This weekend, I posted many updates to the website. Here are highlights.
Updated Assignment for this Wednesday, Oct. 15. See the email sent out earlier today as well as the Assignments page.
Next week’s (week of Oct. 20) tentative assignment and PJ Big Picture Day. If our room is available for a long session next Monday (Oct. 20), we will hold PJ Big Picture Day. I have posted a tentative assignment for next week on that assumption. See the the Assignments page.
New materials on website. I have posted many new items, including additional past exams, practice PJ essay questions, problem sets on personal jurisdiction, diversity, federal question, and venue, and more. See below.
