More Proof that Law School Grades Alone Do Not Define Us

posted by Grant

Ladies and gents, I have recently returned from a couple weeks in Honduras.  I did some construction at a medical clinic, distributed food and clothing, and got to make some new friends.  My time there really opened my eyes to a lot of things, but most importantly it was a fantastic reminder that there are things in this world much bigger than law school and especially my law school grades.

Check out this great NY Times article about Elena Kagan's (President Obama's Supreme Court nominee) B- in her first-year torts class.  The title itself should strike a chord with anyone who has endured the stresses of first-year, first semester grade-checking.
