Case Reading Topic 3: Find Your Inner Purpose

Welcome to The Law School Playbook!  I’m Halle Hara, a professor of academic success and personal skills coach to law students and attorneys.  I’m glad you’re here!  My goal is not only to change if you read but also how you read for law school.  For instance, you may be reading for class because you don’t want to be embarrassed if you are called on or want to cross the assignment off your always-growing “to do” list.  When reading experts instruct you to read with a clear purpose, however, that’s not what they have in mind.
