Invisibility in Law School

There's an amazing super power law students acquire as soon as they take the honor code pledge. Some may believe it is the power to see through lies (Morgan's kids) but really, it's the power of invisibility.

WELL... at least in our minds we are invisible.

For some reason, we have the ability to be completely anonymous in a crowded classroom. The only individuals who can see through this are the all knowing professors. They have the ability to see through the invisibility shield, making it absolutely impossible for any slouching, cell phone checking, and sleeping to occur. Well, sometimes at least.

Some professors might not have acquired this ability just yet. Or, instead, perhaps this is part of their plan. They know that if you don't pay attention or choose to "zone out" they might have the upper hand in the end.

The invisibility power is another symptom of getting way too comfortable. The most recent example? Reading AND briefing Contracts in Legal Research WHILE sitting in the front row. WOW.
