1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

People use standardised metrics, such as "infra", "placements", etc to weigh NLUs against each other, but these parameters don't give us the complete picture of life at a particular uni, especially NUJS.
Being effectively SJA run means complete freedom to do anything, anywhere- both on and off campus. I've noticed that noojies in particular are extremely passionate about their college, and do anything to defend it tooth and nail. NUJS has a distinct culture born out of a very unique collective experience. As a result, both students and alumni are very tied to this place, and even within law firms, NUJS alum form a clique amongst themselves. Based on the conversations I've had with both alum and students there, I've noticed that not only are they doing very well for themselves (job, intern, moot, publications), but have extremely fulfilling lives outside this. Qualitatively too, NUJS students seem to be much more street smart- they excel when they have to, and party the rest of the time.
In spite of all the problems the uni faces on a day-to-day basis (be it dogshit infra or non-existent admin), NUJS still consistently outperforms every other law-school in moots, ADRs, job opportunities, and even higher-education. People can hate NUJS all they want, but the place has something that no other law school has.
