Well, guess I really can’t use the bird site anymore. Limiting myself to viewing 600 messages a day is not how I use social media lol. So… where are the #librarians, #lawyers, #lawprofessors, and/or #lawlibrarians hanging out here? Is there an instance everyone’s on?
(And yes I feel dumb for still using it, it’s been obvious something like this was l going to happen for months)
More gold from @ava over on the other website:

And how does the rushed time frame we give students to write notes/comments contribute to this phenomenon?
In updating my research on the rhetoric of "counterfeiting," I'm seeing a lot of what I saw while working on our design patent myths piece: A lot of attorneys and law students citing empirical "studies" or reports without (apparently) checking or even questioning details/validity of those studies.
What role do we have, in law schools, to teach and encourage students to question and critically evaluate these kinds of sources?
