Dear Amanda, I don't think it is an understatement to say that Law School is not the place to find that special someone, at least not for me. Many of my friends share the same belief. I also hate going out to clubs and bars because it seems only certain types of guys, i.e. one night hook ups, frequent these establishments. I've thought about using internet dating, but it seems too pathetic and I worry about the same typical guys on these sites. Am I missing something or am I destined to be alone my last year of Law School? Sincerely, Stumped

DUE TO THE RECENT deluge of articles, petitions and conferences on the issue of homosexuals in the military, I feel compelled to throw my voice into the fray. First of all, let me say that I am disappointed at how one-sided the discussion has been thus far, and I am disturbed at how sensational Lambda's tactics have been in addressing its concerns.

THIS WEEK, CONGRESS overwhelmingly passed S.3, a federal ban on partial-birth abortion. It was a great event for many conservatives, but a terrible development for many Federalists: conservativism confronted with a fundamental conflict of law and politics.

Dear Interviewer Dude, The Office of Career Services tells us it's unnecessary to write thank you notes after our on-campus interviews, but I wanted to send you a note anyway, to tell you how much I enjoyed our meeting last week and how much I look forward to getting to know more about your firm should I be invited to come and visit during Sell-Out Week. I mean Fly-Out Week.
