#WhatsInMyBag: This week, we are diving into LLM Samuel Omotoso’s bookbag to discover the essential items he brings to school. 🎒 Those items include his wallet, AirPods, planner, laptop and charger, water, and chocolate biscuits. 🍫 Join us every other Wednesday to see more special guests reveal what’s in their bag!

From small sections to reading seminars, we love seeing the meaningful connections our students form among each other and with their instructors while at Duke Law! 💙⚖️ S/O to Profs. Marin Levy and Jon Petkun for sharing these end-of-semester snaps with their 1L small sections with us, as well as to Professor Charles Dunlap, Jr., who welcomes students into his home for his “Ethical Issues in National Security Law” reading seminar. One small section, now in their third year, has kept the tradition of taking a group photo at the end of each semester. 3L Wenyi Zhou says while they don’t get to see each other as much during the semesters, it’s fun to catch up while taking their photos. We love to see it! Our best to everyone on finals, too! 👍
