Welcome to Bricks on the Brain, a new blog by a UM law student. S/he doesn’t provide any biographical information, but I’m guessing that s/he is not a first year student, and has

• Keen powers of observation. (“Without a doubt the majority of UM Law professors are left-leaning. But usually politics are kept out of the classrooms, and policy issues within the law receive balanced coverage. … Students at UM are very respectful of each other’s political and religious views. With one exception, I have never seen any flyers I felt were objectionable, inflammatory, or in bad taste. For political discussions on the Bricks, civility is the norm.”)

• A taste for interesting questions (“Do private outline banks violate the UM Law Honor Code?”)

• And last, but not least, a good grasp of the obvious (“Professor Froomkin[’s] … blog focuses on politics. He clearly does not like president Bush.”)

One to watch.

Incidentally, on the question about outline banks, I’d be surprised, unless there is a rule against unintentionally passing on mistaken information….
