A quick definition of BCIA:

Term: BCIA

Definition: BCIA stands for Berne Convention Implementation Act. It is a law that helps protect the rights of creators of artistic works, such as writers, musicians, and artists. The law ensures that their works are not copied or used without their permission. This helps to encourage creativity and innovation, and allows artists to earn a living from their work.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: BCIA stands for Berne Convention Implementation Act. It is a law that was passed by the United States Congress in 1988 to implement the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works.

The Berne Convention is an international agreement that sets out the rules for copyright protection of literary and artistic works. The BCIA was passed to ensure that the United States complies with the Berne Convention and provides copyright protection to foreign authors and creators.

For example, if a French author writes a book and it is published in the United States, the BCIA ensures that the author has the same copyright protection as an American author. This means that the author has the exclusive right to reproduce, distribute, and display their work in the United States.

The BCIA also provides for criminal penalties for copyright infringement, which means that someone who violates a copyright can be fined or even sent to jail.

I told my family I won’t get any decisions until 2025 so they wouldn’t bombard me hahah
no i think there should be a Law School combine with all new drills except there is still the 40 yard dash
and a sub 4.5 gets you into any t14
LSAT can be one of the drills
letsseehowitgoesnow
11:17
so washu only called one person
So all the D1 athletes will get into a T-14. What else is new?
@TheAdoptedOne: that is called "Dean Poker Night" lol
@ClockworkBlue: I feel like most people could train for the 40 for the same amount of time as they do the LSAT and get close to sub 5 which would be equivalent to a 167+
