3L Officially Begins

Today was the first day of classes, but I only had to dip a toe into school life. I had one hour of class today and won't be back at school until Monday.
One hour isn't much to judge by, but so far my Federal Income Taxation professor seems like the best kind of professorial cliche: rumpled suit, oversize glasses, waving arms, quirky vocal delivery. He was a very entertaining lecturer (he has obviously had plenty of practice--he was reading from a stack of notes so yellowed and brittle that they might have predated the income tax itself). Here is (approximately) the line from his introductory lecture that I thought was pithiest: "Everyone supports tax reform. Saying you support tax reform is like saying you support justice. It's just a question of one's definition."
