Library 2.0 Panel 3, Part 1: The Challenge of Copyright

The Yale Information Society Project (ISP) hosted the Library 2.0 Symposium on Saturday, April 4, 2009, at Yale Law School. The symposium was especially timely as the confluence of book digitization projects, user-generated content, and social networking applications forces us to rethink the role of libraries. Among the topics that were considered: What counts as a library in the 21st century? And how do digital collections and web 2.0 applications create new challenges to copyright, fair use, and civil liberties online? Library 2.0 Panel 3, Part 1 includes presentations from panelists Laura Gasaway, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs and Professor of Law University of North Carolina School of Law, and Jonathan Band, Technology and Law Consultant, Author.

What college is best to attend before applying to Harvard Law and Medical School?

Question by Just wonderin: What college is best to attend before applying to Harvard Law and Medical School?

I was thinking about what college should I apply to be for applying to harvard Law and Medical School. I already know the grade averages the expect. So what college should a person like me attend?

Best answer:

Answer by Dancing D
You always have an inside edge if you are applying to the university that you did your undergrad in, because you have opportunities to work with the faculties of that program. Harvard would be the best place to get into Harvard from, in theory. Ultimately, where you go is a very small thing compared to what you do. A bad applicant from Harvard isn’t going to get in either.
