2:42 &lt;/b&gt;All of this leads to our charge – “if you participate, join in, engage, and invest yourself in the community of which you are a part, you will be happy and you will be loved.”  Not bad I guess – hard to argue with being happy and loved.  &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2:43 &lt;/b&gt;Clapping  &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2:44&lt;/b&gt; Finis  And that's it.&amp;nbsp; Less than 10 minutes in toto.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe I missed the point of a "charge", but I didn't think it was to recognize a retiring (albeit deserving)  professor and harass people who haven't pledged money yet. I was hoping for a fitting book-end to the "you're the most qualified class in the history of UVA Law" speech we got as 1Ls.  You've made an excellent decision to become a lawyer; you're entering an honorable profession; so on and so forth.
