It's harder than I thought to get back into the swing of things, I'd gotten so used to not posting every day. Now, of course, the pressure is back on, and I clearly haven't readjusted. But there are lots of things to write about, so it shouldn't be too hard, or so I try and convince myself.

I'm still diligently studying for the LSATs, held on September 29th, and am beginning to put together my prospective application package. Any and all advice on this process is welcome, as I'm clearly a neophyte. I haven't been able to completely break with character this last month, and spent much of my free time researching data on Indian and other "underrepresented" minority attendance in law school, running stats and coming up with a few theories, some of which I'll probably present as time and studying allow.

So, who thinks that Craig will be replaced by Kempthorne? Initially, I thought there was potential for such a move, but then Bush would end up with one more Senate confirmation hoop to jump through, and with the Cobell v. Kempthorne trial slated to begin in only a month, I don't see that happening. Of course, if Kempthorne went to the Senate, Bush could just appoint Sansonetti acting Secretary, since it was Tom who put all the cronies into their positions in the first place, six years ago, as Transition Team head. It should be an interesting week.
