The rising 3Ls are trying to work a summer job at the same time as they grade write-ons, and the rising 2Ls are trying to figure out their inscrutable employer's whims, handwriting, or both, while they wait to find out whether they'll be <i>allowed</i> to overwork themselves by writing for a journal. A nice reminder of the doom that awaits is just what the doctor ordered. Law school summers aren't relaxing, but for their variety—each one is a novel form of stress.
