What were the books used for 1L fall semester? I'd like to start looking for bargains cause they all seem so expensive. I understand we have to take Torts, Civil Procedure, Contracts, Criminal Law, and Legal Research and Writing. I know different professors use different books, but could you give me whichever ones you know of?

You should wait until you find out what professors you'll have. I don't believe any of the 1L classes use the same books. If you're interested in saving money, you could go to the WLSA bookroom during orientation -- they sell used books for cheap, along with supplements.

Well hey there, Necro. I'm sure your 9 month late reply was helpful to the person who asked the question.
