Senior Worn Down by Busy Work, Just Wants to Start Law School Already

Jessa Ray, a senior political science major who is feeling drained by class busy work, just wants to start law school already. According to classmates, Ray has only attended class for mandatory exams and lectures and mentally checks out when present.

“I’m bored with the endless routine of studying and cramming for tests when none of it even feels applicable,” Ray said. She hopes to become a criminal prosecutor after law school but will be enrolled in torts and contracts classes throughout her 1L year.

In pursuit of her degree and minor in English, Ray spends hours a week reading long theses that could be summarized in only a few pages. “It’s such a waste of time,” Ray said. “That’s how I know it’s time to move on and get my J.D.”

In the fall, Ray will be attending Texas A&M University School of Law, which is in Fort Worth so it is totally different.
