I'm getting my first glimpse of the 1Ls today.
Right now, I'm studying for my Business Organizations exam in one of the study rooms that we call a "fishbowl" because one wall is made of glass that faces a main hallway. Studying in here can make you feel a little exposed, but it also lets you people-watch.
Orientation for the 1Ls begins next week, and the little overachievers are here buying textbooks today. So far, they don't look as scared as I felt in their position, but then again, they have no idea what's coming.
(How, you might ask, do I know who the 1Ls are? The law school has fewer than 500 students in it, so it feels a little like high school. If you don't know a non-1L person, you definitely recognize them. All the rest are 1Ls. Plus, the 1Ls just look too young and hopeful to be 2- or 3Ls.)

having some fresh meat is always exciting
I met a 1L in a bar this summer, who was very drunk and clueless. I met another 1L at a 4th of July party who wanted to argue with me about what law school was like - despite having yet to matriculate. They were both bleach blonde. I was not impressed with either.
That wouldn't surprise me if you go to Alabama, coming from a T5 Northern school, I have to say our incoming crop of freshmen girls are very promising
