I am in this policy class on Regulation of Chemicals, Radiation, and Biotechnology. It's taught by these two environmental lawyers Ashford and Caldart. Law is really weird, though. I was talking with some people, and we think that laws should be computer programs. Seriously, that is the only way we're going to get it to be less ambiguous and also easier to use. There is this problem right now with law in that it's not easy for engineers since you need really strong verbal skills. I mean, mostly, it takes forever to read everything. So you have these humanities people all writing, enforcing, and challenging the laws and policies, and then you have engineers and problem solvers with common sense.
Law, especially administrative law, is wack.
