Spring 2002 Exam Schedule. The final exam schedule for the current semester is linked to this page. Room assignments for exams will be posted in the main lobby at a later time. If an emergency occurs that may prevent you from taking a final exam, you or someone on your behalf should call Chris Matheny (312/906-5271) or me (312/906-5282) as soon as possible. If you cannot reach either of us, call the Registrar's office (312/906-5080 or 312/906-5684. Please read Section VII of the Student Handbook, which contains the rules governing exams, exam conflicts, make-up exams, missed exams, and related issues.; and review Article II of the Code of Conduct in the Student Handbook.

Availability of Professors' Old Exams. Many professors make their old exams available for students to review. Exams dating from 1992 and before are bound in volumes available in the 10th floor reading room in the Library. Exams after 1992 are available online bygoing to http://www.infoctr.edu/studentservices.html, clicking on Exam Database, and then clicking on the link indicated there.

Fall 2002 Class Schedule and Registration.
The preliminary schedule of classes for Fall 2002 is available outside the third floor cafeteria; an online version is linked to this page. The Registration Bulletin and final class schedule will be distributed on Thursday and will also be available on the Student Portal page.

To register, go to the Student Portal page and click on the Online Registration link. You can use any computer with Internet access, either inside or outside the Law School. Registration will take place starting next Wednesday, May 1 and will continue through Monday, May 6. You may register at any time during that period. After the end of the registration period, the registration requests will be processed according to each student's registration priority. In other words, registration will not be conducted on a first-come, first served basis; as long as you register during the designated period, you will have an equal chance of being admitted to a class as other students with your registration priority group.

To learn what classes you have been admitted into, you must check the online registration site on or after Wednesday, May 8. Registering for a class during the initial registration period is no guarantee that youwill be admitted to the class -- you must check the online registration site on or after Wednesday, May 8 to learn what classes you have been admitted into.

I will hold meetings with first-year students on Monday, April 29, at 11:30 a.m. (Day Division students) and 5:15 p.m. (Evening Division students) in the Auditorium to discuss course selection for the Fall and suggestions for planning your legal education. If you are unable to attend one of these meetings, please feel free to contact me by e-mail (SSOWLE), phone (906-5130), or by stopping by my office (320C). Upper-level students with comments on the preliminary schedule should also feel free to contact me.

Corrections to the preliminary schedule:
(1) Prof. Stewart's section of Constitutional Law will meet 9:15-10:30 a.m. (not p.m.) on the days indicated in the schedule. (2) The day section of Evidence taught by Prof. Baker is worth 3 credits, not 4 credits. (3) Commercial Law: Payment Systems will be offered on Tues./Thurs. (not Mon./Wed.), 8:00-9:25 p.m.

Joke of the Week.
Did you hear about the ship that ran aground with a cargo of red paint and black paint? The whole crew was marooned.
