Overheard in Columbia

Right now we’re having a big admitted students event, complete with receptions, panels, free food lavished on fresh young admittees. In Con Law there was a hoard of admitted students sitting in on the class. Today’s readings concern Right to Die. With that as context:

Con Law Professor: Suppose, then, we have a hypothetical college student. His girlfriend just broke up with him, he got a C in a history class, and he’s just realized he’ll never get into a good law school. So what happens if he decides as a result of this to end his life, and he chooses to stop eating and drinking?

On-Call Student: … Well, it’s better than going to law school.
