How to Pass Judicial Process

Step 1: Watch an ass-ton of Law and Order. Do not read your textbook.

Step 2: Never complete even one reading assignment. Instead, skim the section subtitles.

Step 3: Do not begin a paper until less than 48 hours before the due date.

Step 4: Do not participate in the field trip; do not make up those points.

Step 5: Write two really shitty papers about juries; never make clear whether you are talking about civil or criminal juries, because you don't know the answer to that question.

Step 6: Generally ignore calls to "get into groups."

Step 7: Decide halfway through class that criminology is worthless, corrupt, and pretty much just a bunch of dumb bastards deciding the best way to deal with unemployed black men in cities larger than any they will ever visit. Decide that if these people died slowly, that you wouldn't really care, because the best case scenario for their life is being a criminology professor. Decide that law school will make you be friends with only these people; decide that law school sounds shitty.

Step 8: Check grade, get A-.

Step 9: Make list.
