A quick definition of nomen:

A nomen is a name. In ancient Rome, people had three names: a first name, a family name, and a surname. A nomen can also be a collective name for a group of things or a general name for a category of things. In law, a nomen can be a legal name or designation.

A more thorough explanation:

A nomen is a personal name, particularly in Roman law. In ancient Rome, citizens had three names: a praenomen (first name), a nomen (family name), and a cognomen (surname). For example, Julius Caesar's full name was Gaius Julius Caesar. The nomen is the name of the family group.

More broadly, a nomen can refer to any name. For example, "John" is a nomen.

A nomen collectivum is a collective name for a class of things. For example, "fruit" is a nomen collectivum because it refers to a group of different types of fruit.

A nomen generale is a general name or genus. For example, "dog" is a nomen generale because it refers to a group of different breeds of dogs.

A nomen juris is a legal name or designation. For example, "LLC" is a nomen juris because it is a legal designation for a type of business entity.

A nomen universitatis is a historical term for the name of a whole entity. For example, "Barony" is a nomen universitatis because it refers not only to the lands over which the rights of barony extend, but also to the rights themselves.

Also love how he put an EO to leave the Paris climate agreement in the midst of the LA wildfires and places who haven’t gotten snow in 15 years now getting storms

I dont think so based on my very brief research
17:16
hmm I know some school offer that in their offer (I also believe KS does not negotiate) but I wonder which schools would reconsider with a condition of in state after 1L yr?

@texaslawhopefully: Not necessarily but I believe what Aristotle used to say. He used to say you could not have a functioning political system if you can not get gender relations right. Or essentially that.
KS does negotiate! I got an email saying theyre doing it for the first time this year
its rather limited but its not nothing

@HopefullyInLawSchool: noted, thanks for the intel. I know we joke around but all things conidered, KS is goated

@BigStrongBug: Nah aristotle only applies gender as a role which I think either sex could fulfill. My issue with Trump's EO to limit things to only sex but I am fine with him doing it for now.
Yeah and Aristotle old as hell boy he would’ve died of hysteria after learning what the internet and tiktok is

@SplitterusClitterus: I think some school shootings could have been prevented if gender relations were better.
Very few of any,, none come to my mind tbh

@llama: hi
They all seem like mental health and access to gun issues
Not mental health regarding gender and usually it’s a gun kids get right in the house

@SplitterusClitterus: Well, I would say almost every one of them. Either due to more stable households, community connections or even better treatment of those going through divorced and whatnot. Almost every shooter has at least one of these elements included with their reasons for killing.

@Dkk: No. Aristotle said the family was the fundamental political unit, which is different than what you're saying. But, more to the point, the American political system exists vis-a-vis to 17/18th century political thought, or classical liberalism. Of which the central assumption is that the highest end is social choice.
