Great advice in this article, @OrinKerr. It’s a great resource for new law students.

If you're starting law school next month, you might be interested in my guide for how to read a legal opinion.

Congrats @LadyLegalWriter. I’m looking forward to reading your piece.

[Megan E. Boyd @LadyLegalWriter]

I’m a little late posting this, but I won a grant from LWI, ALWD, and LexisNexis to work on a cool article I’ve been kicking around!

[Kate Brem @BremKate]

@ProfessorAtkins @ukcollegeoflaw Exciting times, Tiffany! Good luck with the move.

Third year law students are in the home stretch — getting geared up to begin their careers as practicing lawyers.

Every year around this time, I try to share 10 important lessons I ultimately learned, but wish someone had taught me before I started my legal career: 🧵👇

[Kate Brem @BremKate]

This is just an excellent thread. Thanks to all for this thoughtful advice. I hope my students are paying attention!

[Orin Kerr @OrinKerr]

Lawyers: If you could give advice to a current law student about the practice of law -- some real advice about lawyering that they can actually use in their career, and that they probably don't yet know -- what would it be?

Thanks for this @JoshHanson1530. This is advice I always share with my students. It’s nice to have the data to back it up.

[Josh Hanson @JoshHanson1530]

This semester (2L), I started using @toggltrack to track EVERYTHING I did for law school, whether that was class, reading, office hours, outlining, etc. Clinic was by far the most demanding, but I generally got through with about 40 hours of substantive "work" each week.

[Association of Legal Writing Directors @ALWD_tweets]

The new ALWD Online/Distance Learning Committee, chaired by Profs Kate Brem & Chris Rollins, moved quickly this Spring/Summer to create an incredibly helpful free resource for #legalwriting profs called "Teaching LRW in a HyFlex Classroom." Access it here: https://t.co/iEI9IiR9ua

[Kate Brem @BremKate]

@kvukadin @dandrashu Add me to the list. And congratulations!

[Kate Brem @BremKate]

Such great advice from both @happygolawky and @Jeharrislaw for first-gen 1LS (really all 1Ls). Definitely worth the read.

[Deeva Shah @happygolawky]

This thread contains some great advice for first-gen 1Ls.

Here are a few other thoughts/pieces of unsolicited advice. 1/

Thanks for the Zoom pro tip @RachelGurvich

[Rachel Gurvich @RachelGurvich]

Profs teaching w/Zoom this semester who also use PPTs: download the latest Zoom update. Then you can select "use slides as a virtual background" & it makes your video a part of your PPT (rather than having your students need to manage two separate windows + shrunken slides).
