From the fireplace room to P363
In typical law school fashion, you’re stuck at the school on a Friday night. Except, this time, it’s Valentine’s Day. You have nothing planned and nowhere to go. You’re nervous; your palms are sweaty; there’s vomit on your sweater. Mom’s spaghetti. You haven’t felt this way since the Crim Law exam.
Don’t worry. Next time this happens, feel free to use one of our five best date locations in the law school.
- The Fireplace Room: The historic fireplace provides a sense of class and elegance, and there are enough seats for several last-minute Valentine’s daters to get a spot. Bonus feature: it’s so dark you might even be able to sneakily do work during your date.
- P363: This room is in the far corner of the library, offers a view of two insignificant roads, and has standard tables and chairs. However, it does have frosted windows. That said, it is very much not soundproofed.
- Opposite the Lockers: If you want space and some refreshment, then head to that dingy alcove by the lockers that may or may not have sofas depending on who is visiting the law school that day. Here, you can buy your date a Pepsi™, and rest assured in its quality, thanks to Ben Barrett. You can then demonstrate your chivalry by offering your date that single chair that has the great view of the staircase wall.
- Moot Court Room. If you are feeling bold, you can go into the MCR late at night and set up a movie on the projector. Then, you and your date can enjoy one of the two movies law students are obligated by law to watch (Legally Blonde and The Paper Trail). Any classroom could serve this purpose, but the MCR offers the fastest escape for when security inevitably chases after you.
- The Basement Lounge Area. A small space, apart from the classrooms, with sofas and tables to go around. Why isn’t this the perfect space to spend a date? It is, which is why 9 times out of 10, you’ll be running into someone doing the exact same thing as you. Unless you enjoy awkwardly making eye contact with someone already in the room before doing a tiny nonsensical nod and rapidly walking out of the room, then best to avoid this place.
