37. Day 1 (Ask for Collection)
The next day, John found the sign for the school building.
Finding his classroom and looking at the noisy classroom, John picked up his notebook and sat on the empty seat in the back row....
Freshmen in law school are not necessarily fresh graduates from high school, but students from other majors apply. In addition, most of the classmates are older than John. So the young John stands out in the class, which is one of the reasons why John sits in the back row, and another reason is that there is an old man in the front row.......
It turned out that Al Woods was sitting in the front row in a green lady's suit, and the eyes of the whole class looked at her, thinking that she did not belong in this classroom. And as a social expert in her former school, she is not timid at all as a fashion designer....
"Studying law means that you are going to learn a new language, that you are trained to be perceptive to the world around you and to question what you know and who you know. What you have chosen now will not change for the next 9 months, especially for the students in the front row..."
A classmate writes his name on a board...
John's elective, Professor Weir said to the freshmen in the audience with a serious face on the stage, you must know that even if you are admitted to Harvard Law School, it does not mean that you can become a lawyer, but after graduation, you will continue to take the exam, and after obtaining the lawyer's license, you will join a law firm or work alone...
You must know that as a representative doctor and lawyer of the American dream, these two jobs look glamorous, with high salary, high benefits and high treatment, but behind them, they are full of competition and pressure.
Most of the students will be saddled with education loans, and some of them will not be able to pay off until many years after graduation, and Leonard will not be able to pay off his loans for more than 10 years after graduation. You know, he was already an employee of the University of California at that time. Of course, it is also possible that he can pay it off, but he deliberately did it in order to ensure the quality of life (all kinds of comics, figures, comic book tickets, movie merchandise)
Everyone knows that if you become a doctor or a lawyer, your social class will also rise a notch. People are joining both industries.....
Therefore, the hard work and pressure of these two industries are also ranked in the forefront of various types of work...
Professor Weir on the stage suddenly asked a question:
"Law is reason without passion, who said that?"
Everyone wants to leave a good impression in the hearts of professors, knowing that credits are very difficult to take, especially in prestigious schools like Harvard....
Everyone raised their hands, and John thought to himself, "Aristotle"
Aristotle, ancient Greek, philosopher, scientist and educator in Western history. He is famous in the history of the West, a pupil of Plato, a teacher of Alexander...
The professor asked a boy sitting in the second row to answer...
"Aristotle"
"Are you sure?"
Professor Will said intriguingly.....
The boy was a little hesitant: "Yes"
"Will you pledge with your life?"
"I think so"
The boy was a little hesitant...
Professor Will pointed to the other boy sitting in front of him and said, "What about him?" ”
The boy hesitated for a moment.... Saying "I'm not sure"
Professor Will was a little disappointed and said:
"I suggest you confirm before answering"
If in the future, as a lawyer, you don't even confirm what you say, then how can judges, jurors, and clients believe you.......
Professor Weir continued: "There is room for interpretation of the law, but there is no room for self-doubt," and Professor Weir said what he meant...
"What you just said is right, you should stick to it"
Professor Weir continued....
"I think you've all read the textbook and are familiar with the adjudication of major cases. Turn to the first page of the textbook, 48 verses. Who can say about Gordon's case against Steele. I would like to ask the students sitting in the front row to answer."
Professor Will walked over to the table in the front row and asked a bewildered Al Woods....
"Al Woods"
"I didn't know we had to preview the case ahead of time"
Al said hesitantly, thinking that this was not what he imagined. I'm here to renew my relationship with my ex-boyfriend, but I'm not here for real....
Professor Will's face remained unchanged, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Al looked at the professor in embarrassment...
Professor Will walked to the back row and said to a girl:
"Vivian Kensington, do you think it's acceptable that Miss Woods isn't ready?"
Al's current girlfriend, who is Al's ex-boyfriend, hesitates and says "I don't accept it"
It seems that Vivien is not a fuel-efficient lamp
"Then you accept that I will ask her to leave now, so that she is ready to come again"
Professor Will continued to ask forcefully....
It seems that Professor Will is an old-school professor who does not tolerate the laziness of the students in her class...
Seeing this, everyone took a deep breath and thought to themselves that it would not be so easy to get credits for this class in the future...
Vivian said, "I support it."
Al's face changed and he looked at Professor Will to confirm her true attitude......
Helplessly, Al had no choice but to pack up and get ready to leave, but Professor Will didn't forget to stab her in the heart and said:
"Al Woods, do you disagree with my decision?"
Frustrated, Al whispered, "No objections"
After that, he left the classroom.....
Everyone began to listen carefully with their hearts, not wanting to be the next representative to be ridiculed...
John took careful notes and began his first day at Harvard...
The end of class came quickly, John packed his things and prepared to go to the library to check out the materials, and the first day of college passed quickly.....
A few weeks passed quickly, and John was still quite comfortable with his college life, and the time schedule was very sufficient.
John learns that Peggy has returned to Harvard from Europe.
The two agreed on a time when John would come to visit.
After all, as a well-known doctor of Harvard, Peggy, who was only 11 years old at the time, was admitted to Harvard, which was a sensation for the whole school, and he got a special opportunity at the age of 11.
Peggy did not disappoint either, and she also showed her excellence and excellence at Harvard University, where Peggy enrolled in the Harvard Department of Mathematics and received her first Ph.D. a few years later at the age of 14.
For this reason, Peggy also called Sheldon, Sheldon's expression at the time she couldn't see, but considering Sheldon's previous performance, she could know that his face must have twitched.
Now Sheldon is working hard to get his first doctorate, but he was 15 years old by then.
Everyone would be surprised if the average person got a Ph.D. at the age of 15, but Sheldon was annoyed by it....
Regretted how he was a step later than the woman (in his eyes there was no distinction between women and girls).
When John learned that Peggy had returned to China to meet him, John's heart was also pounding, and he was up and down...
Although the two will also contact by phone, but in reality for various reasons have not been able to meet again, the last time they met was in Texas, John sent her and her family out of Texas to Harvard University to enroll...
