Do law students discuss ongoing events in the news ?

when in university do you (they) have open forums/debating sessions on the current news stories about the McCanns and what are the outcomes of these discussions ?
Answers:
NO. Firstly it interupts a tight schedule trying to absorb the basic principles of Law and secondly it infringes on valuable drinking time.
We do have open forums and usually they end up on sarcasm and irony!
When I was reading law at university, I tried to engage my fellow students in topical debates without much success. Most were into their clothes and Big Brother, and I eventually gave up trying.
No. They start training for positions on the Supreme Court very early, and sequester themselves. The albino monk in The da Vinci Code is a lawyer in training. In a few years he will be a judge.
Why bother, when they are the ones who will be manipulating and controlling those ongoing events in a few years.
who knows these days, all the best
