Nothing says Halloween like scary stories about your 1L year! Students from Loyola share stories about their 1L nightmares – the scary, crazy, embarrassing, or super stressful things they experienced during 1L that STILL haunt them to this day. From final exam blunders to real-life crime scenes, hear about some of the crazy scenarios that law students dealt with during their first year of law school, and how they managed to bounce back from those situations to succeed in law school. Additionally, we’re including a list of resources available to law students from Loyola and beyond to assist in dealing with any of their own personal nightmares they may experience during law school.
