Domestic violence is a type of violence that happens between people who have a close relationship, like spouses, partners, or family members. It can be physical, emotional, or sexual abuse. Domestic violence is against the law and can be punished by the criminal justice system.

I've never been a study group guy in my whole life. Seems like that's the default in law school, though. Idk it's more than a year away for me so I shouldn't even be thinking about this sort of minutia, but like I wonder if study groups are actually tangibly helpful in law school? I bet that majorly depends on who is in your study group, but then they form at the beginning of the year before anybody knows eachother, and momentum just keeps them going even if they aren't great
Nah, the cliques start forming at asd
First round draft picks
Then later ones are lower draft picks
So everyone gets kinda the same peer group in relation to academic ability

I haven’t been much of a group study person either in my educational career. If you’re living on campus it won’t be too bad ; I think it mainly becomes an issue for those who live off campus or commute far
