No Soup For You!

It turns out there is a food index to the legal job market: the worse 1L's prospects, the less likely the CDO will feed them lunch.

This thread is to channel the building speculation about why this spring's OCIP 'lunch talks' have been all talk and no lunch. Is the economy so bad we can no longer afford to buy disposable pans of cheap thai or boxes of greasy pizza? Is hiring so unlikely the CDO is using passive aggressive tactics to discourage attendance, perhaps on a sort of what-they-don't-know-can't-hurt-either-of-us theory?

Please. If our 1L's can't get jobs, then can't we at least feed them? We'd do it for Dean Prosser, and for that be-fanny packed, tooth grinding, book slamming "aumni" who sleeps on the couches in the back corner of the library. Surely we can do the same for the class of 2011.
