How to tell your school is too big

I was standing in line at Dulles, waiting for the SuperShuttle that would take me to my new digs at the libertarian party house, when I noticed that the guy standing beind me looked really familiar.

"Do I know you from somewhere?"

He looked at me with a total lack of recognition. Then he noticed my HLS t-shirt.

"Oh, you're from Harvard. Are you a 1L?"

"No I just graduated."

*beat*

"Me too."

So I spent the entire ride to D.C. getting to know one of my classmates: someone I spent the last three years in school with and never spoke to. He's a nice guy. Like me, he's in D.C. for the summer studying for the bar while the 1L significant other works.

550 students per class is just freaking ridiculous.
