More like kicked out because I did not like the attitudes towards survivors/victims of crimes in law schools and law libraries in the US but things have changed partly due to my really making a big stink and drawing everyone I could think of into the fight. I based my criticisms on my own experiences trying to help my fellow Earl Wooster HS (Reno, NV) students deal with murder investigation of some of fellow students connection with an English teacher whose daughter was murdered on 2-24 in 1976 near the University of Nevada, Reno. This was not "solved" until 1979. The murder was covered very heavily in the Northern Nevada press. 2-24 is also my birthday. And not for NOTHING.
I was in with probably the most powerful group of law librarians in 1991. I lost the kind of game of thrones. I wanted to put survivors/victims of crimes on the throne so to speak. No two victims/survivors of crimes I have talked to are the same though. But I really wanted to get them the most practical information available to make them the most educated and well connected they could be.
There have been a lot of changes since 1991 though.
