This week we are addressing a common summer question for those of you entering law school this fall - what do I need for law school???

Physical Items:

1. Tech - a lightweight laptop is a necessity.  Many law students also opt for tablets for note taking, scheduling, planning, and more.

2. Noise cancelling headphones - these are a must to help you concentrate and get through long study sessions.

3. Portable charger - this will ensure that no matter where you are sitting in the library you are charged and ready to go.
