The First Week of Class
I do a lot of things, but there is one primary job that is more important than all the others: I go into a classroom and teach students about the law, and the people who are affected by the law. It is an incredible pleasure to be able to do that, a dream come true, and the first week back in class is like a holiday to me.
It's a particular kind of holiday, too: It is the start of the new year. That first day of class is the breaking point; my heart runs on an academic calendar. There are new challenges, a new start, a new group in front of me. How exciting is that?
This is that week.
