To the CUbLAWg crowd

I just saw Buffs' post expressing surprise and some concern that OLs have been following their blogs... and I just want to send a heartfelt "Thanks for letting me eavesdrop on the experience!"

Accurate information... the Good the Bad and the Ugly... about Law School is so hard to find, and I think this is even more so true of CU. Your blogs have helped fill the gap (or at least the hunger for info of any kind). So please, don't worry about slamming the school occasionally; it helps me to know that sometimes, I'll feel that same way, and I'll not be alone - and I'll still love the school, as y'all do. Your blogs make me excited with anticipation to experience it myself. Even Professor Hill.

I wish y'all godspeed on your exams (and to the extent they're already done and gone, a good mood on the prof when he/she scores it)!

With two older ladies at the ends of their row, it is almost as though their older cousins were protectively surrounding them.   In this last installment, I present here a closer look at their remarkable lives.

Find-a-Grave 1160127272) Twenty-three year old Dora was Walter’s older sister, born to Joseph Krebill and Selma Magdalena Weber in 1886 near Donnellson Iowa.  Marriage would not be in Dora's future, but family was everything to her. For decades she helped organize and gather her Krebill cousins - descendants o...

  PART 3: Chautauqua -- The Original TED Talk [ 1] Young Adult Mennonite Group Attends Farmington Chautauqua, August 1910 By Elizabeth Hervey Osborn Part 1  --   Part 2  --  Part 3  -- Part 4 -- Part 5 -- Part 6 -- Part 7 -- Part 8 “The most American thing in America,” Teddy Roosevelt supposedly said [2] , was the Chautauqua Movement. Before the days of internet, television, radio, and moving pictures, rural folk had a strong appetite for more knowledge on important cultural, political, and philosophical matters of the day. In the years following the United States Civil War, Methodist church leaders concerned about the quality of adult education organized an annual gathering of Sunday School teachers near Chautauqua Lake, New York, where they brought in the best thinkers and speakers they could find. The gatherings at Chautauqua Lake became an “educational and cultural retreat” for idea-thirsty people of many denominations. [3] Sharp-eyed businessm...

At the turn of the 20 th century more people lived in Farmington [1] than in the county seat [2] sixteen miles upriver, its prominence fueled by the modern electric light plant, woolen mill, pants factories, flour mills, repair shops, coal mines, quarries, and several vinegar and pickle factories, in addition to the general agriculture of the region. [3] Two passenger and freight lines intersected downtown. The Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy Railroad (the “Burlington Route”) served routes east and west. The Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad (the “Rock Island”) ran ...
