Confidence of 1L Gunner, 23: No one is sad
The Confidence of a 1L Gunner died on January 25, 2012 upon the release of grades. Confidence was not well understood and often disliked by his peers. No one really misses him that much.
Most people happy that he’s gone because now classes can actually consist of the professor teaching and students asking questions about things that they don’t understand, not just quoting from the treatise to sound smart when the exam is anonymous anyway.
Some students feel a little bad dancing on Confidence of a 1L gunner’s grave, but at the same time is happy that professor doesn’t have to listen to any more of those stupid questions.
Quesada Mexican Grill, 12: Horribly missed. Like, so Much
After a long-fought battle with the real estate condo bubble in Toronto, Quesada – know to its friends as “the burrito place” – gently succumbed earlier this year.
Hordes of University of Toronto law students, not knowing of Quesada’s impending doom, were shocked to see its demise earlier this year. Ever proud in its service and honour, Quesada never let its inevitable death affect its noble distribution of bean-filled tortilla deliciousness.
Until the last sale, Quesada supplied steadfast joy to law students. It is fondly remembered for offering a meal that doesn’t make its patrons completely hate themselves later on, supplying not horrible service at a modest price, and allowing its patrons to have both types of beans.
Until the final stages of its death, Quesada was still serving burritos that were pretty good for the cost, even if the shrimp burrito was way too expensive for shrimp.
Quesada is survived by its twin brother at King and Church and that Burrito Boyz place near Spadina.
2L Liberal Values, 24: Death was inevitable anyway
For 2L Liberal Values, it was a slow and acquiescent demise. Ever since her diagnosis of a 173 on the LSAT, 2L Liberal Values faced her fate with dignity. She finally passed away on Call Day.
Knowing that she would have a year, maybe one and half at best, 2L Liberal Values made sure that her little remaining time would be valuable. In addition to raising money to assist aboriginal families, she volunteered at a legal clinic to help low income workers fight their WSIB claims. She was respected throughout school as a “bleeding heart” and known for her comments refuting the application of Law and Economics to Property law.
Nevertheless, 2L Liberal Values faced her death with poise and nobility. In the face of her still-at-large murderer, OCIs, she did not confound the process screwing over her host. Instead she took her demise as the inevitable end she knew it was when she was admitted into Law School.
In remembrance, her family asks that 3L take at least some human rights law.
