Doc Review, Is There No End to the Humiliation?

Posted By Cliff Tuttle | July 24, 2012

No. 892

I suspect that most lawyers who participate in doc review projects find the experience, well, not good for the ego.  So here’s a study that says that High School students can do better.  Of course, even geniuses go through high school, so perhaps the sample was not statistically valid.  Then again, there is a chance certain well-motivated high schoolers might find the work interesting.

Attitude is everything, you know.  Many years ago, as my National Guard unit was packing up the trucks to return home, a group of boy scouts arrived, bubbling over with excitement.  They set up camp quickly, expertly, much more efficiently than we did.  For them it was an adventure.  For us it was, perhaps, a humiliation.

Next, will they be experimenting with chimpanzees?
