You

You have taught me that it is all right to hate people on the basis of their not being able to reach your standards.

That a brilliant mind can get away with an unjust act because it is condoned, if not encouraged.

That it is perfectly acceptable to disregard other people's sleepless nights, calloused fingers, weakened immune systems, and dreams. 

That it is valid to waste people's time by not giving credit to the fruits of their labor.

That the best way to teach others is to punish them for not being enough.

That the right thing to do is to give up easily on the people who are striving and who are in greater need of your guidance.

That it is fair to compare and to treat people discriminately.

That if someone is down, it is wise to push him further to the ground.

That there is nothing wrong with capriciously changing one's mind and deciding to deny others the hope of doing better.

That one should be feared and heartless in order to prove a point. 


This test of character called law school has offered many lessons. Thank you for showing me which ones are rotten.
