and Owen L. Coon Library,
both dedicated in 1960.
The top of Abbott Hall,
the student residence,
rises at upper left.

The Law School constitutes part of the self-contained professional
campus of Northwestern University. Surrounding the Law School are
the separate buildings of the Graduate School of Management and the
Medical and Dental Schools. Also on the campus are Thorne Hall, an
auditorium available for major convocations and ceremonies, Abbott
Hall, the eighteen floor student residence for the men and women enrolled in these graduate schools, and hospitals which are members of the
orthwestern U niversity Medica l Center.
Living and studying on a self-sufficient graduate campus, the law
student remains free from the distractions of undergraduate life. The
original campus of the University, wh ere the main body of about 6,500
undergraduate students and 3,000 graduate students are enrolled, is
twelve miles north in suburban Evanston.
The Evanston campus, available and accessible to Law School students
for cultural activities, athletic events, and interdisciplinary seminars and
contacts, is the focus of the First Plan for the Seventies, the Univenity's
current $180 million program of improvement. The First Plan is the
initial phase of a long-range program to maintain the University as a
major center of teaching, scholarship, and research. The second phase
13

�will be based on the report of a faculty committee delineating the
University's needs beyond 1971 for both the Evanston and Chicago
campuses.
The $ 11.6 million Northwestern University Library, key academic
facility of the First Plan, will be in use in 1970. Other facilities already
completed or in process of construction include the Lindheimer Astronomical Research Center, Rebecca Crown Center, the O.T. Hogan
Biological Sciences Research Building, and ten acres of new lakefill
which will be the site of the Norris University Center and an $18
million Center for the Fine and Performing Arts.

LAW SCHOOL BUILDINGS
The Law School itself consists of a complex of buildings arranged to
form a quadrangle occupying the block between Chicago Avenue and
Superior Street. The original buildings, Levy Mayer Hall and the
Elbert H. Gary Library, were completed in 1926. Robert R. McCormick
Hall and the Owen L. Coon Library were completed in 1960. The
quadrangle completely encloses a quiet garden.
In interior design and ornament, the buildings of the School are rich
in the lore of the law. About 2,5 00 portraits, engravings, etchings, and
photographs, collected by the late Dean John H. ·w igmore in the United
States, England, and on the Continent, are hung about the School to
illustrate the men and events of the law throughout history and throughout the world.

September 21, 1859.

LAW
STUDY
AT
NORTHWESTERN
The first law school in its state and region and among the oldest in
the nation, Northwestern enjoys a rich heritage. For more than a century
the School of Law has been dedica ted to the education of men for all
branches of endeavor in the law under the high est standards of academic
a nd professional excellence. This dedication marks the ch aracter of the
Law School today.
Long identified with progressive movements in legal education, the
Law School h as always sought to prepare students for the broad challenge
of the future. To this end, the program of instruction is designed to
foster an understanding of the principles that guide growth and change
in the law.
Early in its history the Law School adopted a policy of limited
enrollment to promote educational quality. Today Northwestern remains
a law school of medium size, small in comparison with others of national
standing, with less than 500 students seeking their first degree in law.
A facu lty of substantial size permits a close working relationship between
student and teacher, fostering professional training of the highest order
a nd the development of each student's unique ca pabilities.

II

�" . . . these noble buildings, des igned for
one of the noblest uses to wh ich any
building can be put-the teaching of law.·•

- Sir William Searle Holdsworth,
at the dedication of the
Law School buildings, .June 16, 1927.

THE
SCHOOL
Unlike the physical sciences, legal learning requires no elaborate
apparatus. For the serious student, however, a stimulating and congenial environment contributes to the educational process. Professional
training of the highest order requires more than a comprehensive library and classrooms designed for effective teaching. There must be
places for reflection and concentration. There must be arrangements
conducive to informal interchange of thought and opinion between
student and student and between student and teacher. The atmosphere
should imbue the student of law with an appreciation for the ancient
traditions of the bar and for the professional heritage he will share.
LOCATION OF THE CAMPUSES
The Law School is situated on the shore of Lake Michigan near th e
center of Chicago. To the south, along the lake front, lie Grant Park,
a series of yacht basins, recreational facilities, museums of art, science,
and natural history, a planetarium, and an aquarium. To the north extends the Gold Coast, an area of residential apartments separated from
the lake by a continuous series of parks, beaches, golf courses, and boating facilities. Nearby, to the west, is one of the city's centers of art and
entertainment. A half-mile to the southwest is the Loop, the central
business and shopping area of Chicago and the legal and financial center
of the region. Here, convenient for student visits, are located the offices of
federal, state, and municipal government, including trial and appellate
courts of both the state and federal governments, ranging from the local
small claims courts to the United States Court of Appeals.

CLASSROOMS
The Law School contains seven major classrooms. These generous
facilities make it possible to schedule a number of classes at the same
time. Most classes, including all those in the first year, are divided into
sections. As a consequence, the number of students attending a class
seldom exceeds eighty-five and is often mu ch smaller. Su ch classes, small
by general law school standards, encourage responsible participation by
each student in the probing, analytical discussion that is the mark of
legal education at Northwestern. Lincoln Hall, the largest of the classrooms, was modeled after the British House of Commons in dimensions
and seating arrangement.
In addition to the major classrooms, the School has four seminar
rooms scaled and furnished to provide comfortable and congenial surroundings for smaller study groups. Here meet the seminars of the second
and third years, numbering typically from ten to twenty students,
seated informally around a table with one or more faculty members for
a detailed analysis of problem areas lying at the frontiers of legal
development. In such study, the student necessarily bears a large measure
of responsibility for giving direction and substance to the discussion.
15

�For practice a nd instruction in the arts of advocacy, the School h as
a full y equipped modern courtroom . Complete with witn ess stand, jury
box, counsel tables, and sea ting for spectators, it accommodates not only
mock appeals but full-scale practice trials .

LIBRARY
The indispensable instruments of the lawyer's calling are books, and
a comprehensive and well arranged library is essential to effective training for the profession. The librar y with its associa ted research facilities
is the heart of the Law School.
The Nor thwes tern Law School Library consists of two buildings, integra ted physica ll y and administered as a unit, the E lbert H. Gary Library
a nd the Owen L. Coon Library. In combination, the library occupies a
fu ll side of the Law School quadrangle extending from Chicago Avenue
to Superior Stree t and includes four floors of working area. The Elbert
H. Gary Library, part of the original Law School buildings, is named
for the donor of the building who also established the Gary Fund, which
provided for the acquisition of substantial parts of the original co llection
and also provides in part for the current purchase of books. The Owen
L. Coon Library, built in l 960, is nam ed in recognition of a substantial
gift from the Owen L. Coon Foundation.
With about 270,000 volumes, Northwestern has one of the largest
law school libraries in the Western Hemisphere. More important than

Open stacks and ample working space make the library a
comfortable and convenient place in which to study.

�size, however, is the utility of the collection. The main reading room of
the library occupies the highest floor of the building and is divided by
shelved partitions into dozens of secluded but well-lighted alcoves fitted
with large working tables and chairs to provide convenient accommodations close by the books. The arrangement is repeated on the lower
floors, with the addition of a number of individual carrels for sustained
and concentrated research. Included on a lower level are glass-walled
typing areas with individual soundproof carrels open to any student who
may wish to type a research paper or to reorganize his course notes.
The library is operated with an open-stack policy to bring readers
and books together without unnecessary formalities. The student is free
to browse and to search at will through the collection, and he may call
upon either the expert full-time staff of sixteen or the eighteen assistants
if he is in need of guidance, aid, or suggestions. The library is open
daily throughout the year and in the evenings as well whenever the
School is in session. To provide for the heavy demands of faculty research, a separate working collection is maintained in the Faculty
Library.
The course of instruction has been designed not only to provide
basic instruction in the use of legal materials but to encourage full use
of the library's large resources and to afford every student extensive
opportunity for independent scholarly research.
The Law School Library collection includes substantially all the reported decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and
territories, Great Britain and the Commonwealth, together with their
statutes and session laws and subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, textbooks, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary
to form a complete working collection for every legal system in the
English language. A well selected comprehensive collection of United
States government documents is maintained for the teaching program and
for the use of the legal profession generally. A complete collection of
documents is available at the University Library on the Evanston campus,
which is a designated depository library. This Anglo-American collection
is supplemented by a selection of works in the fields of history, economics,
government, and the other social and behavioral sciences. The library
also receives every current legal periodical of general interest printed in
the English language.
More than one-third of the total collection is made up of works in the
fields of foreign and international law. The comprehensive materials in
foreign law include the codes, treatises, decisions, and journals of all
major European countries and Japan, and good working collections in
Latin-American law. At an early date the library began to build a complete collection in the law of nations, going beyond the domestic laws
17

�of the separate countries to emphasize the rules of law controlling their
relations with each other. This large collection includes the documents
of the international organizations, the international courts, treaty series
and official diplomatic documents, treatises and monographs and periodicals from all parts of the world. The collection permits original and useful work to be carried on in the field of public international law.
Holdings in other specialized fields include a comprehensive collection of treatises, periodicals and documents in criminal law and its
administration, and a special collection of materials in aeronautics, including aviation law, commerce, and other works in the field exclusive
of technical engineering publications. In addition, the library includes
outstanding collections of medieval law, jurisprudence, legal history,
comparative law, and valuable resources in Roman law. Especially
notable are the \,Villiams Collection of Legal Instruments dating from
A.D. 1300 to 1700, which comprises more than five hundred original
manuscript instruments executed in connection with landed estates, and
the George W. Shaw Collection of Early European Law, established in
1949 by Joseph L. Shaw (LL.B., 1903).
The Law School Library is independent in administration and organization, but its comprehensive resources are supplemented in specialized
areas through inter-library loans and other cooperative arrangements
with the general University Library, departmental libraries, and the
major public, educational, and legal collections in the region.
A special feature of the library is its distinguished rare book collection, housed in the handsome Hardy Scholars Treasure Room adjoining
the main reading room. These early volumes, numbering some 2,500,
have been acquired through the years and represent a variety of fields.
Many are first editions of the classics of the law, including a number of
manuscripts and incunabula (books printed before 1500). A number
are either unique or the only copies in the Western Hemisphere. The
value of these books is not primarily antiquarian, however. They have
been gathered and selected because they are indispensable for effective
legal research in areas that may be vital both to scholars and practitioners.
Although the reserve facilities of the library have been constructed
with foresight to accommodate an eventual collection twice the size of
the current holdings, provision has also been made for the use of the
materials of legal research of the future. A section of the library is fully
fitted with the basic equipment for use of microfilm and microcards,
designed to replace conventional books and to ameliorate their problems
of bulk and deterioration.
As the practitioner of a learned profession, the lawyer is more than
a craftsman. To encourage a wide-ranging interest among the students,
18

�The Cutler Browsing Alcove .

a section of the main reading room has been set aside for casual reading
in fields of current or general significance. Comfortably furnished, the
browsing area offers current periodicals as well as a broad selection of
biographical and miscellaneous works.
LIBRARY FUNDS

In addition to general University appropnat10n, the Law School
Library is supported by a number of special endowments.
The major endowment funds for the Library are the Gary Endowment Fund, established in 1925 by Elbert H. Gary (LL.B., 1867), then
Chairman of the United States Steel Corporation, and the Norris E.
Crull Endowment Fund, established in 1966 in memory of Norris E.
Crull (LL.B., 1909).
In 1947, under the auspices of the Law Alumni Association, the John
Henry Wigmore Fund was established. In 1960, Barnet Hodes
(LL.B., 1921) established the Barnet Hodes Fund for the creation and
maintenance of a collection on local government. In 1967, Joseph Rosenberg (LL.B., 1910) and Mrs. Rosenberg established the Judge Hugo
M. Friend Memorial Fund, and the Class of 1965 established the Herbert
19

�Dacks Memorial Fund in memory of their classmate, Herbert Dacks. In
1968, the Philip A. Shapiro Endowment Fund was established in memory
of Judge Philip A. Shapiro (J.D., 1932) of the Circuit Court of Cook
County, and Walter H . Moses established the Adolph Moses Endowment
Fund.
For a number of years Paul Cutler (J.D., 1931) annually has provided
funds to enrich the collection in fields such as biography, history, political
science and literature for the Cutler Browsing Alcove.

OTHER SCHOOL FACILITIES
Although hours in the classroom and the library predominate both
for students and for faculty, there must be provision for the informal
give-and-take discussion in which the student lawyer hones his skill in
analysis and expression-and for moments of relaxation, however brief.
Lowden Hall, named for the first of the School's alumni to serve as governor of Illinois, is the principal School lounge and is rich with reminders of the history of law and the Law School. On the lower level
are lockers, food and beverage dispensers, and two rooms equipped with
tables for a coffee break or light luncheon.
A unique feature of the Law School is the study area provided on the
fourth floor of Levy Mayer Hall. Here are rooms accommodating four
to ten persons each, ideally suited to individual study or informal discussion and review sessions.
Separate offices are furnished for the various co-curricular activities
conducted under student auspices and control, including the officers of
the Junior Bar Association and the staff of the Law Review, the Julius
H. Miner Moot Court Competition, and the Student Book Exchange.
Faculty offices, which open directly onto main corridors for access
without formalities or intermediaries, foster frequent and fruitful informal meeting between student and teacher.

STUDENT RESIDENCE
Living and working together, law students gain advantages that are
significant if not readily apparent. Casual conversation as well as earnest
discussion contributes to the development of the prospective lawyer's
powers and personality. The stimulation and discipline students give
one another have an impact that is directly evident in the classroom.
The ancient ancestors of modern law schools, the English Inns of
Court, depended solely upon the influences of students' living, eating,
and arguing informally together to produce men of professional qualification. For the student who resides in Abbott Hall, the Law School becomes the center of everyday life. The library and the classrooms are
20

�accessible, the distractions of commuting are avoided, and the student
naturally and effortlessly concentrates his time and attention on preparing for the practice of law.
For these reasons, all law students except married students and those
whose homes are within easy commuting distance of the School are encouraged to live in Abbott Hall. It is designed to provide convenient
and attractive living quarters and to provide an atmosphere in which
may be developed all those qualities of personality which are so essential
to a lawyer, but which for the most part fall outside the sphere of
formal training. All law students residing in Abbott Hall belong to the
Law Residents' Association. The purpose of this organization is to bring
together the law students living in Abbott Hall and to provide social
activities.
The building, eighteen stories high, overlooks Lake Michigan on
Lake Shore Drive from Huron to Superior Street. It is constructed of
Indiana limestone and conforms in architectural style to the classroom
buildings on the campus. The first two floors and the basement are
given over to common rooms for social and recreational purposes, the
upper sixteen to private accommodations, with a lounge on each of the
upper floors. The first floor contains general offices and a series of shops.
On the second floor are a large student lounge and the dining rooms.
Facilities for handball, squash, weight lifting, exercise, billiards, and
table tennis are available in the basement.
Floors are reserved for the students of the School of Law. There is
also space reserved for women law students. Double study-bedrooms are
available. Rooms are equipped with desks, dressers, and beds with innerspring ma ttresses. All rooms are provided with chairs, draperies, and
lamps. Bed linens are not furnished. Each room has a double closet.
(Trunks are stored in the baggage room in the basement.) The plan of
a typical residential floor in Abbott H all is shown below.

17

The cost of room and board in Abbott Hall is reasonable and is
below the rates charged for other desirable accommodations in the
same part of the city. The average room rate for the academic year is
21

�$400 for each occupant. Before a room is occupied, a contract for the
academic year is signed by the applicant.
Students do not sign board contracts. The attractive residents' dining
hall on the second floor serves excellent food and is operated on a daily
cash basis. The average daily cost of meals is $3.50.
The Division of Student Finance issues and makes all adjustments on
the residence bills for Abbott Hall. Rental bills are issued for payments
on October 1, January I, and April I. Bills are due upon presentation
and are payable at the Cashier's Office in Abbott Hall.
Applications, together with a $50.00 room deposit, should be filed as
early as possible. For room applications, address the Manager, Abbott
Hall, 710 North Lake Shore Drive, Chicago, Illinois 6061 I.
Abbott Hall also has a limited number of furnished apartments for
married students. Apartment rentals average $ 130 a month, including
utilities. Rental apartments also are available in private buildings in the
vicinity of the Law School or within easy commuting distance.

STUDENT HEALTH SERVICE
The Student Health Service for students of the Law School registered
for six or more semester hours is located in the Montgomery ,!\Tard
Building, Room 2-009, of the Medical School. Medical services and
hospital insurance available are described in the Student Health Bulletin
each student receives upon registration.
The Clinic is open daily except Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays
from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Physicians' hours are posted on the Student
Health bulletin board. In an emergency, a student may report to the
nurse in charge, Room 2-009, during regular clinic hours. Acute illness
occurring outside those hours should be reported to the Emergency Room
at the Passavant Memorial Hospital.

THE
COURSE
OF

INSTRUCTION
The purpose of the Law School is to prepare its graduates for effective service in all fields of law-to qualify men and women not only for
the private practice of the profession but for careers in government
service, in the fields of commerce and finance, and in legal education as
well. The curriculum does not concentrate upon imparting knowledge
of the legal rules applicable in any one jurisdiction or region. Rather,
it concentrates upon the development of the fundamental capacities and
skills of the lawyer.
Human activity is infinitely varied and ever changing. Law, bringing
order and direction to the relations of men, involves a continuous process of growth and adjustment. Every legal problem and each case that
comes to the lawyer is, in a sense, unique. Effective professional education must, therefore, prepare the student to deal with situations never
before encountered, to direct the resources of the law to new fields of
human endeavor, and to handle not the problems of the past but the
cases of the future.
Reflecting this objective, the program of instruction in the Law
School differs markedly from the usual undergraduate instruction. It
requires, of course, diligence and effort for a mastery of the formal materials of the course. Beyond this foundation the instruction demands
thought and initiative of the individual student to extend his learning
23

�beyond the limits of the materials and to stretch his powers of analysis.
As the lawyer must deal with new situations throughout his professional
life, so the student lawyer is taught to transcend rote learning and to
find his way in unfamiliar contexts. The result is an intellectual challenge that is both rewarding and stimulating. The individual student
is spurred to go as far as his mind and industry will carry him .
CLASSES

The law student typically attends classes for fifteen or sixteen hours
a week. Class meetings are scheduled throughout the morning and
afternoon Monday through Friday with time for study between classes.
There are occasional special class meetings on Saturday, although generally that clay is available for uninterrupted individual study and research. Two or three times as many hours are devoted to individual
study as are spent in class. Time spent in co-curricular activities and
independent research must be added to the requirements of course work.
The study of law, therefore, is a full-time occupation.
In a typical Law School term, the student's class attendance is distributed among four or five courses. Some of the subjects represent
ancient categories of the law. Course titles such as Criminal Law, Property, Contracts, and Torts go back, as separate topics, to the days of Lord
Coke or Blackstone. But life has changed since those early clays in the
law, and even these traditional subjects have al tered substantially in content. Today in Torts, the focus is on such disparate objects as the automobile and the atom and upon the legal problem each presents to an
energized society. Property law today concerns itself not only with ancient learning but as well with such topics as urban renewal and air
rights. Criminal Law more and more is concerned with psychiatry, with
modern correctional theories, and with protection of the fundamental
rights of the accused. The law of Con tracts today finds itself dealing
with and adjusting to the subject matter of tomorrow- plastics, missiles,
the building of skyscrapers, and the hiring of research and development
skills.
The changing character of law is reflected in the content of traditional courses, altered to keep pace with a changing society. It is reflected,
too, in the newer courses introduced by the Law School into the law
curriculum to deal with emerging areas of legal service. The lawyer is a
full-time student for only one period in his professional life. ·w ithin the
limits of the possible, he must be educated in that brief span for the responsibilities of the legal profession, not just for the day, but for the half
century of lawyer's work that lies ahead. So it is that Labor Relations,
Taxation, Administrative Law, Civil Rights, and Trade Relations were
introduced into the basic program of the Law School during the forma24

�Professor meets informally with students after class.

tive years of those subjects, anticipating the current recognition of their
significance. Courses and seminars in International Law, Scientific Evidence, Comparative Law, and International Business Transactions are
typical of other offerings designed to meet the needs of the profession in
the years to come.

FACULTY
The basic instruction in the Law School program is conducted by the
full-time resident faculty, who take teaching as their first responsibility.
Each member is experienced in private practice, in responsible government posts, or both. Many are called upon for consultation and advice
by government agencies and private groups and are active in the organizations and affairs of the legal profession and the community. Their
scholarly activities include the delivery of lectures and addresses before
legal and public bodies as well as the preparation of learned treatises
and articles. Such activities serve to complement and to enrich the instruction. The casebooks and other teaching materials for a majority of
the courses offered in the School were prepared by the faculty members
who teach those courses, and many are widely used, standard works in
their respective fields.

METHODS OF INSTRUCTION
In recognition of the lawyer's function of articulating the conflicting
interests of society, instruction in modern law schools is conducted principally through participation by the class. No longer does the student
lawyer listen passively in a lecture audience. To maximize the opportunity for active participation afforded each student, Northwestern Law
School has adopted a curricular policy emphasizing instruction through
relatively small classes and seminars. First-year courses enrolling l 75
students or more have no place in the Law School program. The entering student will find himself attending classes with a group of approximately half that size. Seminars are limited in enrollment and commonly
range in size from ten to twenty students. Advanced individual work
is conducted under the personal supervision of one or more members
of the faculty.
Instruction of this kind requires a low student-faculty ratio. The
program of the School is based upon the conviction that this concentration of educational resources upon the individual student is the most
effective way to develop the skills that distinguish the legal profession.
The Case Method
The case method of teaching, employed principally in the formal
courses, particularly those offered in the first year, is founded upon the
premise that the first objective of law training is to develop an understanding on the part of the student of how and why the courts decide
cases as they do. The method was adopted at the Law School in the
earliest years of its evolution. The materials of study are the actual de26

�os10ns of courts, embodied in written opm10ns rendered in real and
disputed cases, rather than a textbook compendium of legal rules. The
cases themselves are the specimens of legal controversy to be examined
and dissected. The student is brought to the level of a participant in
the proceecling, analyzing each stage in the course of litigation and each
step in the process of decision. Through painstaking scrutiny of a large
number of cases, the student shares vicariously the experience of the
lawyers and judges wh&lt;i&gt; conducted them, and thereby gains an understanding of the judicial process based on observation of the law in action
at first hand.
Although the case method varies in its use with the approach of the
professor, the teaching styles grouped under this heading have certain
characteristic elements in common.
Under the case system it is essential that students prepare thoroughly and intensively before class. The course materials for this preparation
consist of a casebook, a collection of actual decisions in related kinds of
controversy. The student at Northwestern will find that the authors of
many of his casebooks are his own professors, authorities in their respective fields. The class session in a case-taught course typically does not
offer a lecture but rather a discussion of several of these cases, conducted
in the manner of a Socratic dialogue between the teacher and students.
Questions are designed to test the student's understanding of the case,
to identify the considerations that controlled the decision, and to probe
its implications for similar situations and its relation to other decisions.
The discussion is conducted in an atmosphere of unrelenting questioning of each idea presented, by both fellow students and instructor.
Through the guidance of provocative questions, the students develop a
healthy skepticism, a capacity for independent critical judgment, and a
tough-minded approach to legal materials.
Although the professor may upon occasion depart from the interrogating role to explain the background of a legal problem or to give
direction to the class discussion, the essence of the case method is the
collective probing and searching, the crucible of give and take in which
the student's own powers of reason and analysis are tempered and developed. The system is in fact designed to cast back to the student, after
he has digested and evaluated the wide range of ideas developed in
group discussion, the task of developing for himself an understanding,
first, of what courts and administrative agencies do and why they do it
and, second, of how to participate effectively in the process. From the
outset of his law school career the student is thus led to do what he has
to do throughout his professional life-think, analyze, and decide on his
own initiative.
V1Tith the interplay of ideas and clash of opinion, class sessions are
27

�seldom dull. Since the significant formulation in the progress of the discussion may well come from a fellow student, and, since any student may
be drawn into the discussion at any time, alertness and concentrated
attention are required of all.
Most college students, accustomed to student-teacher dialogue only
in quite small groups, find it difficult to imagine vigorous discussion in
a class of eighty or ninety students. Although they may not fully understand why such discussion is possible until they themselves become regular participants in the process, they are welcomed and encouraged to
arrange with the Admissions Office to visit one or two classes at the Law
School to see the process in action.
The Problem Method
The problem method, an instructional technique originated at the
Law School and now widely employed throughout legal education, is
used in many second and third-year courses. Here the emphasis is not
upon the cases or administrative decisions as such. The focus of the
student's work and of the class session is rather a set of facts raising
le!sal problems for which there may indeed be no authoritative solution.
The student's task is to take the available materials in the forms of decisions, statutes, and administrative rulings and to construct or create
his own solution to the problem.
Perhaps the problem is set at the stage where the businessman asks
for advice on a proposed transaction. Perhaps the transaction has already
taken place and the problem concerns the consequences to be attached
to the transaction by the federal or state government by way of taxation
or regulation. In short, the problems are much like those which come to
the lawyer in actual practice, and in fact the problems are frequently
drawn from life. Consultative practice by some members of the faculty
and the generally close relationship between the School and the practicing profession combine to provide the student in a problem-method
course with an experience that closely approximates the practice of law.
Characteristically in a course taught by this method, the student submits before the class session a short memorandum solution to the problem, based on his analysis of relevant source material. In the class session he or one of his fellow students is invited to explain the legal issues
presented by the problem situation and the views he takes of those issues.
Discussion, often vigorous, follows .
Practice Courses
Practice courses preserve in the Law School the advantages which
accrued to the aspiring attorney in an earlier day wfaen there were no
28

�law schools and a man trained himself for the bar by working in the
office of an established lawyer, observing the practice of law, and learning through trial and error the arts and skills of the profession.
In 1910, Northwestern introduced to legal education the idea of
giving law students actual experience in practice through the medium of
assisting in the provision of legal services to the poor. This idea has
been a part of the curriculum since that time, and is now developed in
the course known as Practice Clinic. In this course, students study legal
problems of the poor and then serve in the Northwestern Legal Aid
Clinic under the supervision of faculty members. The Clinic handles all
types of civil cases, and the student is given practical experience and
faculty instruction in consulting with clients, interviewing witnesses,
and preparing pleadings and other documents. The student also assists
the lawyers in the Clinic in the preparation for and conduct of trials.
The training is similar in many respects to that provided during the
internship period in medical education . For a more complete description of the Clinic, see page 71.
During his first year the student is instructed in the techniques of
oral and written argument in the course in Moot Court. Practicing the
lawyer's skills, he is required to prepare a written brief in compliance
with prevailing professonal standards and to argue his case, opposed by
a fellow student under courtroom conditions before an appellate court
composed of prominent alumni and faculty members. This instruction
is continued on a voluntary basis in the second year in the Julius H .
Miner Moot Court Competition.
In the third year the student is offered a choice of practice courses in
the trial of a lawsuit from its beginning to end. The instruction provides the student with actual experience in examining witnesses, presenting evidence, arguing to a jury, and the like. The student thus learns by
doing, not merely by precept, what the trial lawyer must be able to do.
Most of the lawyer's practice is carried on in his office, not in the
courtroom. To prepare its graduates for the work of counseling, advising, and planning, the Law School offers a number of courses in which
the student is called upon to draw the legal instruments and documents
which the practicing attorney must be able to prepare.
Seminars
Seminars are offered in the second and third years in a variety of
fields . Here the student is free to select subjects of special interest to
him and to explore new areas of the law. In a group commonly numbering from ten to twenty, with the guidance of a senior faculty member,
the student engages in intensive individual work on some aspect of the
general subject embraced by the seminar. Many seminars cut across tra29

�ditional disciplinary boundaries and include materials and participants
from such fields as economics, sociology, psychiatry, and political science.
Often the seminar student writes a major paper and presents this
product of his own research for the critical consideration of the seminar
group. Some designated seminars place special emphasis on the developiment of writing skills by requiring the submission of a preliminary and
a revised draft of such a paper. Students, other than those who gain
similar experience on the staff of the Law Review or Journal of Criminal
Law, Criminology and Police Science, are required to take one such
seminar or program of Senior Research. With the stimulus of special
interest in the subject matter and the spur of criticism from interested
fellow students in prospect, significant legal research is done in the
seminars. Some of the papers are printed in the professional journals
published by the Law School, and research done in the seminar program
has on occasion been favorably noticed in the opinions of some of the
nation's highest courts.
Senior Research Program
The Senior Research Program in the third year is an innovation in
legal education introduced for the first time in 1966-67. Under this Program a student with faculty approval may elect to devote a significant
proportion of his third year (from 4 to 8 credit hours) to advanced research under the personal supervision of one or more members of the
faculty. A student interested in this Program may propose during his
second year a project for faculty approval and arrange his schedule to
include the Law School courses and seminars which provide the necessary
background for the proposed work. In the third year the student meets
at least weekly with his faculty supervisor to discuss the progress of the
research. The final paper or report must be approved by a faculty committee.
The aim is not to make a "specialist" of the student, but rather to
afford him the intellectual experience of plumbing a subject to its depths;
of sharpening his power of analysis, observation and communication; and
of making a genuine contribution to research. Depending upon the
nature of the subject, projects may require research in the law library,
and may also draw upon other resources: other libraries in the University
and the community; other departments of the University, where course or
seminar offerings related to the field of inquiry may be taken; or the community itself, where field research may be undertaken. The Program is
flexible enough to permit, with careful advanced planning and approval,
even work in other parts of the nation or the world.
The faculty participants in the Program carry a classroom teaching
load which is lighter than normal in order that they may devote more
30

�time to parallel research and to the joint discussion and critique necessary to take the inquiry beyond the bounds of traditional seminar work
or individual study projects. Indeed, in many cases, work in the Program
is expected to grow into a joint, cooperative student-teacher research
undertaking, more significant not only in substance but also in working
relationship than anything heretofore possible in a law school setting.
The challenges and rewards promised by the Senior Research Program
are many. As a supplement to the longer established group learning techniques, the individual learning and teaching offered by the Program
promise significant further enrichment for students willing and able to
meet its demands for initiative, self-discipline, and hard work. The Program is expected to serve, too, the School's established goal of making
regular contributions on the frontiers of the law.
Most significant of all, perhaps, are the opportunities for student and
teacher to work together in concrete ways toward the common end of
advancing the highest traditions of the law as a learned profession and
as a servant of society.

THE THREE-YEAR CURRICULUM
In the last century Northwestern, setting the norm in legal education, was among the first of the nation's law schools to require three
years of study for a degree in law. Beginning students enter the Law
School in September and attend the two semesters of the regular academic year for three years.
The most recent revision of the School's curriculum was approved by
the Faculty in the spring of 1969, and is described later. During his
first year of law study the student follows a prescribed course designed
to provide an understanding of basic legal principles and concepts and
to give a solid grounding in the fundamentals indispensable for all
branches of the profession. Here the student encounters the grand
divisions of private law-Property, Tort, and Contract-as well as Constitutional Law and Criminal Law. The course in Legal Writing and
Research and the Laboratory Seminar in Procedure meet typically in
small groups (ten to fifteen students) in which the lawyer's basic tools
and the first year student's individual problems in dealing with them are
brought under careful scrutiny.
Each entering student is assigned a senior faculty member as adviser.
This advisory relationship is available in the first year to ease the adjustment to the demands of law study. Thereafter the adviser becomes
guide and mentor as the student plans the work of his last two years.
The wide range of electives offered by the Law School in the second
and third years permits a modest degree 0f concentration by the student
wishing it. Moreover, seminars often provide opportunities for further
31

�exploration of a field in a new context. Thus, for instance, criminal
procedure may be treated in a paper written for the Civil Liberties
seminar or commercial law may be studied in the Legal History or
Comparative Law seminars. But perhaps most significant is the opportunity offered to sample a wide variety of problems in the law and
to foster new interests thus discovered. The School's policy of offering
most courses in two sections meeting at different times and often in
different semesters practically insures that, with advance planning, the
student can include in his schedule virtually any combination of elective
courses he wishes in his last two years.

REQUIRED COURSES

In order to be recommended for the degree of Juris Doctor, a student
must complete successfully 90 semester-hours of work including the following:
All first year courses
The course in International Law
A program of Senior Research or one seminar designated as requiring
the submission of a preliminary and revi~ed draft of a final paper. (Students participating in the work of the Law Review or Journal of Criminal Law, Criminology and Police Science are relieved of this requirement.)
Although the Faculty may change the requirements for graduation
at any time, this responsibility is not exercised so as to place an undue
burden upon an enrolled student who has planned his program on the
basis of previously announced requirements.
In addition to these course requirements, instructors may establish
one or more prerequisites for enrollment in particular courses and seminars in the second and third years. Courses listed as concurrent requisites
may be courses taken previously or to be taken concurrently.
COURSE LOAD
Courses totaling 16 credit-hours in any term, in the opm10n of the
Faculty, represent the maximum amount of work which a good student
can do effectively under favorable conditions. On the other hand, each
student is expected to register for not less than 14 credit-hours of work
each term.

LIMITED ENROLLMENT
The seminars and the courses in Trial Practice are limited in enrollment. The School cannot assure that all students wishing to enroll in a
particular seminar or Trial Practice can be accommodated.

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS
Programs for the second and third year must have the written approval of the student's assigned faculty adviser. In their second year, students may register for no more than one seminar in any semester. Third
year students may register in any semester for no more than two seminars
requiring the writing of substantial papers.
Regular attendance is required in all courses. No student should
enroll in any course without the intenti~n and capability of satisfying
this requirement. Failure to attend regularly may cause reduction in
grades, loss of credit for courses, additional remedial work, denial of
residence credit, or other appropriate sanctions in the discretion of the
instructor or the Dean.

EXAMINATIONS
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. In accordance
with the prevailing practice in legal education, a single final examination is usually given, without periodic or mid-term tests, to permit comprehensive treatment of the subject matter and to measure the student's
49

�capacity to work with and master a substantial body of material. Although examinations provide the most important source for determining
the student's relative achievement, consideration may also be given to
the written work done in connection with a course and to the preparation of assignments for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion. In
seminar courses, no examinations are ordinarily given. Grades are based
upon the products of individual research and participation in the seminar discussions.
Students who are eligible but who for good reason are unable to
take an examination may, with the permission of the Dean, take the
next regularly scheduled examination in the course, take the examination late, or in unusual cases be given a special examination.

HONORS AND PRIZES

SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAMS
In the total edu cational program of the Law School, the formal course work
within the curriculum is supplemented by a variety of additional offerings.
Lectures by distinguished scholars, jurists, and statesmen from the United States
and abroad serve as cultural adjuncts to the regular courses and emphasize the
broader public obligations of the profession. In recogni ti on of the Law School's
role in the life of the profession, the community, and the nation, conferences
are held which bring together leaders of thought and action for discussion of
subjects of major public importance. Through participation in these programs,
the student broadens his vision and develops the sense of public respons ibility

53

�which characterizes the highest traditions of the bar.
Many of these curricular supplements are presented by the Law School as
an integral part of the general educational program upon an occasional basis
and without special sponsorship. Others ar e offered as part of established and
co ntinuing programs within the School. The most notable of th ese continuing
programs are described below.

�THE LINTHICUM FOUNDATION PROGRAM

The Charles Clarence Linthicum Foundation was established 111 1926 in
memory of Professor Linthicum, Class of 1882, a member of the Law School
Faculty from 1902 to 191 5, and one of the most emin ent patent lawyers of his
clay. The income of the fund is devoted to the support of research, study, and
development of the law of trade, industry, and comm erce. }'rom time to time
prizes have been awarded from these funds to distinguished American and
Europ ean authors for meritorious books and essays. In recent years, the Foundation h as sponsor ed a number of conferences with a significant focus on interrel ationships of law, econom ics and government. Among the particular subject
areas wh ich have been considered are antitrust, labor relations, general economic
a nd industrial organization, administrative regulation, land use and European
Common Market development.
Since 1948, projects sponsored by the Linthicum Foundation have included
among their participants such distinguished scholars, jurists and public officials
as John Kenneth Galbraith, Arthur J. Goldberg, Judge Paul R. Hays, Newton
N . Minow, Eugene V. Rostow, th e late Adlai E. Stevenson and W. Willard

NATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR EDUCATION IN
LAW AND POVERTY
In June of 1967, the National Institute for Education in Law and Poverty
was established under the Law School's sponsorship. With the founding of the
Institute, the Law School added a dramatic new dimension to its continuing
legal education efforts. The primary audience for this program is the 2,000
lawyers who provide legal representation for the poor in Office of Economic
Opportunity Legal Services Programs across the country. The National Institute
operates under a $700,000 per year grant from the Office of Economic Opportunity.
The purpose of the National Institute is to develop continuing legal education programs and materials for the poverty lawyer, comparable to those already
developed in other areas of the law. The National Institute seeks to bridge the
chasm which sometimes exists between the world of scholars and the world of
practitioners, to offer materials which are consistent with the best standards of
research and yet sensitive to the practical problems of the neighborhood lawyer
who serves a host of indigent clients, and to supply the scholarship and the
arguments needed for su ccessful test cases.
Just as there cannot be effective legal representation of businessmen without
representation of their business organizations, primarily corporations, so too
there cannot be effective legal representation of th e poor without representation
of their organizations, community development corporations, consumer groups,
etc. Building an effective lawyer-cl ient relationship with an organization of the
poor involves special problems and challenges for the lawyer's versatility, exp ertise, and skill in human relations. The National Institute's program places
a major stress on the philosophy and techniques of skillful group representation.
The Institute's program for 1969 focuses on three areas of special concern
to the poor: housin g law, economic development and the equalization of gov57

�ernment and quasi-government benefit programs. A series of conferences is
being cond ucted on the first two subjects for Legal Services attorneys and others
with a professional interest in the legal problems o[ the poor. The latter subject will be treated in a month-long Colloquium for a select number of the
most experienced Legal Services attorneys in the country.
The literature of poverty law is largely yet to be written. To help fill the
scholarsh ip gap, the National Institute has published the first editions of a
Handbook on Consumer Law and a companion volume, the Handbook on
Welfare Law. New and expanded editions of both are being published in 1969,
and a third volume, the Handbook on Housing Law, is being added to the
series. Each Handbook contains a selection of originally researched articles,
practice papers, and other materials to aid the poverty law practitioner in both
his day-to-clay work and in his test case law reform efforts.
A major purpose of Northwestern University in founding the National Institute is to provide a way to introduce its law students to poverty law, a rapidly
growing practice area of vi tal importance, both to the poor and to the just and
orderly development of our society.
In connection with the Institute, a seminar in Poverty Law has been added
to the Law School curriculum. To a select number of students interested in
poverty law, the National Institute is also able to offer part-time positions as
research assistants. Through the seminar in Poverty Law and through their
participation as research assistants, students will not only grow in knowledge
of the legal problems confronting the poor, but also will develop and fortify
a lifelong professional commitment to the solution of these problems, many o[
which, in the final analysis, are but the residue of society's neglect.

CORPORATE COUNSEL INSTITUTE

Since 1962, Northwestern has conducted the Annual Corporate Counsel Institute in cooperation with the American, Illinois, and Chicago Bar Associations
and the Institute of Continuing Education of the Illinois Bar Association. The
two clay program reviews problems of current importance to lawyers in corporate law departments and in private corporate practice. Over six hundred
lawyers attended the most recent Institute.
Institute lecturers are distinguished private practitioners, members of corporate law departments, government officials, law professors, and other scholars
in fields of antitrust, labor relations, securities regulation, taxation, and other
areas of corporate law practice. Proceedings of the Institute are published.
Students in the Law School are invited to attend the Institute without charge.

In addition to the basic courses and the seminars m Criminal Law and
Criminal Law Administration, the Law School offers substantial action-oriented
training for students, and particularly graduate students, who have a particular
interest in the practice of criminal law or in legal ass istance to law enforcement
agencies.
By virtue of a recent grant from the Ford Foundation, the Law School established a two-year program for the tra ining of law school gradu ates interested

�In 1966, the grant was r enewed for an additional three years, in an amount of
over $250,000. One purpose of these grants is to stimulate awareness of lawyers
and law students of the contribution of the behaviorial sciences to the understanding and improve ment of the legal order. The other principal goal of the
program is to foster among social scientists an understanding of the nature and
implications of the legal order for their own disciplin es. To achieve these ends,
scholarships are awarded in both the Graduate School of the University and in
the School of L aw (see p age 81). The Saga Scholars in the Law School ordinarily are exp ected to take for credit a group of seminars cutting across a number of disciplines. They may also expect to be involved in special research
ac tivity and in the editing of the Law and Socie ty Review, which has a student
board of editors and contributors.

"PHILOSOPHY FROM LAW" CONFERENCES

In accordance with the terms of a grant of $10,000 from Oscar van Leer,
an alumnus of the Law School, Class of 1958, a series of conferences und er the
ge neral title of "Philosophy from Law" was inaugurated in September, 1963.
The obj ective of the grant was to bring together scholars of various disciplines,
lawyers, and judges for the purposes of attempting to distill from the disciplin e
of the law some insights beyond the usual professional skills which may contribute to man 's understanding of himself and his society.

GRADUATE STUDY IN LAW
The graduate program of the Law School has several objectives. One
purpose is to offer to recent law graduates who have demonstrated
superior proficiency in the study of law, as well as to active practitioners,
an opportunity not only to broaden their legal knowledge but also to
study and engage in research in particular fields of interest. The School
also desires to make its facilities available to law teachers and prospective law teachers interested in advanced study and original research and
writing under faculty guidance. In addition, the program is intended to
provide outstanding graduates of foreign law schools with an opportunity to expand their knowledge of American legal processes and to
engage in comparative legal research.

DEGREES
Two graduate degrees are granted: the degree of Master of Laws
(LL.M.) and the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science (S.J.D.).
Master of Laws (LL.M.). The degree of Master of Laws is conferred
upon students who have obtained a first degree in law from this University or another having equivalent requirements; in unusual cases, this
requirement may be waived by a vote of the Faculty. Also such students
must fulfill the following requirements:
1. The completion of one academic year of residence in this School,
during which time credit must be obtained for not less than 10 semester60

�hours in courses or seminars not previously counted toward the first
degree in law. Students who have not previously taken, for their first
degree in law, a course or seminar in the general field of jurisprudence
must include such work in their program. Each graduate student's
course program is individually planned in light of the student's choice
of a thesis topic. To the extent necessary to establish a background
for his research, the Graduate Committee may in its discretion require a
graduate student to take course and seminar work in addition to the
minimum prescribed above. During their year of residence, graduate
students are required to maintain a superior scholarship record.
2. The completion of a thorough study of some approved legal topic
and the presentation of a paper embodying its results. The candidate's
thesis must be of such character as to be suitable for publication in the
Northwestern University Law Review or the Journal of Criminal Law,
Criminology and Police Science.
3. The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the Faculty.
Doctor of Juridical Science (S.].D.). The degree of Doctor of Juridical Science is conferred upon students who have obtained the degree
of Juris Doctor from this or some other university or college having
equivalent requirements for that degree or who have obtained the degree
of Bachelor of Laws from another university or college whose requirements for that degree are equivalent to those prescribed by this School
for the degree of Juris Doctor and who have fulfilled the following
requirements:
I. The completion of one academic year of residence in this School.
The time required for the completion of a candidate's work, however,
normally runs far beyond the period of residence required.
2. The completion of a study to be approved by the Faculty or its
designated committee. This study shall be one involving original research
and must be completed in such manner, both as to subject matter and
literary form, as to be, in the opinion of the Faculty, a significant and
scholarly contribution to legal science.
3. The completion of such other work, if any, as may be directed by
the Dean in the particular case.
4. The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the Faculty.
Faculty policy restricts this degree to candidates who have had substantial experience either in practicing or teaching law and who, through
their published writings, have evidenced their capacity for advanced
graduate work.
Candidates for this degree are afforded every facility for both library
and field research, and at some time during their residence they are given
the opportunity to instruct students along the line of their research . They
are given the rank of graduate Fellow and are accorded many of the
privileges of members of the Faculty.

THE
LIFE OF
THE
SCHOOL
A well seasoned aphorism, familiar to law students everywhere, says
that a law student receives his education from his classmates. Like many
an old saw, the observation contains within its exaggeration a kernel of
truth. Law school instruction is built upon student participation. Beyond the classroom the student continues his professional preparation in
give-and-take discussion, corridor debate, and friendly argument with
his fellows . The vitality of the Law School is measured by the quality
and vigor of its student body.
At Northwestern the entering student finds himself a member of a
closely knit community of men and women, bound together by a common
pursuit and by the rich traditions of the Law School's history. The student body is comparatively small, averaging approximately 500 students.
The modest size of the School and its instructional policies-division of
most courses into two or more sections and the wide range of electives
offered after the first year-promote wide acquaintance among students.
The beginner himself is carefully chosen through a policy of selective
admission designed to assure that every member of the class is capable
of legal study at the highest and most challenging level. His classmates
are high ranking graduates of the leading colleges and universities in the
United States and abroad .

�Students benefit from friendly relationships with fellow students coming from a wide variety of backgrounds. The typical student body consists of men and women from thirty-five states and eight or ten foreign
countries. One hundred and thirty-six colleges and universities are
represented by graduates enrolled in the Law School (see page 95). A
variety of undergraduate majors are included, and many students have
earned graduate degrees in other fields before entering Law School.
Law students as a whole tend to be individualistic and venturesome,
and a broad range of opinion and experience is encompassed in the
student body. The stimulating contacts of student life at the Law School
combine to develop a mature, tolerant, and broadened outlook in the
individual student. A healthy spirit of competition, helpful in encouraging each student to his best effort, exists concurrent with the kind of
comradeship and mutual respect so characteristic of the legal profession
generally.
LEGAL PUBLICATIONS

NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW
Foremost among the Law School's student activities is the publication
of the Northwestern University Law R eview, one of the nation's leading
professional journals. The Law R eview is circulated widely among lawyers
and judges and is often cited in briefs and judicial opinions. The tradition in the legal world of accepting as authoritative professio,nal journals,
written, edited, and published by men who have not ret achieved professional status, is unique. "\,York on the Law Review is at once the most
demanding and rewarding experience available to the law student.
A law journal entitled the Northwestern Law Review was first established by students of the School during the academic year 1892-93, within
five years of the appearance of the first student journal in the nation.
Publication was continued in 1906, after a ten-year suspension, under the
title Illinois Law Review.
For a period beginning in 1924 editorship was shared with the law
schools of the University of Chicago and the University of Illinois. In
1932 Northwestern students resumed full control, and in 1952 the name
was changed to Northwestern University Law Review.
At the end of the first year, students of the highest scholastic standing
are chosen to write commentary on legal problems for publication and to
carry on the research, editing, and related work of the Law Review.
Several more students are selected shortly before beginning their second
year on the basis of a writing competition. Selection is one of the highest
honors and greatest responsibilities the Law School can bestow. Because
of their rich educational experience and resulting excellent qualification
for any field of the profession, Law Review editors are sought and pre66

£erred after graduation by leading law firms, government, and private
business. The fact that the student body is not large means that at Northwestern the opportunities for Law Review participation are somewhat
broader than in many other schools.
Law Review participation is hard work, which requires the members
to return several weeks before school begins in the fall and demands a
major portion of their time during the academic year. One day each
spring is reserved for a Law Review student-faculty softball game and a
dinner program caricaturing the foibles of the professors.

THE JOURNAL OF CRIMINAL LAW,
CRIMINOLOGY AND POLICE SCIENCE
Another Law School publication that is available for the publishable
products of student scholarship is the Journal of Criminal Law, Criminology and Police Science. This Journal, with a world-wide circulation,
is the foremost publication of its kind. It has been in continuous publication since 1910. Professor Fred E. Inbau is its editor-in-chief and
managing director. He is assisted by a Board of Consulting Editors composed of outstanding legal scholars and criminologists.
The section of the Journal devoted to Police Science is under the
editorship of Ordway Hilton, Examiner of Questioned Documents, New
York City. He is assisted by a Board of Consulting Editors in the fields
of police administration, criminalistics, and forensic sciences generally.
The student board of the Journal, like the editorial board of the
Law Review, is chosen from among the highest ranking students at the
end of the first year of Law School work and bears responsibility for
67

�preparing and editing the case abstracts, notes, and comments appearing in the student section of the Journal. Although several law schools
have so-called "intramural" law reviews in addition to regular published
journals to broaden opportunities for student participation in work of
this kind, the availability of a second published periodical for student
work is rare, if not unique, especially in a moderate-sized school.

JULIUS H. MINER MOOT COURT COMPETITION
To provide continuing practice and instruction in the arts of appellate advocacy, the first-year course in Moot Court is supplemented by the
Julius H. Miner Moot Court Competition for advanced students in the
School. Made possible by an endowment memorializing Judge Julius H.
Miner, the program is conducted, under faculty supervision, by thirdyear students comprising the Moot Court Board and involves the preparation of appellate court briefs and the presentation of oral arguments
before panels of judges, practicing attorneys, and faculty members. The
cases typically raise issues of current legal importance, more complex and
challenging than those assigned in the regular first-year course. The final
argument is conducted before the entire sudent body, customarily with
distinguished judges from the federal bench. Those who have served
as presiding- judges for final arguments include former Asrnciate Justice
Arthur J. Goldberg (an alumnus of the Law School, Class of 1930) and
Associate Justices Bryon R. White, Tom C. Clark, Potter Stewart and
Thurgood Marshall of the Supreme Court of the United States. The
School team in the National Moot Court Competition is chosen from
among the Miner Competition finalists.

STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY:
THE JUNIOR BAR ASSOCIATION
Law students are only a few short steps removed from .the practice of
law. The qualities of personal integrity and responsibility essential in
the profession are best fostered not by exhortation but by actual exercise
and experience. In the belief that the most effective way to develop
maturity and responsibility among the students is to vest responsibility
in the students themselves, the Law School has conferred a large measure
of authority upon the students' professional organization, the Junior
Bar Association.
All students are members of the Association and through it work out
the problems of student government and School activities. Its declared
objects are to encourage and promote the highest standards of integrity
and industry to the end that its members may be properly equipped to
enter the profession of the law. The officers and Board of Governors of
the Association are elected by the students.
HONOR CODE
An important product of the Law School's philosophy of student
responsibility is the honor code and the broad authority granted to the
students, through the Junior Bar Association, with respect to its enforcement and implementation. The basic tenet of the Honor Code is that
the law student, like the lawyer, should be subject to unyielding standards
of honorable conduct. In reliance upon the students' collective sense of
responsibility, Law School examinations are unmonitored and unsupervised by faculty, staff, or proctors. The honor code imposes a strict obligation upon each student to report any apparent infractions to the
69

�students constituting the Board of Governors of the Association. After a
full hearing, the Board has the duty to make findings and to recommend
appropriate disciplinary action to the Faculty.
The Code covers all academic phases of Law School activity. It is of
special note that this system has been chosen by the students and that
students administer the system which guarantees the honor of the Law
School community. The habits of honor fostered by this honor system
stand the young lawyer in good stead before the bench and bar.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES
The student body bears important responsibilities as well in the supplemental educational programs of the School. The Junior Bar Association traditionally sponsors a series of frequent lectures, bringing outstanding lawyers, judges, and political figures to the Law School to address the students on subjects of general interest. Informal recepti0ns are
held fequently in Lowden Hall to afford the student opportunities for
social contact and casual conversation with members of the faculty and
distinguished visitors to the School.
A wide variety of activities is carried on under student leadership
through the Junior Bar Association to serve the needs and interests of
fellow students. The Association takes a leading role in planning and
conducting the annual orientation program for new students, assists them
with registration, and arranges for a reception and small advisory meetings, all designed to welcome the beginner and to ease the educational
transition.
The Association operates an exchange for the purchase and sale of
used casebooks and course materials, supplementing the facilities of the
University Bookstore in Abbott Hall and helping students who must
economize.
In recognition of the Law School's place in the legal profession at
large, the Northwestern Junior Bar Association is affiliated with the
American Law Student Association, the national organization of students
in training for the law, sponsored by the American Bar Association.
The varied range of opportunities afforded to Law School students
for service to their fellows, to the School, and to the profession provides valuable trammg in the exercise of those responsibilities that
distinguish the lawyer's calling as a profession.
RESEARCH ASSISTANTSHIPS
Each year a number of second and third year students are selected
to serve as Research Assistants to individual members of the Faculty.
These appointments carry a modest stipend but are valued primarily for
70

�the opportumt1es they afford for close part1opation m the ongoing
scholarly work and publications of the Faculty.

VOLUNTARY LEGAL SERVICES
Recent developments in the law requiring expanded representation
for indigent criminal defendants, and the recent proliferation of voluntary and charitable agencies providing legal services in civil matters to
members of disadvantaged groups, have greatly increased the numbers
of opportunities open to students to give voluntary service from which
both satisfaction and valuable experience can be gained. For example,
the School has provided a Legal Clinic Program since 1910, and as of
February, 1969, the School, with the assistance of grants from the Council
on Legal Education for Professional Responsibility, Inc., the Legal Aid
Bureau of United Charities, and Chicago attorney Arnold I. Shure, has
established its own office located at the Law School, known as the
Northwestern Legal Assistance Clinic. The Clinic provides legal services
to persons who are patients of the medical and dental clinics operated by
Northwestern University. Law students may serve in the Clinic under the
direction and supervision of the Clinic's staff attorneys and may assist in
the interviewing and counseling of clients, the preparation of pleadings
and other legal documents, necessary legal research, interviewing witnesses, and preparing for and conducting trials.
Other opportunities for such voluntary participation by law students
are facilitated by the School's excellent location in a major urban center.
Outlying offices of the Legal Aid Bureau of United Charities accept law
student volunteer services, as do other agencies such as the Neighborhood
Legal Assistance Center, a group of young attorneys who practice with
law firms in Chicago and who volunteer their services to needy residents
of the near north side of Chicago.
RECREATION AND SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
The law student soon learns the truth of the old saying that "the law
is a jealous mistress." He will not be able to indulge extensively in
amusements or spend much time in social events. Nevertheless, no man
or woman can accomplish a maximum of work without a reasonable
amount of recreation.
Organized social activities at the Law School are sponsored by the
Junior Bar Association. In addition to the coffee hours, the Association
holds a dance for all students once each semester.
A program of intramural athletics offers participation in organized
sports, and nearby beaches, golf courses, and other facilities are available
for individual recreation. Tickets are offered at reduced rates for the Uni71

�versity's intercollegiate athletic programs on the undergraduate campus
in Evanston.
Many opportunities for entertainment and cultural pursuits afforded
in a city such as Chicago are close at hand.
STUDENT WIVES
A useful auxiliary of the Junior Bar Association is the organization
o( the wives of Law School students. A substantial number of the student body are married.
At the social gatherings of the Law Wives, the student's wife can visit
with faculty wives, discuss matters of common interest, and spend a
pleasant evening during her husband's long hours in the library. To help
her to understand the work that demands so much of her husband's time
and attention, the law wife may enjoy an informal talk by one of the
faculty members on the vicissitudes of law study or a legal problem of
general interest. Occasionally professors have conducted abbreviated
versions of their Law School courses for the student wives to give them
a first-hand view of the educational process in which their husbands are
so deeply involved.

that the School will commence with 50
students. The tui tion fees are to be $ 100
per year."

-Letter from Henry Booth, first Dean
of the Law School, to his wife, dated
June 30, 1859.

ADMISSION,
TUITION,
FEES , AND
FINANCIAL AID
Every year the Law School draws many hundreds of applications
for admission from every state in America and from abroad. In recent
years there have been five or more applicants for each place in the entering class.
As a private institution Northwestern must rely principally upon
tuition income and gi fts from alumni and others to meet the not inconsiderable expenses of maintaining the facul ty, library, and other
facilities of a law school of the first rank. Fortunately, a substantial
portion of the gifts made to the University and the Law School is available to provide financial assistance to students in need of it.

ADMISSION
The admission policies of Northwestern University are not predicated
upon any consider ation whatever of race, color, or creed, but completely
upon the competence of the individual.
Since its early years the Law School has followed a policy of selective
admission to preserve its character as a cohesive academic community of
modest size and to assure continued educational standards of the highest
order. In consequence, the School is unable to accept many applicants
who are capable of successfully completing legal studies and qualifying
for the practice of law.
73

�Applicants are selected for admission upon the basis of demonstrated
scholarship, intellectual capacity, and qualities of character requisite to
the profession. The School endeavors to admit only those applicants
whose records indicate that they will successfully complete the course of
study.
MAKING APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION
Application forms and information concerning admission requirements may be obtained by writing to the Office of Admissions, Northwestern University School of Law, 357 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago,
Illinois 60611.
Students beginning the study of law enter the School at the opening
of the first semester in September.
Before enrollment the student must have obtained a Bachelor's degree
from an approved college or university.
The application form must be supplemented by a transcript from
each college or university attended. Except in unusual cases, transcripts
should not be supplied until they include a record of three full academic
years. If the application is approved, the applicant is asked to supply
a final transcript certifying the award of a Bachelor's degree, unless the
transcripts originally submitted contain that certification.
The application must also be supported by a report of the applicant's
score on the Law School Admission Test. Northwestern's Law School
joined with several other schools in sponsoring the development of this
test, which is designed to measure the student's general aptitude for the
study of law. Information on how to arrange to take the test, administerd
by the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey, is supplied
with the admission forms. The test may be taken either before or after
the forms are filed, although an applicant for admission in September
should ordinarily plan to register for either the test given in the fall or
the test given in the winter of the preceding academic year. The Educational Testing Service should be requested to report the applicant's score
directly to the School of Law.
An applicant is also asked to submit recommendations on forms furnished by the School from two college or university instructors. The
application fee is $15.
VISITS TO THE SCHOOL
An applicant need not appear for a personal interview unless requested by the Committee on Admissions. Prospective students are invited and encouraged, however, to visit the School. Ordinarily if the
School is in session, arrangements can be made for the visitor to attend
a regular class session. The School would appreciate the visitor telephon74

�ing or writing in advance to the Secretary of Admissions for an appointment.
During the normal college vacation periods, the number of prospective students wishing to visit the School is large. This fact and the
large volume of admissions mail and other business in these periods
make it almost impossible to give extended personal attention to visitors
at these times. The School holds an "open house" during the Christmas
holiday and all applicants are urged to visit the School on that occasion.
Each year a number of applicants seek personal interviews with the
aim of thus enhancing their chances of gaining admission. Although
the Admissions staff is always happy to answer questions to the best of
its ability, applicants should be aware that decisions are made by the
Committee on Admissions and that the only effective way to ensure full
Committee consideration of special circumstances is to append a written
statement of them to the application form.
The Secretary of Admissions is ordinarily available to speak with
visitors and can answer authoritatively or secure answers to questions
not answered by this bulletin or other printed material.
WHEN TO APPLY
The completed application form should be submitted by January
first. Applications not completed by April first will be considered only if
spaces are available. It is not necessary to wait until the transcripts, test
score, and recommendations can be supplied before filing the application. Applicants wishing to apply for financial assistance should refer
to the information given on page 80.
Applications are considered and acted upon as soon as the supporting
information has been received. Determinations are made upon a balanced evaluation of the applicant's college record and the Law School
Admission Test score, supplemented by the required recommendations
and other information bearing on his capacity and qualification for law
study. Each applicant is considered carefully and individually. The trend
of undergraduate achievement, performance in particular fields and
courses, and the demands and influence of other activities and personal
circumstaffces are weighed and taken into account. Every doubtful application is thoroughly discussed and examined by a committee of faculty
members, which may seek further information from the applicant, his
college, 0r his professors.
Each applicant who is accepted for admission, whether or not he has
been awarded financial assistance, is required to make a deposit of $50
by April 1 of the year of entrance or within thirty days after n@tice of
acceptance, whichever is later. Upon registration the deposit is applied
toward the payment of tuition or fees.
75

�No applicant previously enrolled in another law school is admitted
either as a beginning student or as a transfer student if he is ineligible
to continue study at that school.

TRANSFER
The admission of students previously enrolled in other law schools
who wish to become candidates for the degree of Juris Doctor depends
upon the applicant's achievements in law study as well as upon the factors
which control the admission of beginning students. Generally stated, the
standard requires a highly creditable law school record.
Transfer applicants should submit the application form with the
$15 application fee, transcripts from each college and university attended, including the law school from which transfer is contemplated,
and two recommendations from former instructors, at least one a law
school instructor. A statement of law school class standing also should be
submitted, and the Law School Admission Test score report must be
furnished.
The granting of credit for courses completed in other schools and the
allowance of advanced standing rest within the discretion of the Dean of
the School. In no event is transfer credit given for law school work in
schools which are not members of the Association of American Law
Schools or for courses in which the student received a grade below C or
its equivalent.

PRE-LEGAL STUDY
A Bachelor's degree in arts or science is required for admission to the
Law School, but no specific fields of major study or particular courses are
prescribed. The purpose of the requirement is to provide the prospective
lawyer with a sound liberal education for the discharge of his broader
professional responsibilities as well as to provide a foundation for law
school training. Since the reach of the law's concerns may be as wide as
the range of human behavior, no particular course of undergraduate
study confers a special advantage in the law.
College curricula vary, the content of courses bearing the same title
may be dissimilar, and teaching attitudes and emphases differ. Accordingly, suggestions must be general. Courses in such fields as history, economics, anthropology, sociology, government, and political science may
help the student to understand the structure of society and the problems
of social ordering with which the law is concerned. Studies in philosophy
and literature may impart a familiarity with the traditions of thought
that have influenced legal developments. The examination of human
behavior in courses in psychology and its analysis through statistical
method may also prove worthwhile.
76

�In developing the capacities and skills of the lawyer, the college student should pursue studies that enhance his power to express himself with clarity and force . English, foreign language courses, and public
speaking can be recommended, but the capacities may be developed as
well in other courses in which written work of high quality is demanded.
For the systematic ordering of abstractions and ideas, the physical, natural, and mathematical sciences, in addition to logic, are suggested.
Apart from subject matter, the student preparing for the study of law
should take courses of sufficient difficulty to try his capacities to the
utmost to assist in the development of the rigorous intellectual discipline
essential to success in law school. He would be well advised, in addition,
to pursue his studies far enough in some definite field to attain a mastery
of the subject. The typical student is more likely to extend himself
and thereby to increase his capacities for law study if he follows the
bent of his own interests and tastes.
It is perhaps advisable, however, for the prospective law student to
avoid undergraduate courses in law designed for men preparing for other
callings and duplicating law school work. Ordinarily, the time and effort
are better spent in studies in other fields.
In general, the undergraduate college student is best advised not to try
to prepare particularly and narrowly for his law school studies, but to
prepare for his life as a lawyer by obtaining the best available general
education. He will find that what is b est for law school is also the best
in liberal educa tion-a course of study that develops in the student the
capacity to understand, to think for himself, and to express himself
effectively.

TUITION, FEES, AND EXPENSES
The cost of a year of law study varies with the needs, h abits, a nd circumstances of the student. As a base from which individual estimates may be
drawn, the sum of $3,200 ap proxima tes the total expe nse for the academic yea r
of the average unmarried student residing in Abbott Hall, the Law School
dormitory. Of this total about $1,850 is required for tuition , fees, books, a nd
supplies. The remainder represents the typical expenditure for room, board,
and personal needs.

TUITION
The student's total investment in his legal education, although large in absolute terms, is insubstantial in comparison with its total returns in the decad es
of his profess ional life. Short-term economies often prove wasteful in the long
run. In the interests of its students the Law School has made every effort to
hold down the costs, but in the same interes ts it has refused to sacrifice any
of the elements of a legal education of the highest quality. The cost of each

77

�student's education is only partly covered by his tuition payments. A substantial portion is paid from income from endowments and from annual gifts of
alumni a nd friends of Northwestern.

PAYMENT OF TUITION AND FEES
Tuition and fees are paid by semesters, rather than by the full academic
year. Payments are du e in the first few weeks aft er the commen cement of the
term upon the date specified in the statement sent to each student after registration. The Cashier's Office, convenien tly located on the first floor of Abbott
H all, r eceives these p ayments.
The Division of Student Finance, on the first flo or of Abbott Hall, issues
the statemen ts and makes all adjustments.

WITHDRAWAL AND REFUNDS
Official withdrawal forms are available from the R egistrar of the School
of Law. Students who withdraw before the end of one-fourth of the term are
h eld for one-fourth of the tuition for the term. Students who withdraw a fter
the first one-fourth of the term and before the middl e of the term are h eld for
on e-half of the tuition for the term. Students who withdraw after the m iddle
of the term are h eld for full tuition. R egardless of the time of withdrawal,
students are h eld for all fees. In the case of exclusion for nonpayment of
tuition, the same ch arges are made in accordance with the above schedule. In
all cases, either the d ate on which the studen t withdrew from classes and fil ed
a written withdrawal notice with the R egistrar of the Law School or the date
of formal exclusion is used in figurin g any adjustment on tuition.

REBATES TO FACULTY, STAFF, AND INSTRUCTORS
Undergraduate and gradu ate students in the fo llowing categori es are eligible
to apply for certain tuition rebates of up to 50 percent: (a) full-time faculty
a nd staff members listed on the regular twelve-month payroll of the U niversity;
1 1n many courses it is necessary to supply mimeographed materials to supplement ass igned casebooks. This flat charge covers the cost of supplies and labor to prepare such sup plcmenrn ry material. In a few cou rses mimeographed mate rials are prepared by the in structor to replace completely
an assigned casebook. In those instan ces where the volume of materia l is substanli al an additional
charge (less than the cost of the usual casebook) is made. In neither situation is there any charge
made for the time of the instructor and his secretarial ass istanLs spe nt in research, editing, and
cutting Lhe stencils for the materials.

79

�(b) dependent sons and daughters of such persons; (c) full-time employees of
affiliated institutions; (d) graduate students appointed as instructors and teaching part-time at Northwestern.
Information concerning these rebates and application blanks are available
at the Student Finance Office, Abbott Hall. Applications must be filed with
that office before registration each term.

STUDENT DEPOSIT ACCOUNT
The University maintains a student deposit account at the Cashier's Office,
Abbott Hall, as an accommodation to students. Students may write only counter
checks payable to themselves against their deposits. There is no charge for this
service, and no interest is paid on deposits.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND OTHER
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
If a student has the ability and motivation necessary for the study of
law, the School is committed to providing all possible as,istance so
that he can reach his educational goals. Through scholarships, loans, and
a limited amount of part-time work, many students are able to complete
their law studies at Northwestern with a minimum of initial savings or
outside financial aid.
Approximately one-third of the School's entering students receive
financial assistance in the form of scholarships or loans. The amounts
of the awards vary from a portion of tuition to full tuition plus a stipend
for subsistence. Ordinarily an award of financial assistance to a first-year
student is renewed for his second and third years of law study provided
he maintains a creditable class standing and his financial situation remains unchanged.
All or part of an award may be made subject to an obligation of
repayment after graduation. In these cases, repayment is ordinarily
made on an installment basis during the first few years following graduation. Interest does not accrue until the end of the first year after
graduation, and thereafter the rate is low.
Awards of financial assistance are made upon the basis of academic
promise and need. Each application is individually considered by a committee of faculty members and each award is determined by an individual
appraisal of the student's qualifications for law study and monetary
needs. For students of exceptional ability who have adequate resources
for law study, a limited number of honorary scholarships are awarded
annually in recognition of pre-legal achievement. These special scholarships, described below, carry only a nominal financial award, so that
available funds may be devoted to the assistance of students who otherwise would be unable to study law.
80

�MAKING APPLICATION FOR ASSISTANCE
Application forms for financial assistance may be obtained by wntmg
t0 the Office of Admissions of the Law School. Special application forms
are required for the Clarion De'ii\Titt Hardy Scholarships, described below.
An application for financial assistance need not accompany the application for admission, but should be submitted as early as possible and in
any event not later than March 1 of the year of proposed entrance. Information on when to apply for admission appears on page 75.

GRADUATE STUDY: ADMISSION AND
FELLOWSHIPS
ADMISSION TO GRADUATE STUDY AND TO CANDIDACY
FOR ADVANCED DEGREES
The admission of students who have been awarded a first degree m
law to graduate study or to candidacy for the degree of Master of Laws or
Doctor of Juridical Science is a matter which rests within the discretion
of the Committee on Graduate Studies.
Although foreign graduate students whose native language is not
English are eligible for admission as graduate students, they normally
are not admitted as candidates for a degree until they have completed
one semester's work as graduate students and have demonstrated during
that time their capacity to complete successfully the degree requirements.
Experience indicates that foreign students whose native lang·uage is
not English have great difficulty in meeting the requirements unless they
have a good command of written and spoken English.
The School's graduate degrees are described fully on pages 60-61.
Application forms and additional information may be secured by writing
to the •C ommittee on Graduate Studies, Northwestern University School
of Law, 357 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60611.
TUITION, FEES, AND EXPENSES
Full information concerning tuition and fees for graduate study
appears on pages 77-79 of the bulletin.
The expenses of an unmarried student for the academic year, in87

�eluding books, board and room, , and incidentals (but excluding tuition
and fees) should be approximately $2,000.
Accomodations for both married and unmarried graduate students
are available on the University's Chicago campus.

FELLOWSHIPS IN INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES
In 1957, the Ford Foundation made a grant to the Law School for
expansion of its program in International Legal Studies. The sum of
$7,600 a year is specifically made available for two graduate fellowships
for two foreign lawyers and students. Applicants interested in pursuing
international legal studies as their major interest are given preference
in the awarding of these Ford Fellowships.
The Law School has long been interested in international law and
related subjects. The late Dean Wigmore inaugurated this interest and
laid the foundation for a substantial collection of international and
foreign law materials available in the Law School Library. For many
years the School has offered a basic introductory course in International
Law. The School has also offered courses and seminars in International
Organizations, International Business Transactions, Comparative Law,
Admiralty, and Common Market.
The J ames Nelson Raymond Fellowship is awarded on a competitive
basis to applicants, domestic or foreign, interested in any field of legal
study, including international legal studies. The amount of each fellowship is $3,800. From that amount, tuition and fees are deducted. The
amount of each fellowship award, after these deductions, is paid in ten
installments, the first being available on September 15.
Since 1961 , the General Electric Foundation has made an annual grant
of $5,000 for research in the field of problems of international and foreign
antitrust law.
More information on the Program of International Legal Studies
appears on page 59.
CRIMINAL LAW FELLOWSHIPS
For information on Criminal Law fellowships, see "The Criminal
Law Program" on page 58.
GENERAL INFORMATION CONCERNING
GRADUATE FELLOWSHIPS
Additional information concerning the fellowships described above,
including application requirements, filing deadlines, and award dates,
may be obtained by writing to the Committee on Graduate Studies of
the Law School.
88

�Normally, fellowships are not awarded to foreign students who already
have spent a year in this country under another scholarship grant. Fellowships are granted for one year only.
None of the graduate fellowships described above contains provisions
for travel expenses. Students must make their own travel arrangements.
Successful fellowship applicants should also bring sufficient funds for
personal expenses from the time of arrival until September 15.

THE SCHOOL
AND ITS
ALUMNI
The bonds formed in the years of study at the Law School are enduring ones. The School through its Placement Service offers assistance
to the graduate in finding a position which promises satisfaction both in
economic terms and in terms of self-realization and contribution. And
the School's alumni band together both to keep alive memories and
friendships of student days and to provide the support so important
to the School.

PLACEMENT
At graduation the Northwestern law student joins the century-long
procession of Law School alumni. A wide range of choice is open. To
provide its graduates with advice, guidance, and a broad selection of
opportunities for their legal careers, the Law School maintains a placement service under the direction of Assistant Dean Lewis F. Treleaven.
Through general announcements to the profession and particular
:inqwnes, the Placement Service gathers information on professional
90

�opportunities and openings. The Placement Service compiles complete listing of these opportunities, maintains files for the use of prosp ective graduates, and posts announcements of new openings to keep the
student's information current.
That the bars are overcrowded has been repeated in each generation.
But the demand for well trained able young lawyers has not diminished,
and the rising level of starting salaries gives evidence of the professional
need. Each year the Placem ent Service receives inquiries and requests
from law firms, corporations, and government agencies for many times the
number of available graduates.
A majority of the Law School's alumni are en gaged in the private
practice of law. Some h ave chosen to remain in Chicago, while others
have settled in cities and towns throughout the United States. In large
firms and in individual practice, Northwestern graduates rank as leaders
of the b ar in n early every state in the nation and in several foreign countri es. In service to th eir profession as well as their clients, they have occupied th e presidencies of the American, state, and local bar associa tions.
Not all alumni elect the rewards of private practi ce. Furthering a
stron 3' tradition of public service, a number of men in each graduating
class accept positions with governm ent a t the national, state, or local
level. Working with prosecuting and investigating agencies, on government boards and commission s, and on the staffs of government departments, these m en are often vested with m ajor responsibilities and acquire
wide experience early in their professional lives. After a period of
government service many enter private practice, where their experien ce
in government is of great value. Others make public service a career and
attain high public office, elective or appointive.
The roster of Law School alumni includes governors and United
States Senators, cabinet members, department heads, diplomats, mayors,
attorney gen erals, prosecutors, legislators, and government advisers.
The strength of the Iorthwestern tradition of public service is illustrated by a striking statistic: in more than half the Presidential campaigns of the p ast seventy years, a Law School alumnus h as been either
the ca ndid ate or a strong contender for the nomination of on e of the
two major parties.
In the judi ciary, Northwestern m en h ave served with di stinction on
the benches of the high est courts, both federal and state. For the topra nking st udents, there are opportunities for clerkships with justices and
j udges of the federa l and state courts.
Openings in the field of law teaching are not numerous, and the
financi al rewards are not great; however, through the years North western ,
for its size, has con tributed more than its sh are of the nation's law
teachers. I ts graduates have joined the facu lties of nearly all the major
law schools in the United States, and many Northwestern men have

served as deans, university presidents, and leaders in other branches of
education.
An expanding field of opportunity beyond the limits of traditional
practice is offered the Law School graduate interested in business, industry, and finance. In increasing recognition of the values of legal training,
corporations, banks, and companies in a wide range of enterprise have
come to seek Law School graduates not only for their legal staffs but for
executive positions as well. Attractive starting salaries and opportunities
92

�for advancement in management have combined to draw substantial
number of graduates of the Law School. Alumni have risen to principal
executive posts in many of the nation's largest corporations in such fields
as transportation, oil, retailing, insurance, finance, public utilities, and
manufacturing.
From the array of professional opportunities open to him, the graduating student must choose for himself. It is the function of the Law
School's Placement Service to aid him in exploring the possibilities and to
arrange the necessary contacts.
Each year a large number of law firms from major cities throughout
the United States send partners to the Law School to interview advanced
students. Government agencies, corporations, and banks also send representatives to the School for interviews. In addition to the hundreds of
nersonal interviews conducted annually at the Law School, the Placement
Service arranges for interviews of students in large numbers at law offices,
government agencies, and corporate headquarters.
A biog-raphical summary is prepared and duplicated for each prospective graduate seeking a position, and appropriate letters of introduction
and recommendation are furnished.
Beyond its service to current graduates, the Placement Service also
handles the temporary placement of students with law firms and government agencies for summer vacation periods, in Chicago and elsewhere,
typically between the student's second and third years, and the placement
of alumni of earlier years who are returning from military service or are
seeking a change of position.

THE LAW ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
Over the years the Law School has enjoyed the loyal support of its
alumni. They commemorated the Law School's centennial by contributing substantially to the construction of Robert R. McCormick Hall and
the Owen L. Coon Library, and their generous annual gifts to the Law
Alumni Fund provide scholarships and significant support for the general
program of the School.
Many alumni assist directly in the educational program. A number
serve as judges in the Moot Court program. In addition, alumni are
frequently asked to draw upon their practical experience and special
knowledge in particular fields of law by participating in cour~e work
or addressing student groups. They render invaluable assistance in connection with the placement program.
Each year alumni reunions are held during the meetings of the American Bar Association and various state bar associations. In addition, an
alumni dinner is held each spring in Chicago with a prominent guest
speaker. Also, a faculty-alumni luncheon is held in Chicago each fall.

�"Where there is arbitrary power, there
is no occasion to study the law; when
the law begins to reign, its teachers
and practicers come forth ..."

-David Dudley Field, at the
dedication of the Law School,
September 21, 1859.

LAW
STUDY

AT

NORTHWESTERN
For more than a century the School of Law has been dedicated to
the education of men for all branches of endeavor in the law under
the highest standards of academic and professional excellence. This
dedication marks the character of the Law School today.
Professional training of the highest order and the development of
each student's unique capabilities are fostered by a close working relationship between student and teacher. Early in its history the Law
School adopted a policy of limited enrollment to promote educational
quality. Today Northwestern remains a law school of medium size,
small in comparison with others of national standing. The result is
that each student is the beneficiary of a significant share of the resources of the School. Instruction is conducted by faculty members who
devote their ·full ·energies to legal education.
The first law school in its state and region and among the oldest in
the nation, Northwestern enjoys a rich heritage.
The School's program of instruction is designed to prepare students
for the broad challenge of the future. Long identified with progressive
movements in legal education, the Law School has always sought in its
program of instruction to foster an understanding of the formative principles that guide growth and change in the law, to educate lawyers not
for the demands of the practice of the past or even of the present, but
for the years ahead in which today's students will live out their professional lives. The most recent, and perhaps the most significant, reshaping of the School's curriculum was approved by the Faculty in the
spring of 1966 and is now being put into effect.

�" . . . these noble buildings, designed for
one of the noblest uses to which any
building can be put- the teaching of Jaw."

-Sir William Searle Holdsworth,
at the dedication of the
Law School buildings, .June 16, 1927.

THE
SCHOOL
Unlike the physical sciences, legal learning requires no elaborate
apparatus. For the serious student, however, a stimulating and congenial environment contributes to the educational process. Professional
training of the highest order requires more than a comprehensive library and classrooms designed for effective teaching. There must be
places for reflection and concentration. There must be arrangements
conducive to informal interchange of thought and opinion between
student and student and between student and teacher. The atmosphere
should imbue the student of law with an appreciation for the ancient
traditions of the bar and for the professional heritage he will share.

LOCATION
The Law School is situated on the shore of Lake Michigan near the
center of Chicago. To the south, along the lake front, lie Grant Park,
a series of yacht basins, recreational facilities, museums of art and
natural history, a planetarium, and an aquarium. To the north extends
the Gold Coast, an area of residential apartments separated from the
lake by a continuous series of parks, beaches, golf courses, and boating
facilities. Nearby, to the west, is one of the city's centers of art and
entertainment. A half-mile to the southwest is the Chicago Loop, the
central business and shopping area, and the legal and financial center of
the region. Here, convenient for student visits, are located the offices of
federal, state, and municipal government, including trial and appellate
courts of both the state and federal governments, ranging from the local
small claims courts to the United States Court of Appeals.
IO

�The Law School buildings form a quadrangle in a park-like
setting on the shores of Lake Michigan - yet scarcely more than
a half mile from the Loop .

The Law School constitutes part of the self-contained professional
campus of Northwestern University. Surrounding the Law School are
the separate buildings of the Graduate School of Business Administration and the Medical and Dental Schools. Also on the campus are
Thorne Hall, an auditorium available for major convocations and ceremonies, and Abbott Hall, the eighteen-floor student residence for the
men and women enrolled in these graduate schools.
Living and studying on a self-sufficient graduate campus, the law
student remains free from the distractions of undergraduate life. The
original campus of the University, twelve miles north in suburban
Evanston, where the main body of undergraduate students and about
1,900 graduate students are enrolled, remains readily accessible to Law
School students for cultural and athletic events and for seminars and
inform al contacts with those working in other academic disciplines related to the concerns of the lawyer and legal scholar.
LAW SCHOOL BUILDINGS
The Law School itself consists of a complex of buildings arranged to
form a quadrangle occupying the block between Chicago Avenue and
11

�Superior Street. The original buildings, Levy Mayer Hall and the
Elbert H . Gary Library, were completed in 1926. Robert R. McCormick
Hall and the Owen L. Coon Library were completed in 1960. The
quadrangle completely encloses a quiet garden.
In interior design and ornament the buildings of the School are rich
in the lore of the law. About 2,500 portraits, engravings, etchings, and
photographs, collected by the late Dean John H. Wigmore in the United
States, England, and on the Continent are hung about the School to
illustrate the men and events of the law throughout history and throughout the world. Both libraries and Robert R. McCormick Hall are airconditioned.
CLASSROOMS
The Law School contains seven major classrooms. These generous
facilities make it possible to schedule a number of classes at the same
time, reducing the number of students in each class meeting. Most
classes, including all those in the first year, are divided into sections.
As a consequence, the number of students attending a class seldom exceeds eighty-five and is often much smaller. Such classes, small by
general law school standards, encourage responsible participation by
each student in the probing, analytical discussion that is the mark of
legal education at Northwestern. Lincoln Hall, the largest of the classrooms, was modeled after the British House of Commons in dimensions
and seating arrangement. The entire School, student body, and faculty,
can be accommodated in it with room to spare for guests.
In addition to the major classrooms, the School has four seminar
rooms scaled and furnished to provide comfortable and congenial surroundings for smaller study groups. Here meet the seminars of the ·
second and third years, numbering typically from ten to twenty, seated

12

�Seminars meet in rooms well suited to round-table discussion by
groups of ten to twenty .

informally around a table with one or more faculty members for a
detailed analysis of problem areas lying at the frontiers of legal development. In such study, the student necessarily bears a large measure
of responsibility for giving direction and substance to the discussion.
For practice and instruction in the arts of advocacy, the School has
a fully equipped modern courtroom. Complete with witness stand, jury
box, counsel tables, and seating for spectators, it accommodates not only
mock appeals but full-scale practice trials.

LIBRARY
The indispensable instruments of the lawyer's calling are books, and
a comprehensive and well-arranged library is essential to effective training for the profession. The library with its associated research facilities
is the heart of the Law School.
The Northwestern Law School library consists of two buildings, integrated physically and administered as a unit, the Elbert H. Gary Library
and the Owen L. Coon Library. In combination, the library occupies a
13

�full side of the Law School quadrangle extending from Chicago Avenue
to Superior Street and includes four floors of working area. The constantly growing collection of about 240,000 volumes is among the largest
law school libraries in the Western vVorld.
More important than size, however, is the utility of the collection.
The main reading room of the library occupies the highest floor of the
building and is divided by shelved partitions into dozens of secluded
but well-lighted alcoves fitted with large working tables and chairs to
provide convenient accommodations close by the books. The arrangement is repea ted on the lower floors, with the addition of a number of
individual carrels for sustained and concentrated research. Included on
a lower level are glass-walled typing areas with individual sound-proof
carrels open to any student who may wish to type a research paper or to
reorganize his course notes.
The library is operated with an open-stack policy to bring readers
and books together without unnecessary formalities. The student is free
to browse and to search at will through the collection, and he may call
upon either the expert full-time staff of sixteen or the eighteen assistants
if he is in need of guidance, aid, or suggestions. The library is open
daily throughout the year and in the evenings as well whenever the
School is in session. To provide for the heavy demands of faculty research, a separate vvorking collection is maintained in the Faculty Library.

Open stacks and amp le work ing s pace make th e librar y a comfortable and convenient place in w hich to study.

�The course of instruction has been designed not only to provide
basic instruction in the use of legal materials but to encourage full use
of the library's large re~ources and to afford every student extensive
opportunity for independent scholarly research.
The library's collection includes substantially all the reported decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and territories,
Great Britain and the Commonwealth, together with their statutes and
session laws and subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, textbooks, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary to form a
complete working collection for every legal system in the English language. A well selected comprehensive collection of United States government documents is maintained for the teaching program and for the
use of the legal profession generally. A complete collection of documents is available at Deering Library on the Evanston campus, which
is a designated depository library. This Anglo-American collection is
supplemented by a selection of works in the fields of history, economics,
government, and the other social and behavioral sciences. The library
also receives every current legal periodical of general interest printed in
the English language.
More than one-third of the total collection is made up of works in the
fields of foreign and international law. The comprehensive materials in
foreign law include the codes, treatises, decisions, and journals of all
major European countries and Japan, and good working collections in
Latin-American law. At an early date the library began to build a complete collection in the law of nations, going beyond the domestic laws
of the separate countries to emphasize the rules of law controlling their
relations with each other. This large collection includes the documents
of the international organizations, the international courts, treaty series
and official diplomatic documents, treatises and monographs and periodicals from all parts of the world. The whole permits original and useful
work to be carried on in the field of public international law.
Holdings in other specialized fields include a comprehensive collection of treatises, periodicals, and documents in criminal law and its
administration, and a special collection of materials in aeronautics, including aviation law, commerce, and other works in the field exclusive
of technical engineering publications. In addition, the library includes
outstanding collections of medieval law, jurisprudence, legal history,
and comparative law, and valuable resources in Roman law. Especially
notable is the Williams Collection of Legal Instruments elating from
A.D. 1300 to 1700 which comprises more than five hundred original
manuscript instruments executed in connection with landed estates.
The Law School library is independent in administration and organization, but its comprehensive resources are supplemented in specialized
15

�areas through inter-library loans and other cooperative arrangements
with the general University library, departmental libraries, and the
major public, educational, and legal collections in the region.
A special feature of the library is its distinguished rare book collection, housed in the handsome Hardy Scholars Treasure Room adjoining
the main reading room. These early volumes, numbering some 2,500,
have been acquired through the years and represent a variety of fields.
Many are first editions of the classics of the law, including a number of
manuscripts and incunabula (books printed before 1500). A number
are either unique or the only copies in the Western Hemisphere. The
value of these books is not primarily antiquarian, however. They have
been gathered and selected because they are indispensable for effective
legal research in areas that may be vital both to scholars and practitioners.
Although the reserve facilities of the library have been constructed
with foresight to accommodate an eventual collection twice the size of
the current holdings, provision has also been made for the use of the
materials of legal research of the future . A section of the library is fully
fitted with the basic equipment for the use of microfilm and microcards,
designed to replace conventional books and to ameliorate their problems
of bulk and deterioration.
As the practitioner of a learned profession, the lawyer is more than
a craftsman. To encourage a wide-ranging interest among the students,
a section of the main reading room has been set aside for casual reading
in fields of current or general significance. Comfortably furnished, the
browsing area offers current periodicals as well as a broad selection of
biographical and miscellaneous works.

OTHER SCHOOL FACILITIES
Although hours in the classroom and the library predominate both
for students and for faculty, there must be provision for the informal
give-and-take discussion in which the student lawyer hones his skill in
analysis and expression-and for moments of relaxation, however brief.
Lowden Hall, named for the first of the School's alumni to serve as governor of Illinois, is the principal School lounge and is rich with reminders of the history of law and the Law School. On the lower level
are lockers, food and beverage dispensers and two rooms equipped with
tables for a coffee break or light luncheon.
A unique feature of the Law School is the study area provided on the
fourth floor of Levy Mayer Hall. Here are eight rooms accommodating
four to ten each, ideally suited to individual study or informal discussion and review sessions.
Separate offices are furnished for the various co-curricular activities
16

�Lowden Hall , the School lounge, is a comfortab le place to relax
and talk or study .

conducted under student auspices and control, including the officers of
the Junior Bar Association and the staff of the Law Review, the Julius
H. Miner Moot Court Competition, and the Student Book Exchange.
Candidates for the S.J.D. degree are also eligible for private offices.
Faculty offices, which open directly onto main corridors for access
without formalities or intermediaries, foster frequent and fruitful informal meeting between student and teacher.

STUDENT RESIDENCE
Living and working together, law students gain advantages that are
significant if not readily apparent. Casual conversation as well as earnest
discussion contributes to the development of the prospective lawyer's
powers and personality. The stimulation and discipline students give
one another have an impact that is directly evident in the classroom.
The ancient ancestors of modern law schools, the English Inns of
Court, depended solely upon the influences of students' living, eating,
and arguing informally together to produce men of professional qualification. For the student who resides in Abbott Hall, the Law School be17

�comes the center of everyday li[e. The library and the classrooms are
accessible, the distractions of commuting are avoided, and the student
naturally and effortlessly concentrates his time and attention on preparing for the practice of law.
For these reasons, all law students except married students and those
whose homes are within easy commuting distance of the School are encouraged to live in Abbott Hall. It is designed to provide convenient
and attractive living quarters and to provide an atmosphere in which
may be developed all those qualities of personality which are so essential
to a lawyer, but which for the most part fall outside the sphere of
formal training.
The building, eighteen stories high, overlooks Lake Michigan on
Lake Shore Drive from Huron to Superior Street. It is constructed of
Indiana limestone and conforms in architectural style to the classroom
buildings on the campus. The first two floors and the basement are

the Law School are furnished medical care and treatment. The facilities
of the several hospitals associated with the University and situ ated on
the ca mpus are available for confinement, and out-patient care and
consultation are provided in the Medical School.
Students are enrolled with the Service at the time of registration,
and at that time complete the necessary forms, appear for a conference,
and receive detailed information about the plan. For a more complete
description, the Studen t H ealth Service Information Bulletin is available upon request.

�"[Here the] teaching will . . . give men
what they want to know when they go out
to fight, but . . . it will send them forth
with a pennon as well as with a sword,
to keep before their eyes in the long
battle the little flutter that means ideals,
honor, yes, even romance, in all the dull
details."

- justice Oliver Wendell Holmes,
at the dedication of the Law School
buildings, October 20, 1902.

THE
COURSE
OF

INSTRUCTION
The purpose of the Law School is to prepare its graduates for effective service in all fields of law-to qualify men and women not only for
the private practice of the profession but for careers in government
service, in the fields of commerce and finance, and in legal education as
well. The curriculum does not concentrate upon imparting knowledge
of the legal rules applicable in any one jurisdiction or region . Rather,
it concentrates upon the development of the fundamental capacities and
skills of the lawyer.
Human activity is infinitely varied and ever changing. Law, bringing
order and direction to the relations of men, involves a continuous process of growth and adjustment. Every legal problem and each case that
comes to the lawyer is, in a sense, unique. Effective professional education must therefore prepare the student to deal with situations never
before encountered, to direct the resources of the law to new fields of
human endeavor, and to handle not the problems of the past but the
cases of the future.
Reflecting this objective, the program of instruction in the Law
School differs markedly from the usual undergraduate instruction. It
requires, of course, diligence and effort for a mastery of the formal materials of the course. Beyond this foundation the instruction demands
thought and initiative of the individual student to extend his learning
21

�beyond the limits of the materials and to stretch his powers of analysis.
As the lawyer must deal with new ~ituations throughout his professional
life, so the student lawyer is taught to transcend rote learning and to
find his way in unfamiliar contexts. The result is an intellectual challenge that is both rewarding and stimulating. The individual student
is ~purred to go as far as his mind and industry will carry him.
The course of study embodied in the new curricular plan approved
b y the Faculty in the spring of 1966 affords significant new opportunities
for developing and testing the capacities of the individual student.
CLASSES

The law student typically attends classes for fifteen or sixteen hours
a week. Class meetings are scheduled throughout the morning and
afternoon Monday through Friday with time for study between classes.
There are occasional special class meetings on Saturday, although generally that cla y is available for uninterrupted individual study and research. Two or three times as many hours are devoted to individual
study as are spent in class. Time spent in co-curricular activities and
independent research must be added to the requirements of course work.
The study of law, therefore, is a full-time occupation.
In a typical Law School term, the student's class attendance is distributed among four or five courses. Some of the subjects represent
ancient categories of the law. Course titles such as Criminal Law, Property, Contracts, and Torts go back, as separate topics, to the clays of Lord
Coke or Blackstone. But life has changed since those early days in the
law, and even these traditional subjects have altered substantially in conten t. Today in Torts the focus is on such disparate objects as the automobile and the atom and upon the legal problem each presents to an
en ergized society. Property law today concerns itself not only with ancient learning but as well with such topics as urban renewal and air
rights. Criminal Law more and more is concerned with psychiatry, with
modern correctional theories, and with protection of the fundamental
rights of the accused. The law of Contracts today finds itself dealing
with a nd adjusting to the subject matter of tomorrow- plastics, missiles,
the building of skyscrapers, and the hiring of research and development
skills.
The changing ch a racter of law is reflected in the content of traditional co urses, altered to keep pace with a changing society. It is reflected,
too, in th e newer courses introduced by the Law School into the law
curriculum to d eal with emerging areas of legal service. The lawyer is a
full-time student for only one period in his professional life. Within the'
limits of the possible, he must be educated in tha t brief span for the re22

sponsibilities of the legal profession, not just for the day, but for the half
century of lawyer's work that lies ahead. So it is that Labor Relations,
Taxation, Administrative Law, Civil Rights, and Trade Relations were
introduced into the basic program of the Law School during the formative years of those subjects, anticipating the current recognition of their
significance. Courses and seminars in International Law, Scientific Evidence, Comparative Law, and International Business Transactions are
typical of other offerings designed to meet the needs of the profession in
the years to come.

FACULTY
The basic instruction in the Law School program is conducted by the
full-time resident faculty, who take teaching as their first responsibility.
Each member is experienced in private practice, in responsible government posts, or both. Many are called upon for consultation and advice
by government agencies and private groups and are active in the organizations and affairs of the legal profession and the community. Their
scholarly activities include the delivery of lectures and addresses before
legal and public bodies as well as the preparation of learned treatises
and articles. Such activities serve to complement and to enrich the instruction. The casebooks and other teaching materials for a majority of
the courses offered in the School were prepared by the faculty members
who teach those courses, and many are widely used, standard works in
their respective fields.
23

�A student makes a point in the Socratic dialogue which characterizes classroom work.

METHODS OF INSTRUCTION
In recognition of the lawyer's function of articulating the conflicting
interests of society, instruction in modern law schools is conducted principally through participation by the class. No longer does the student
lawyer listen passively in a lecture audience. To maximize the opportunity for active participation afforded each student, Northwestern Law
School has adopted a curricular policy emphasizing instruction through
relative! y small classes and seminars. First-year courses enrolling 17 5
students or more have no place in the Law School program. The entering student will find himself attending classes with a group of approximately half that size. Seminars are limited in enrollment and commonly
range in size from ten to twenty students. Advanced individual work
is conducted under the personal supervision of one or more members
of the faculty.
Instruction of this kind requires a low student-faculty ratio. The
program of the School is based upon the conviction that this concentration of educational resources upon the individual student is the most
effective way to develop the skills that distinguish the legal profession.
THE CASE METHOD

The case method of teaching, employed principally in the formal
courses, particularly those offered in the first year, is founded upon the
premise that the first objective of law training is to develop an understanding on the part of the student of how and why the courts decide
cases as they do. The method was adopted at the Law School in the
earliest years of its evolution. The materials of study are the actual de24

�c1s10ns of courts, embodied in written opm10ns rendered in real and
disputed cases, rather than a textbook compendium of legal rules. The
cases themselves are the specimens of legal controversy to be examined
and dissected. The student is brought to the level of a participant in
the proceeding, analyzing each stage in the course of litigation and each
step in the process of decision. Through painstaking scrutiny of a large
number of cases, the student shares vicariously the experience of the
lawyers and judges who conducted them, and thereby gains an understanding of the judicial process based on observation of the law in action
at first hand.
Although the case method varies in its use with the approach of the
professor, the teaching styles grouped under this heading have certain
characteristic elements in common.
Under the case system it is essential that students prepare thoroughly and intensively before class. The course materials for this preparation
consist of a casebook, a collection of actual decisions in related kinds of
controversy. The student at Northwestern will find that the authors of
many of his casebooks are his own professors, authorities in their respective fields. The class session in a case-taught course typically does not
offer a lecture but rather a discussion of several of these cases, conducted
in the manner of a Socratic dialogue between the teacher and students.
Questions are designed to test the student's understanding of the case,
to identify the considerations that controlled the decision, and to probe
its implications for similar situations and its relation to other decisions.
The discussion is conducted in an atmosphere of unrelenting questioning of each idea presented, by both fellow students and instructor.
Through the guidance of provocative questions, the students develop a
healthy skepticism, a capacity for independent critical judgment, and a
tough-minded approach to legal materials.
Although the professor may upon occasion depart from the interrogating role to explain the background of a legal problem or to give
direction to the class discussion, the essence of the case method is the
collective probing and searching, the crucible of give and take in which
the student's own powers of reason and analysis are tempered and developed. The system is in fact designed to cast back to the student, after
he has digested and evaluated the wide range of ideas developed in
group discussion, the task of developing for himself an understanding,
first, of what courts and administrative agencies do and why they do it
and, second, of how to participate effectively in the process. From the
outset of his law school career the student is thus led to do what he has
to do throughout his professional life-think, analyze, and decide on his
own initiative.
·w ith the interplay of ideas and clash of opinion, class sessions are
25

�seldom dull. Since the significant formulation in the progress of the discussion may well come from a fellow student and since any student may
be drawn into the discussion at any time, alertness and concentrated
attention are required of all.
Most college students, accustomed to student-teacher dialogue only
in quite small groups, find it difficult to imagine vigorous discussion in
a class of eighty or ninety students. Although they may not fully understand why such discussion is possible until they themselves become regular participants in the process, they are welcomed and encouraged to
arrange with the Admissions Office to visit one or two classes at the Law
School to see the process in action.
THE PROBLEM METHOD

The problem method, an instructional technique originated at the
Law School and now widely employed throughout legal education, is
used in many second- and third-year courses. Here the emphasis is not
upon the cases or administrative decisions as such. The focus of the
student's work and of the class session is rather a set of facts raising
legal problems for which there may indeed b e no authoritative solution.
The student's task is to take the available materials in the forms of decisions, statutes, and administrative rulings and to construct or create
his own solution to the problem.
Perhaps the problem is set at the stage where the businessman asks
for advice on a proposed transaction. Perhaps the transaction has already
taken place and the problem concerns the consequences to be attached
to the transaction by the federal or state government by way of taxation
or regulation. In short, the problems are much like those which come to
the lawyer in actual practice, a nd in fact the problems are frequently
drawn from life. Consultative practice by some members of the faculty
and the generally close relationship between the School and the practicing profession combine to provide the student in a problem-method
course with an experience that closely approximates the practice of law.
Characteristically in a course taught by this method, the student submits before the class session a short memorandum solution to the problem, based on his analysis of relevant source material. In the class session he or one of his fellow students is invited to explain the legal issues
presented by the problem situation and the views he takes of those issues.
Discussion, often vigorous, follows.
PRACTICE COURSES

Practice courses preserve in the Law School the advantages which
accrued to the aspiring attorney in an earlier clay when there were no
26

�law schools and a man trained himself for the bar by working in the
office of an established lawyer, observing the practice of law, and learning through trial and error the arts and skills of the profession. In the
practice courses, the student actually tries the skills of the practitioner.
Prominent among these is the course known as Legal Clinic. In 1910,
Northwestern introduced to legal education the idea of giving law students actual experience in practice by providing legal services for the
poor. Under this program law students during the last half of their
training serve in the clinic under the supervision of a faculty member.
The clinic handles all kinds of civil cases, and the student may consult
with clients, interview witnesses, prepare pleadings and other instruments, appear in court, and assist in the conduct of trials. The training
fills a function similar in many respects to that of the internship in
medical education.
A voluntary program, instituted in cooperation with the United
States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, affords an opportunity for interested students to assist assigned practitioners in representing indigent defendants in criminal cases before the federal courts.
During his first year the student is instructed in the techniques of
oral and written argument in the course in Moot Court. Practicing the
lawyer's skills, he is required to prepare a written brief in compliance
with prevailing professional standards and to argue his case, opposed by
a fellow student under courtroom conditions before an appellate court
composed of prominent alumni and faculty members. This instruction
is continued on a voluntary basis in the second year in the .Julius H.
Miner Moot Court Competition.
In the third year the student is offered a choice of practice courses in
the trial of a lawsuit from its beginning to encl. The instruction provides the student with actual experience in examining witnesses, presenting evidence, arguing to a jury, and the like. The student thus learns by
doing, not merely by precept, what the trial lawyer must be able to do.
Most of the lawyer's practice is carried on in his office, not in the
courtroom. To prepare its graduates for the work of counseling, advising, and planning, the Law School offers a number of courses in which
the student is called upon to draw the legal instruments and documents
which the practicing attorney must be able to prepare.
SEMINARS

Seminars are offered in the second and third years in a variety of
fields. Here the student is free to select subjects of special interest to
him and to explore new areas of the law. In a group commonly numbering from ten to twenty, with the guidance of a senior faculty member,
27

�the student engages in intensive individual work on some aspect of the
general subject embraced by the seminar. Many seminars cut across traditional disciplinary boundaries and include materials and participants
from such fields as economics, sociology, psychiatry, and political science.
Often the seminar student writes a major paper and presents this
product of his own research for the critical consideration of the seminar
group. With the stimulus of special interest in the subject matter and
the spur of criticism from interested fellow students in prospect, significant legal research is done in the seminars. Some of the papers are
printed in the professional journals published by the Law School, and
research done in the seminar program has on occasion been favorably
noticed in the opinions of some of the nation's highest courts.
SENJOR RESEARCH PROGRAM

The Senior Research Program in the third year is an innovation in
legal education introduced for the first time in 1966-67. Under this Program a student with faculty approval may elect to devote a significant
proportion of his third year (from 4 to 8 credit hours) to advanced research under the personal supervision of one or more members of the
faculty. A student interested in this Program may propose during his
second year a project for faculty approval and arrange his schedule to
include the Law School courses and seminars which provide the necessary
background for the proposed work. In the third year the student meets
at least weekly with his faculty supervisor to discuss the progress of the
research. The final paper or report must be approved by a faculty committee.
The aim is not to make a "specialist" of the student, but rather to
afford him the intellectual experience of plumbing a subject to its depths;
of sharpening his power of analysis, observation and communication; and
of making a genuine contribution to research. Depending upon the
nature of the subject, projects may require research in the law library,
and may also draw upon other resources: other libraries in the University
and the community; other departments of the University, where course or
seminar offerings related to the field of inquiry may be taken; or the community itself, where field research may be undertaken. The Program is
flexible enough to permit, with careful advanced planning and approval,
even work in other parts of the nation or the world.
The faculty participants in the Program carry a classroom teaching
load which is lighter than normal in order that they may devote more
time to parallel research and to the joint discussion and critique necessary to take the inquiry beyond the bounds of traditional seminar work or
individual study projects. Indeed in many cases, work in the Program is
expected to grow into a joint, cooperative student-teacher research under28

�taking, more significant not only in substance but also in working relationship than anything heretofore possible in a law school setting.
The challenges and rewards promised by the Senior Research Program
are many. As a supplement to the longer established group learning techniques, the individual learning and teaching offered by the Program
promise significant further enrichment for students willing and able to
meet its demands for initiative, self-discipline, and hard work. The Program is expected to serve, too, the School's established goal of making
regular contributions on the frontiers of the law.
Most significant of all, perhaps, are the opportunities for student and
teacher to work together in concrete ways toward the common encl of
advancing the highest traditions of the law as a learned profession and
as a servant of society.

THE THREE-YEAR CURRICULUM
In the last century Northwestern, setting the norm in legal education, was among the first of the nation's law schools to require three
years of study for a degree in law. Beginning students enter the Law
School in September and attend the two semesters of the regular academic year for three years. By attending optional summer sessions, however, students may earn their degrees in twenty-eight months.
The most recent revision of the School's curriculum, comprising the
elective second year and the Senior Research Program, was approved by
the Faculty in the spring of 1966, to become effective in 1966-67. During
his first year of law study the student follows a prescribed course designed
to provide an understanding of basic legal principles and concepts and
to give a solid grounding in the fundamentals indispensable for all
branches of the profession. Here the student encounters the grand
divisions of private law-Property, Tort, and Contract- as well as Constitutional Law and Criminal Law. The course in Legal Writing and
Research and the Laboratory Seminar in Procedure meet typically in
small groups (ten to fifteen students) in which the lawyer's basic tools
and the first year student's individual problems in dealing with them are
brought under careful scrutiny.
Each entering student is assigned a senior faculty member as adviser.
This advisory relationship is available in the first year to ease the adjustment to the demands of law study. Thereafter the adviser becomes
guide and mentor as the student plans the work of his last two years.
The wide range of electives offered by the Law School in the second
and third years permits a modest degree of concentration but, more significantly, allows the student to follow the bent of his personal interests
and to sample a variety of problems in the law.
29

�REQUIRED COURSES
In order to be recommended for the degree of Juris Doctor, a student
must complete successfully 90 semester-hours of work including the following:
All courses in the first year curriculum
Two hours of seminar work requiring substantial individual research
and writing (4 hours for classes graduating in 1968 a nd thereafter) or participation in the Senior Research Program.
The courses in
Legal Profession
Legal Clinic (not required of members of the Law R eview)
International Law
Although the Faculty may change the requirements for graduation
at a ny time, this responsibility is not exercised so as to place an undue
burden upon an enrolled student who has planned his program on the
basis of previously announced requirements.
In addition to these course requirements, instructors may establish
one or more prerequisites for enrollment in particular courses and seminars in the second and third years.

COURSE LOAD
Courses totaling 16 credit-hours in any term, in the opinion of the
Faculty, represent the maximum amount of work which a good student
ca n do effectively under favorable conditions. On the other hand, each
student is expected to register for not less than 14 credit-hours of work
each term.

LIMITED ENROLLMENT
The seminars and the courses 111 Trial Technique, Trial Practice,
and Introduction to Litiga tion are limited in enrollment. The School
cannot assure that all students wishing to enroll in a particular seminar,
Trial Technique, Trial Practice, or Introduction to Litigation can be
accommodated.

�ACADEMIC REGULATIONS
Programs for the second and third year must have the written approval of the student's assigned faculty adviser. In their second year students may register for no more than one seminar in any semester. Third
year students may register in any semester for no more than two seminars
requiring the writing of substantial papers.
Since the Trial Practice and Introduction to Litigation courses are
substantially similar, no student may take more than one such offering.
Regular a ttendance is required in all courses. No student should
enroll in any course without the intention and capability of satisfying
this requirement. Failure to attend regularly may cause reduction in
grades, loss of credit for courses, additional remedial work, denial of
residence credit, or other appropriate sanctions in the discretion of the
instru ctor or the Dean.

EXAMINATIONS AND GRADES
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. In accordance
with the prevailing practice in legal education, a single final examination is usually given, without periodic or mid-term tests, to permit comprehensive treatment of the subject matter and to measure the student's
capacity to work with and master a substantial body of material. A lthough examinations provide the most important source for determining
the student's relative achievement, consideration may also be given to
the written work done in connection with a course and to the preparation of assignments for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion. In
seminar courses, no examinations are ordinarily given. Grades are based
upon the products of individual research and participation in the seminar discussions.
Students who are eligible but who for good reason are unable to
take an examination may, with the permission of the Dean, take the
next regularly scheduled examination in the course, take the examination late, or in unusual cases be given a special examination.
The grading system is numerical. A grade of 85 or above represents
work of the highest distinction. Grades of 68 and above indicate various
degrees of satisfactory work. Credit is given for courses in which the
student receives a grade from 60 through 67, but such grades indicate
unsatisfactory work. No credit is given for a course in which a grade of
less than 60 is received.
A student who, at the encl of any term after his first term in School,
has failed to maintain an average of 68 to that elate is ineligible for
further registration in the School. A student who fails to attain an
average grade of 68 over his entire course is in eligible for a degree.
45

�Grades received at other schools are not considered in determining the
average grade.
At the option of the instructor, grades in courses and seminars m
which no examination is given may be recorded simply as P (pass) or
F (failure).
HONORS AND PRIZES

In 1907 the Order of the Coif was founded at Northwestern, and it

has since become the recognized national honor society in legal education with chapters, numbering more than forty-five, established in most
of the leading law schools. The tradition of recognizing scholarly excellence thus begun in the School is reflected today in the long list of
awards and prizes given in recognition of superior accomplishment.
THE ORDER OF THE COIF, NORTHWESTERN CHAPTER
The Northwestern chapter of the Order of the Coif annually elects from
the senior class a number of persons, not exceeding 10 percent of the
class, who on the basis of scholarship and character are deemed worthy
of the honor. The work of the Law Review is so integrated with the
instruction program of the School that satisfactory participation in that
work is normally a requisite for election to the Order of the Coif.
THE NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW
Selection
of the student members of the Board of Editors of the Northwestern
University Law Review is based upon scholastic standing and competitive writing. Membership on the board is one of the highest honors a
student can attain in the School of Law.
WIGMORE KEY
Established in 1949-1950, t~1e award is made by
the Junior Bar Association to the member of the senior class who has
clone most for the School toward preserving its traditions. Selection is
made by the graduating class, Board of Governors of the Junior Bar Association, Editorial Board of the Law R eview, and the Faculty.
THE LOWDEN-WIGMORE PRIZES
The income from a fund
established by the late Frank 0. Lowden, Class of 1887, is used annually
to provide prizes totaling approximately $400. In accordance with the
wishes of the donor, the prizes are awarded on the basis of competitions
designed to test the ability to marshal authorities, to present arguments
effectively in written form, and to speak lucidly and convincingly in
public.
BARNET AND SCOTT HODES PRIZE
The income from a fund
established in 1962 by Barnet Hodes, Class of 1921 , is used annually to
46

�provide a prize of approximately $400, a certificate, and a key for the
student preparing the best paper dealing with some aspect of the law
of local government.
THE HYDE PRIZE
The income from a fund of $1,800, the gift of
Professor Charles Cheney Hyde, is awarded not more often than once in
two years, under such conditions as the Faculty may impose, for the best
paper written by a student in the School of Law on some subject relating to international law.
HOMER F. CAREY AWARD
Booth Inn of Phi Delta Phi in 1952
made provision for an award in memory of the late Homer F. Carey,

DEGREES
Degrees are conferred by the Trustees of the Universi ty upon students
who are recommended by the Faculty of the School of Law. Before a
student is recommended for a degree, he must have satisfied the faculty
as to his character, and he must have complied with the requirements
for the degree for which he is a candidate.
The first degree in law awarded by the University is the Juris Doctor (.J.D.). It is conferred upon students who have satisfactorily completed courses carrying 90 semester-hours of credit in the School of
Law, including the required courses described on page 30. The work
must be pursued during a residence period of three academic years or
the equivalent. The last year must be in residence at Northwestern
University School of Law, and in the case of students transferring from
another law school, a minimum of 30 semester-hours of credit must be
earned in this School.
When the Faculty believes that the candidate's record of scholarship
merits special recognition, the degree may be awarded cum laude, magna
cwn laude, or sumrna cum laude.

THE LINTHICUM FOUNDATION PROGRAM
The Charles Clarence Linthicum Foundation was established m 1926 in
memory of Professor Linthicum, an alumnus of the class of 1882, a member
of the Law School Faculty from 1902 to 1915, and one of the most eminent
patent lawyers of his day. The income of the fund is devoted to the support
of research, study, and development of the law of trade, industry, and commerce. From time to time prizes have been awarded from these funcls for
meritorious books and essays in these fields to distinguished American and
Europea n authors. In recent years, the Foundation has sponsored a number
of significant conferences.
In 1948, a round table was held under the Linthicum Foundation on the

�CORPORATE COUNSEL INSTITUTE
The Law School cooperated in 1962 with several bar associations in inaugurating an annual Corporate Counsel Institute to be held at Northwestern for
the purpose of reviewing problems of special interest to corporate counsel,
considering topics of current importance in the corporate field, and providing
an opportunity for discussion of problems among corporate counsel.

THE CRIMINAL LAW PROGRAM
Each summer the Law School offers a five-day Short Course for Prosecuting
Attorneys and a five-day Short Course for Defense Lawyers in Criminal Cases.
Also, at various times throughout the year the School conducts conferences or
seminars for criminal law practitioners, police legal advisers, and other groups
with a special interest in criminal law administration.
The Police Legal Advisor Graduate Student project described elsewhere in
this bulletin under Graduate Fellowships is an integral part of the general
criminal law program.
In 1966 a conference on "The Supreme Court and the Police" was held at
the School under the auspices of the Ford Foundation.

THE PROGRAM OF INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES
In 1957 the Ford Foundation awarded $200,000 to the Law School for the
expansion of its program in International Legal Studies. The School's early
interest in the field is manifested by its substantial and seasoned library collections in foreign and international law and by its long-standing requirement
that each student pursue some international studies. In furtherance of its program the School has offered seminars in International Business Transactions,
International Organization, Comparative Law, Admiralty, and Civil Liberties
on a comparative basis and a course in Fam ily Law with emphasis on comparative materials.
The funds of the grant are used for additional facu lty and for visiting
foreign professors, and they support graduate fellowships for foreign lawyers
and students. Other portions of the funds are devoted to work-seminars and
conferences in the field of international law.

THE PROGRAM IN LAW AND THE SOCIAL SCIENCES
In 1963 the Russell Sage Foundation awarded approximately $2 10,000 to
the Law School and the Graduate School of the University for a three-year
program of interdisciplinary study and research in law and the social sciences.
One purpose of the grant is to stimulate awareness of lawyers and law students
of the contribution of the behaviorial sciences to the understanding and improvement of the legal order. The other principal goal of the program is to
foster among social scientists an understanding of the nature and implications
of the legal order for their own disciplines. To achieve these ends, scholarships
are awarded in both the Graduate School of the University and in the School

54

�of Law (see page 76) . The Sage Scholars in the Law School ordinarily are
expected to take for credit a group of seminars cutting across a number of
disciplines. They may also expect to be involved in special research activity.

"PHILOSOPHY FROM
LAW" CONFERENCES
_,,
In accordance with the terms of a grant of $10,000 from Mr. Oscar van Leer,
an alumnus of the Law School, a series of conferences under the general title
of "Philosophy from Law" was inaugurated in September 1963.
The objective of the grant was to bring together scholars of various disciplines, lawyers, and judges for the purposes of attempting to distill from the
d iscipline of the law some insights beyond the usual professional skills which
may contribute to man's understanding of himself and his society.
In accordance with this general objective the particular subject of the first
conference was "Compromise and Decision-Making in the Resolution of Controversies."
The second conference in the series was held in September 1965 on the
subject "Equal Justice in an Unequal World."

GRADUATE STUDY IN LAW
The graduate program of the Law School has several objectives. One
purpose is to offer to recent law graduates who have demonstrated
superior proficiency in the study of law, as well as to active practitioners,
an opportunity not only to broaden their legal knowledge but also to
study and engage in research in particular fields of interest. The School
also desires to make its facilities available to law teachers and prospective law teachers interested in advanced study and original research and
writing under faculty guidance. In addition, the program is intended to
provide outstanding graduates of foreign law schools with an opportunity to expand their knowledge of American legal processes and to
engage in comparative legal research.

DEGREES
Two graduate degrees are granted: the degree of Master of Laws
(LL.M.) and the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science (S.J.D .).
Master of Laws (LL.M.). The degree of Master of Laws is conferred
upon students who have obtained a first degree in law from this University or another having equivalent requirements; in unusual cases, this
requirement may be waived by a vote of the Faculty. Also such students
must fulfill the following requirements:
I. The completion of one academic year of residence in this School,
during which time credit must be obtained for not less than IO semesterhours in courses or seminars not previously counted toward the first
55

�degree in law. During their year of residence, graduate students are required to maintain a superior scholarship record. Each graduate student's course program is individually planned in light of the student's
choice of a thesis topic. Also, students who have not previously taken
Jurisprudence and Comparative Law are required to enroll in these
seminars. To the extent necessary to establish a background for his
research, the Graduate Committee may in its discretion require a graduate student to take course and seminar work in addition to the minimum prescribed above.
2. The completion of a thorough study of some approved legal topic
and the presentation of a paper embodying its results. The candidate's
thesis must be of such character as to be suitable for publication in the
Northwestern University Law R eview or the Journal of Criminal Law,
Criminology and Police Science.
3. The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the Faculty.
Doctor of Juridical Science (S.J.D.). The degree of Doctor of Juridical Science is conferred upon students who have obtained the degree
of Juris Doctor from this or some other university or college h aving
equivalent requirements for that degree or who have obtained the degree
of Bachelor of Laws from another university or college whose requirements for that degree are equivalent to those prescribed by this School
for the degree of Juris Doctor and who have fulfilled the following
requirements:
1. The completion of one academic year of residence in this School.

Informa l coffee hou rs offer students opportunit ies for social
visits wi t h members of the Faculty and prominent guests .

.56

�The time required for the completion of a candidate's work, however,
normally runs far beyond the period of residence required.
2. The completion of a study to be approved by the Faculty or its
designated committee. This study shall be one involving original research
and must be completed in such manner, both as to subject matter and
literary form, as to be, irt the opinion of the Faculty, a significant and
scholarly contribution to legal science.
3. The completion of such other work, if any, as may be directed by
the Dean in the particular case.
4. The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the Faculty.
It is the policy of the Faculty to restrict this degree to candidates who
have had substantial experience either in practicing or teaching law and
who, through their published writings, have evidenced their capacity for
advanced graduate work.
Candidates for this degree are afforded every facility for botb,,~library
and field research, and at some time during their residence they are given
the opportunity to instruct students along the line of their research. They
are given the rank of graduate fellow and are accorded many of the
privileges of members of the faculty.

THE
LIFE OF
THE
SCHOOL
A well-seasoned aphorism, familiar to law students everywhere, says
that a law student receives his education from his classmates. Like many
an old saw, the observation contains within its exaggeration a kernel of
truth. Law school instruction is built upon student participation. Beyond the classroom the student continues his professional preparation in
give-and-take discussion, corridor debate, and friendly argument with
his fellows. The vi tality of the Law School is measured by the quality
and vigor of its student body.
At Northwestern the entering student finds himself a member of a
closely-knit community of men and women, bound together by a common
pursuit and by the rich traditions of the Law School's history. The student body is comparatively small, averaging approximately 475 students.
The modest size of the School and its instructional policies-division of
most courses into two or more sections and the wide range of electives
offered after the first year-promote wide acquaintance among studen ts.
The beginner himself is carefully chosen through a policy of selective
admission designed to assure that every member of the class is capable
of legal study at the highest and most challenging level. His classmates
are high-ranking graduates of the leading colleges and universities in the
United States and abroad.
59

�The library, where student meets lawbook and the training
of a lawyer begins.

Students benefit from friendly relationships with fellow students coming from a wide variety of backgrounds. The typical student body consists of men and women from thirty-five states and eight or ten foreign
countries. Approximately 125 colleges and universities are represented
by graduates enrolled in the Law School (see pp. 90-91). A variety of
undergraduate majors are included, and many students have earned
graduate degrees in other fields before entering the Law School.
Law students as a whole tend to be individualistic and venturesome,
and a broad range of opinion and experience is encompassed in the
student body. The stimulating contacts of student life at the Law School
combine to develop a mature, tolerant, and broadened outlook in the
individual student. It is a happy tradition of the School that a healthy
spirit of competition, so helpful in encouraging each student to his best
effort, exists concurrent with the kind of comradeship and mutual respect so characteristic of the legal profession generally.

�LEGAL PUBLICATIONS
THE NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW
Foremost among the Law School's student activities is the publication
of the Northwestern University Law Review, one of the nation's leading
professional journals. The Review is circulated widely among lawyers
and judges and is often cited in briefs and judicial opinions. The tradition in the legal world of professional journals being accepted as authoritative within the profession, although written, edited, and published by
men who have not yet achieved professional status, is unique among
the professions. Work on the Law Review is at once the most demanding
and rewarding experience available to the law student.
A law journal entitled the Northwestern Law Review was first established by students of the School during the academic year 1892-93, within
five years of the appearance of the first student journal in the nation.
Publication was continued in 1906, after a ten-year suspension, under the
title Illinois Law Review.
For a period beginning in 1924 editorship was shared with the law
schools of the University of Chicago and the University of Illinois. In
1932 Northwestern students resumed full control, and in 1952 the name
was changed to Northwestern University Law Review.
At the end of the first year, students of highest scholastic standing
are chosen to write commentary on legal problems for publication and
to carry on the research, editing, and related work of the Review. Selection is one of the highest honors and greatest responsibilities the Law
School can bestow. The work of the Law Review is so integrated with
the instructional program of the School that participation is normally a
requisite for election to the Order of the Coif. Because of their rich
educational experience and resulting excellent qualification for any field
of the profession, Law R eview editors are sought and preferred after
graduation by leading law firms, government, and private business. The
fact that the student body is not large means that at Northwestern the
opportunities for Law R eview participation are somewhat broader than
in many other schools.
Although Law R eview students work hard, they take one day off each
spring to play a softball game with the faculty and to hold a dinner
where the principal sport is caricaturing the foibles of their professors.
THE JOURNAL OF CRIMINAL LAW,
CRIMINOLOGY AND POLICE SCIENCE
Another Law School publication that is available for the publishable
products of student scholarship is the Journal of Criminal Law, Criminology and Pol£ce Science. This Journal with a world-wide circulation
is the foremost publication of its kind. It has been in continuous pub61

managing director. The assistant editor is James R. Thompson, Assistant Director of the Law School's Criminal Law Program. They are
assisted by a Board of Consulting Editors composed of some of the
country's outstanding legal scholars and criminologists.
The section of the Journal devoted to Police Science is under the
editorship of Ordway Hilton, Examiner of Questioned Documents, New
York City. He is assisted by a Board of Consulting Editors in the fields
of police administration, criminalistics, and forensic sciences generally.
The student board of the Journal, like the editorial board of the
Law R eview, is chosen from among the highest ranking students at the
end of the first year of Law School work and bears responsibility for
preparing and editing the case abstracts, notes, and comments appearing in the student section of the Journal. Although several law schools
have so-called "intramural" law reviews in addition to regular published
journals to broaden opportunities for student participation in work of
this kind, the availability of a second published periodical for student
work is rare, if not unique, especially in a moderate-size school.

JULIUS H. MINER MOOT COURT COMPETITION
To provide continuing practice and instruction in the arts of appellate advocacy, the first-year course in Moot Court is supplemented by the
Julius H. Miner Moot Court Competition for advanced students in the
School. Made possible by an endowment memorializing Judge Julius H.
Miner, the program is conducted, under faculty supervision, by thirdyear students comprising the Moot Court Board and involves the prnparation of appellate court briefs and the presentation of oral arguments
before panels of judges, practicing attorneys, and faculty members. The
cases typically raise issues of current legal importance, more complex and
challenging than those assigned in the regular first-year course. The final
argument is conducted before the entire student body, customarily with
distinguished judges from the federal bench. Those who have served
as presiding judges for final arguments include Associate Justices Arthur
.J. Goldberg (an alumnus of the Law School), Byron R. White, Torn
C. Clark, and Potter Stewart of the Supreme Court of the United States.
The School team in the National Moot Court Competition is chosen
from among the Miner Competition finalists.

Law students are only a few short steps removed from the practice of
law. The qualities of personal integrity and responsibility essential in
the profession are best fostered not by exhortation but by actual exercise
64

�and experience. In the belief that the most effective way to develop
maturity and responsibility among the students is to vest responsibility
in the students themselves, the Law School has conferred a large measure
of authority upon the students' professional organization, the Junior
Bar Association.
All students are members of the Association and through it work out
the problems of student government and School activities. Its declared
objects are to encourage and promote the highest standards of integrity
and industry to the end that its members may be properly equipped to
enter the profession of the law. The officers and Board of Governors of
the Association are elected by the students.

HONOR CODE
An important product of the Law School's philosophy of student
responsibility is the honor code and the broad authority granted to the
students, through the Junior Bar Association, with respect to its enforcement and implementation. The basic tenet of the Honor Code is that
the law student, like the lawyer, should be subject to unyielding standards
of honorable conduct. In reliance upon the students' collective sense of
responsibility, Law School examinations are unmonitored and unsupervised by faculty, staff, or proctors. The honor code imposes a strict obligation upon each student to report any apparent infractions to the students constituting the Board of Governors of the Association. After a full
hearing the Board has the duty to make findings and to recommend
appropriate disciplinary action to the Faculty.
The code covers not only the administration of examinations, but
also the submission of written papers and the conduct of a student generally in his law study and relations with the School. The student body
through its elected representatives in the Junior Bar Association further
has the authority to prescribe and enforce rules of conduct in and about
the Law School and to enforce the regulations governing the use of the
library. The intent is that habits of professional self-discipline should
be developed in the student, rather than imposed upon him by outward
authority.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES
The student body bears important responsibilities as well in the supplemental educational programs of the School. The Junior Bar Association traditionally sponsors a series of frequent lectures, bringing outstanding lawyers, judges, and political figures to the Law School to address
the students on subjects of general interest. Informal receptions are held
frequently in Lowden Hall to afford the student opportunities for social
65

�contact and casual conversation with members of the faculty and distinguished visitors to the School.
A wide variety of activities is carried on under student leadership
through the Junior Bar Association to serve the needs and interests of
fellow students. The Association takes a leading role in planning and
conducting the annual orientation program for new students, assists them
with registration, and arranges for a reception and small advisory meetings, all designed to welcome the beginner and to ease the educational
transition.
The Association operates an exchange for the purchase and sale of
used casebooks and course materials, supplementing the facilities of the
University Bookstore in Abbot Hall and helping students who must
economize.
In recognition of the Law School's place in the legal profession at
large, the Northwestern Junior Bar Association is affiliated with the
American Law Student Association, the national organization of students
in training for the law, sponsored by the American Bar Association.
In sum, the varied range of opportunities afforded to Law School
students for service to their fellows, to the School, and to the profession
provides valuable training in the exercise of those responsibilities that
distinguish the lawyer's calling as a profession.

RECREATION AND SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
The law student soon learns the truth of the old saying that "the law
is a jealous mistress." He will not be able to indulge extensively in
amusements or spend much time in social events. Nevertheless, no man
or woman can accomplish a maximum of work without a reasonable
amount of recreation.
Organized social activities at the Law School are sponsored by the
Junior Bar Association and by the several legal fraternities. In addition
to the coffee hours, the Association holds a dance for all students once
each semester.
Chapters of three national legal fraternities- Phi Alpha Delta, Phi
Delta Phi, and Tau Epsilon Rho-and one legal sorority-Kappa Beta Pi
-have been established at the Law School. Members do not live or eat
together, and lines are not sharply drawn. The fraternities do, however,
arrange for a number of occasions which have professional as well as
recreational value. They hold luncheons during the course of the year
with addresses by nationally and locally prominent lawyers, judges, and
public officials. And they sponsor dances and informal parties. None of
these groups follows any discriminatory membership policy.
A program of intramural athletics involving the legal fraternities and
other groups on the campus offers participation in organized sports, and
66

�nearby beaches, golf courses, and other facilities are available for individual recreation. Tickets are offered at reduced rates for the University's intercollegiate athletic programs on the undergraduate campus in
Evanston.
Many opportunities for entertainment and cultural pursuits afforded
in a city such as Chicago are close at hand.
STUDENT WIVES
A useful auxiliary of the Junior Bar Association is the organization
of the wives of Law School students. A substantial number of the student body are married.
At the social gatherings of the Law Wives, the student's wife can visit
with faculty wives, discuss matters of common interest, and spend a
pleasant evening during her husband's long hours in the library. To help
her to understand the work that demands so much of her husband's time
and attention, the law wife may enjoy an informal talk by one of the
faculty members on the vicissitudes of law study or a legal problem of
general interest. Occasionally professors have conducted abbreviated
versions of their Law School courses for the student wives to give them
a first-hand view of the educational process in which their husbands are
so deeply involved.

that the School will commence with 50
students. The tuition fees are to be $100
per year."

ADMISSION,
TUITION,
FEES, AND
FINANCIAL AID
Every year the Law School draws many hundreds of applications
for admission from every state in the Union and from abroad. In recent
years there have been five or more applicants for each place in the entering class.
As a private institution Northwestern must rely principally upon
tuition income and gifts from alumni and others to meet the not inconsiderable expenses of maintaining the faculty, library, and other
facilities of a law school of the first rank. Fortunately, a substantial
portion of the gifts made to the University and the Law School is available to provide financial assistance to students in need of it.

ADMISSION
Since its early years the Law School has followed a policy of selective
admission to preserve its character as a cohesive academic community of
modest size and to assure continued educational standards of the highest
order. In consequence, the School is unable to accept many applicants
who are capable of successfully completing legal studies and qualifying
for the practice of law.
Applicants are selected for admission upon the basis of demonstrated
scholarship, intellectu·al capacity, and qualities of character requisite to
68

�the profession. The School endeavors to admit only those applicants
whose records indicate that they will successfully complete the course of
study.
MAKING APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION
Application forms and inf orrnation concerning admission requirements may be obtained by writing to the Office of Admissions, Northwestern University School of Law, 357 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago,
lllinois 60611.
Students beginning the study of law enter the School at the opening of
the first semester in September.
Before enrollment the student must have obtained a Bachelor's degree
from an approved college or university.
The application form must be supplemented by a transcript from
each college or university attended. Except in unusual cases transcripts
should not be supplied until they include a record of three full academic
years. If the application is approved, the applicant is asked to supply
a final transcript certifying the award of a Bachelor's degree unless the
transcripts originally submitted contain that certification.
The application must also be supported by a report of the applicant's
score on the Law School Admission Test. This Law School joined with
several other schools is sponsoring the development of this test, which
is designed to measure the student's general aptitude for the study
of law. Information on how to arrange to take the test, administered
by the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey, is supplied
with the admission forms. The test m ay be taken either before or after
the forms are filed, although an applicant for admission in September
should ordinarily plan to register for either the test given in the fall or
the test given in the winter of the preceding academic year. The Educational Testing Service should be requested to report the applicant's score
directly to the School of Law.
An applicant is also asked to submit recommendations on forms furnished by the School from two college or university instructors. The
application fee is $15.00.
VISITS TO THE SCHOOL
An applicant need not appear for a personal interview unless requested by the Committee on Admissions. Prospective students are invited and encouraged, however, to visit the School. Ordinarily if the
School is in session, arrangements can be made for the visitor to attend
a regular class session. It is helpful, though not essential, for the visitor
to telephone or write in advance to the Secretary of Admissions for an
appointment.
69

�During the normal college vacation periods, the number of prospective students wishing to visit the School is large. This fact and the
large volume of admissions mail and other business in these periods
make it almost impossible to give extended personal attention to visitors
at these times. The School holds an open house during the Christmas
holiday and all applicants are urged to visit the School on that occasion.
Each year a number of applicants seek personal interviews with the
aim of thus enhancing their chances of gaining admission. Although
the Admissions staff is always happy to answer questions to the best of
its ability, applicants should be aware that decisions are made by the
Committee on Admissions and that the only effective way to ensure full
Committee consideration of special circumstances is to append a written
statement of them to the application form.
The Secretary of Admissions is ordinarily available to speak with
visitors and can answer authoritatively or secure answers to questions
not answered by this bulletin or other printed material.

WHEN TO APPLY
The completed application form may be submitted at any time during
the twelve months preceding the expected date of entrance. Early applications is advisable. It is not necessary to wait until the transcripts, test
score, and recommendations can be supplied before filing the application.
Applications are considered and acted upon as soon as the supporting
information has been received. Determinations are made upon a balanced evaluation of the applicant's college record and the Law School
Admission Test score, supplemented by the required recommendations
and other information bearing on his capacity and qualification for law
study. Each applicant is considered carefully and individually. The trend
of undergraduate achievement, performance in particular fields and
courses, and the demands and influence of other activities and personal
circumstances are weighed and taken into account. Every doubtful application is thoroughly discussed and examined by a committee of faculty
members, which may seek further information from the applicant, his
college, or his professors.
Each applicant who is accepted for admission, whether or not he has
been awarded financial assistance, is required to make a deposit of $50.00
by April 1 of the year of entrance or within thirty days after notice of
acceptance, whichever is later. Upon registration the deposit is applied
toward the payment of tuition or fees .
No applicant previously enrolled in another law school is admitted
either as a beginning student or as a transfer student if he is ineligible
to continue study at that school.
70

�TRANSFER
The admission of students previously enrolled in other law schools
who wish to become candidates for the degree of Juris Doctor depends
upon the applicant's achievements in law study as well as upon the factors
which control the admission of beginning students. Generally stated, the
standard requires a highly creditable law school record.
Transfer applicants should submit the application form with the
$15.00 application fee, transcripts from each college and university
attended, including the law school from which transfer is contemplated,
and two recommendations from former instructors, at least one a law
school instructor. A statement of law school class standing also should be
submitted, and the Law School Admission Test score report must be
furnished.
The granting of credit for courses completed in other schools and the
allowance of advanced standing rest within the discretion of the Dean of
the School. In no event is transfer credit given for law school work in
schools which are not members of the Association of American Law
Schools or for courses in which the student received a grade below C or
its equivalent.
SUMMER SESSION
A student enrolled in another law school may be admitted for the
Summer Session upon a certificate of good standing from the school in
which he is perm anently enrolled. Information concerning the Summer
Session may be obtained by writing to the Registrar of the School after
January I of the year in question.
PRE-LEGAL STUDY
A Bachelor's degree in arts or science is required for admission to the
Law School, but no specific fields of major study or particular courses are
prescribed. The purpose of the requirement is to provide the prospective
lawyer with a sound liberal education for the discharge of his broader
professional responsibilities as well as to provide a foundation for law
school training. Since the reach of the law's concerns may be as wide as
the range of human behavior, no particular course of undergraduate
study confers a special advantage in the law.
College curricula vary, the content of courses bearing the same title
ma y be dissimilar, and teaching attitudes and emphases differ. Accordingly suggestions must be general. Courses in such fields as history, economics, anthropology, sociology, government, and political science may
help the student to understand the structure of society and the problems
of social ordering with which the law is concerned. Studies in philosophy
and literature may impart a familiarity with the traditions of thought
71

�that have influenced legal developments. The examination of human
behavior in courses in psychology and its analysis through statistical
method may also prove worthwhile.
In developing the capacities and skills of the lawyer, the college student should pursue studies that enhance his power to express himself with clarity and force. English, foreign language courses, and public
speaking can be recommended, but the capacities may be developed as
well in other courses in which written work of high quality is demanded.
For the systematic ordering of abstractions and ideas, the physical, natural, and mathematical sciences, in addition to logic, are suggested.
Apart from subject matter the student preparing for the study of law
should take courses of sufficient difficulty to try his capacities to the
utmost to assist in the development of the rigorous intellectual discipline
essential to success in law school. He would be well advised, in addition,
to pursue his studies far enough in some definite field to attain a mastery
of the subject. The typical student is more likely to extend himself
and thereby to increase his capacities for law study if he follows the
bent of his own interests and tastes.
It is perhaps advisable, however, for the prospective law student to
avoid undergraduate courses in law designed for men preparing for other
callings and duplicating law school work. Ordinarily the time and effort
are better spent in studies in other fields.
In general, the undergraduate college student is best advised not to try
to prepare particularly and narrowly for his law school studies, but to
prepare for his life as a lawyer by obtaining the best available general
·education. He will find that what is best for law school is also the best
in liberal education-a course of study that develops in the student the
capacity to understand, to think for himself, and to express himself
effectively.

TUITION, FEES, AND EXPENSES
The cost of a year of law study varies with the needs, habits, and circumstances of the student. As a base from which individual estimates may be
drawn, the sum of $2900 approximates the total expense for the academic year
of the average unmarried student residing in Abbott Hall, the Law School
dormitory. Of this total slightly more than $ 1600 is required for tuition, fees ,
books, and supplies. The remainder represents the typical expenditure for
room, board, and personal needs.

TUITION
The student's total investment in his legal education, although large in absolute terms, is insubstantial in comparison with its total returns in the decades
72

�of h is profess ional life. Short-term economies often prove wasteful in th e long
run . In the interests of its students the Law School has made every effort to
hold down the costs, but in the same interests it h as refused to sacrifice any
of the elements of a legal edu cation of the highest quality. T h e cost of each
student's educati on is on ly p artly cover ed by his tuit ion payments. A substantial portion is p aid from income from endowments and from annual gifts of
alumni and fr iends of Northwestern.
Tuition for the academic year 1966-67 is as follows:

PAYMENT OF TUITION AND FEES
T uition and fees are paid by semesters, rather than by the full academic
year. Payments are due in the first few weeks after the commencement of the
term upon the date specified in the statement sent to each student after registration. The Cashier's Office, conveniently located on the first floor of Abbott
Hall, receives these payments.
The Division of Student Finance, on the first floor of Abbott Hall, issues
th e statements and makes all ad justments.

WITHDRAWAL AND REFUNDS
Offi cial withdrawal forms are available at the General Office of the School
of Law. Students who withdraw before the end of on e-fourth of the term are
held for one-fourth of the tuition for the term. Students who withdraw after
the first one-fourth of the term a nd before the middle of the term are held for
one-half of the tuition for the term. Students who withdraw after the middle
of the term are held for full tuition. R egardless of the time of withdrawal,
students are held for all fees. In the case of exclusion for nonpayment of
tuition, the same charges are made in accordance with the above schedule. In
all cases either the date on which the student withdrew from classes and filed
a written withdrawal notice with the R egistrar of the L aw School or the date
of formal exclusion is used in figuring any adjustment on tuition .

REBATES TO FACULTY, STAFF, AND INSTRUCTORS
Undergraduate and graduate students in the following categories are eligible
to app ly for certain tuition rebates of up to 50 percent: (a) full-time faculty
1 1n many courses it is necessary to supply mimeographed materials to supplement assigned casebooks. This flat charge covers the cost of supplies and labo r to prepare such supplementary material. In a few courses mimeographed materi als are prepared by the instructor to replace completely
an assigned casebook. In those instances where the vo lume of material is substan ti al an additional
charge (less than the cost of th e usual casebook) is made. In neither situation is there any charge
made for the time of the instructor and his secretarial assistants spent in research , editing, and
cutting the stencils for the materials.

74

�and staff members listed on the regular twelve-month payroll of the University;
(b) dependent sons and daughters of such persons; (c) full-time employees of
affiliated institutions; (d) graduate students appointed as instructors and teaching part-time at Northwestern.
Informa tion concerning these rebates and application blanks are available
at the Student Finance Office, Abbott Hall. Applications must be filed with
that office before registration each term.
Student5 should call for the rebate checks at the Division of Student Finance, Abbott Hall, one day before their tuition bills become due. R ebate
checks are applicable on tuition charges only and cannot be accepted in payment of other fees.

STUDENT DEPOSIT ACCOUNT
The University maintains a student deposit account at th e Cashier's Office,
Abbott Hall, as an accommodation to students. Students may write only counter
checks payable to themselves against their deposits. There is no charge for this
service, and no interest is paid on deposits.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND OTHER
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
If a student has the ability and motivation necessary for the study of
law, the School is committed to providing all possible assistance so
that he can reach his educational goals. Through scholarships, loans, and
a limited amount of part-time work, many students are able to complete
their law studies at Northwestern with a minimum of initial savings or
outside financial aid.
Approximately one-third of the School's entering students receive
financial assistance in the form of scholarships or loans. The amounts
of the awards vary from a portion of tuition to full tuition plus a stipend
for subsistence. Ordinarily an award of financial assistance to a first-year
student is renewed for his second and third years of law study provided
he maintains a creditable class standing and his financial situation remains unchanged.
All or part of an award may be made subject to an obligation of
repayment after graduation. In these cases, repayment is ordinarily
made on an installment basis during the first few years following graduation. Interest does not accrue until the end of the first year after
graduation, and thereafter the rate is low.
Awards of financial assistance are made upon the basis of academic
promise and need. Each application is individually considered by a committee of faculty members and each award is determined by an individual
75

�appraisal of the student's qualifications for law study and monetary
needs. For students of exceptional ability who have adequate resources
for law study, a limited number of honorary scholarships are awarded
annually in recognition of pre-legal achievement. These special scholarships, described below, carry only a nominal financial award, so that
available funds may be devoted to the assistance of students who otherwise would be unable to study law.

MAKING APPLICATION FOR ASSISTANCE
Application forms for financial assistance may be obtained by writing
to the Office of Admissions of the Law School. Special application forms
are required for the Clarion DeWitt Hardy Scholarships, described below.
An application for financial assistance need not accompany the application for admission, but should be submitted as early as possible and in
any event not later than March 1 of the year of proposed entrance.
SCHOLARSHIPS AND GRANTS
In addition to substantial sums provided by the University and to
the generous annual gifts of Law alumni for scholarship purposes in the
Law School the following special scholarships and awards are available:
Clarion DeWitt Hardy Scholarships in Law. Scholarships providing
for tuition and for an additional amount up to $1,000 for expenses, depending upon the needs of the student, are available for several students
in each entering class. The amount is sufficient with average summer
earnings to enable the student to meet all typical costs of an academic
year. The scholarships are renewed each year for scholars who maintain
a good record and meet the other standards of the program. The scholarships are in honor of the late Professor Clarion DeWitt Hardy of the
School of Speech and were established by Owen L. Coon, an alumnus
who died in 1948, in memory of the man "who contributed most" to his
education. The purpose of the scholarships is to assist able students
whose desire to enter the legal profession includes the objective of devoting a part of their lives to public service. Requirements, in addition
to expressed interest in public service, are high scholastic attainment,
forensic and writing ability, and leadership qualities. Funds are provided by the Owen L. Coon Foundation, and the Hardy Scholarship
Committee of the faculty administers the program.
Russell Sage Foundation Scholarships. Several scholarships of $2,700
are available under a 1963 grant to the Law School and the Graduate
School of the University by the Russell Sage Foundation. The general
purpose of the grant is to foster a fuller appreciation by law students

corpus of the fund was increased by a gift of $10,000 from The Charles
Weinfeld Memorial Foundation. Amounts granted, within the discretion
of the Dean of the Law School, are for the purpose of paying tuition
and other expenses.
Ware Scholarship. The income from a $10,000 gift by Mrs. Fannie
M. Ware to establish a scholarship in memory of her son, Lieutenant

$5,000 in the will of the late Elmer A. Smith a scholarship is awarded
annually to a student who from the standpoint of character, ability,
promise, and financial need is deserving of financial assistance.
Chicago Title and Trust Company Foundation Scholarships. Since
1955 a total of $47,200 has been contributed by the Chicago Title and

FELLOWSHIPS
ADMISSION TO GRADUATE STUDY AND TO CANDIDACY
FOR ADV AN CED DEGREES
The admission of students who have been awarded a first degree in
law to graduate study or to candidacy for the degree of Master of Laws or
Doctor of Juridical Science are matters which rest within the discretion of
the Committee on Graduate Admissions.
Although foreign graduate students whose native language is not
English are eligible for admission as graduate students, they normally
are not admitted as candidates for a degree until they have completed
81

�Secretary of Housing and Urban Affairs Robert C. Weaver
addresses a conference on Town and Country Planning .

one semester's work as graduate students and have demonstrated duri ng
that time their capacity to complete successfully the degree requirements.
Experience indicates that foreign students whose native language is
not English have great difficulty in meeting the requirements unless they
h ave a good command of written and spoken English.
The School's graduate degrees are described full y on pages 55-57.
Application forms and additional information may be secured by writing
to the Committee on Graduate Admissions, Northwestern University
School of Law, 357 East Chicago A venue, Chicago, Illinois 60611.

TUITION, FEES, AND EXPENSES
Full informa tion concerning tuition and fees for graduate study
appears on pages 72-74 of the bulletin.
The expenses of an unmarried student for the academic year, including books, board and room, and incidentals (but excluding tuition and
fees) should approximate $1,400 to $ 1,5 00.
Accommodations for both married and unmarried graduate students
are avai lable on the University's Chicago campus.
The Law School has no funds available for travel expenses of graduate students. It is necessary for those accepted for graduate study to
make their own arrangements through the Fulbright program or otherwise.
82

�FELLOWSHIPS IN INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES
In 1957 the Ford Foundation made a grant to the Law School for
expansion of its program in International Legal Studies. The sum of
$7,000 a year is specifically made available for graduate fellowships for
foreign lawyers and students. Applicants interested in pursuing international legal studies as their major interest are given preference in the
awarding of these Ford Fellowships.
The Law School has long been interested in international law and
related subjects. The late Dean vVigmore inaugurated this interest and
laid the foundation for a substantial collection of international and
foreign law materials available in the Law Library. For many years the
School has offered a basic introductory course in International Law.
The School has also offered seminars in International Organization,
Comparative Law, Admiralty, and Civil Liberties on a comparative basis.
In furtherance of the grant the School has added a course in Family Law
with emphasis on comparative materials, a seminar in International Business Transactions, and a seminar on European Economic Organizations.
The James Nelson Raymond Fellowship is awarded on a competitive
basis to applicants, domestic or foreign, interested in any field of legal
study, including Interna tional Legal Studies.
The amount of each fellowship is $3,500. From that amount tuition
and fees are deducted. The amount of the fellowship award, after these
deductions, is paid in ten installments, the first being available on
September 15.
Since 1961 the General Electric Foundation has made an annual grant
of $5,000 for research in the field of problems of international and foreign
antitrust law.

POLICE LEGAL ADVISOR FELLOWSHIPS
Through the generosity of the Ford Foundation several fellowships.
are available each year for recent Law School grad uates with an interes t
in careers as Police Legal Advisors. The objective of this program is to·
train young lawyers for positions which may be described generall y as
"house counsel" to metropolitan police departments or to groups of
police departments in rural areas.
The period of training under a fellowship grant is two years. The·
first year is spent in residence at the Law School. During the second
year, the student will actually serve as legal adviser to a police depart-ment. At the end of that period, participants in the Program are eli-gible for the Master of Laws degree.
For young lawyers with one or more years of experience in the prac-·
tice of law the yearly stipend ranges between $6,500 and $8,500. Out
83:

�of the stipend for the first year, there is a deduction of approximately
$1,600 for tuition and fees. During the second year a further deduction
of $500 is made. Each year's stipend is considered tax exempt.
Similar fellowships are available to recent Law School graduates with
no experience as practitioners. The stipend for them is $4,200 for the
first year and $6,500 for the second year, with deductions and tax
exemptions as described above.
Fellowship recipients may begin their studies either in the first
semester (September) of each school year or in the second semester
(February).

GENERAL INFORMATION CONCERNING
GRADUATE FELLOWSHIPS
Additional information concerning the fellowships described above,
including application requirements, filing deadlines, and award dates,
may be obtained by writing to the Committee on Graduate Admissions of
the Law School.
Normally, fellowships are not awarded to foreign students who already
have spent a year in this country under another scholarship grant. Fellowships are granted for one year only.
None of the graduate fellowships described above contains provisions
for travel expenses. Students must make their own travel arrangements.
Successful fellowship applicants should also bring sufficient funds for
personal expenses from the time of arrival until September 15.

�In this century four distinguished scholars
and educators have led Northwestern's
School of Law. Dean John Ritchie assumed
the post in 1957.

That's where we learned our law ."

THE SCHOOL
AND ITS
ALUMNI
The bonds formed in the years of study at the Law School are enduring ones. The School through its Placement Service offers assistance
to the graduate in finding a position which promises satisfaction both in
economic terms and in terms of self-realization and contribution. And
the School's alumni band together both to keep alive memories and
friendships of student days and to provide the support so important
to the School.

PLACEMENT
At graduation the Northwestern law student JOms the century-long
procession of Law School alumni. A wide range of choice is open. To
provide its graduates with advice, guidance, and a broad selection of
opportunities for their legal careers, the Law School maintains a placement service under the direction of Assistant Dean William C. Chamberlin.
Through general announcements to the profession and particular
inquiries, the Placement Service gathers information on professional
opportunities and openings. The Placement Service compiles a com85

�plete listing of these opportumt1es, maintains files for the use of prospective graduates, and posts announcements of new openings to keep the
student's information current.
That the bar is overcrowded has been repeated in each generation.
But the demand for well-trained able young lawyers has not diminished,
and the rising level of starting salaries gives evidence of the professional
need. Each year the Placement Service receives inquiries and requests
from law firms, corporations, and government agencies for many times the
number of available graduates.
A majority of the Law School's alumni are engaged in the private
practice of law. Some have chosen to remain in Chicago, while others
have settled in cities and towns throughout the United States. In large
firms and in individual practice Northwestern graduates rank as leaders
of the bar in nearly every state in the nation and in several foreign countries. In service to their profession as well as their clients they have occupied the presidencies of the American, state, and local bar associations.
Not all alumni elect the rewards of private practice. Furthering a
strong tradition of public service, a number of men in each graduating
class accept positions with government at the national, state, or local
level. Working with prosecuting and investigating agencies, on government boards and commissions, and on the staffs of government departments, these men are often vested with major responsibilities and acquire
wide experience early in their professional lives. After a period of
government service many enter private practice, where their experience
in government is of great value. Others make public service a career and
attain high public office, elective or appointive.
The roster of Law School alumni includes governors and United
States Senators, cabinet members, department heads, and diplomats;
mayors, attorney-generals, and prosecutors; legislators and government
advisers.
The strength of the Northwestern tradition of public service is illustrated by a striking statistic: in more than half the Presidential campaigns of the past seventy years a Law School alumnus has been either
the candidate or a strong contender for the nomination of one of the
two major parties.
In the judiciary Northwestern men have served with distinction on
the benches of the highest courts, both federal and state. For the topranking students there are opportunities for clerkships with justices and
judges of the federal and state courts.
Openings in the field of law teaching are not numerous, and the
financial rewards are not great. Through the years Northwestern for
its size has contributed more than its share of the nation's law teachers.
Its graduates have joined the faculties of nearly all the major law schools
86

�A lumni gather in the Law School garden for a reunion.

in the United States, and many Northwestern men have served as deans,
university presidents, and leaders in other branches of education.
An expanding field of opportunity beyond the limits of traditional
practice is offered the Law School graduate interested in business, industry, and finance. In increasing recognition of the values of legal training,
corporations, banks, and companies in a wide range of enterprise have
come to seek Law School graduates not only for their legal staffs but for
executive positions as well. Attractive starting salaries and opportunities
87

�for advancement in management have combined to draw a substantial
number of graduates of the Law School. Alumni have risen to principal
executive posts in many of the nation's largest corporations in such fields
as transporation, oil, retailing, insurance, finance, public utilities, and
manufacturing.
From the array of professional opportunities open to him, the graduating student must choose for himself. It is the function of the Law
School's Placement Service to aid him in exploring the possibilities and to
arrange the necessary contacts.
Each year a large number of law firms from major cities throughout
the United States send partners to the Law School to interview advanced
students. Government agencies, corporations, and banks also send representatives to the School for interviews. In addition to the hundreds of
personal interviews conducted annually at the Law School, Placement
Service arranges for interviews of students in large numbers at law offices,
government agencies, and corporate headquarters.
A biographical summary is prepared and duplicated for each prospective graduate seeking a position, and appropriate letters of introduction
and recommendation are furnished.
Beyond its service to current graduates, the Placement Service also
handles the temporary placement of students with law firms and government agencies for summer vacation periods, in Chicago and elsewhere,
typically between the student's second and third years, and the placement
of alumni of earlier years who are returning from military service or are
seeking a change of position.

THE LAW ALUMNI ASSOCIAT ION
Over the years the Law School has enjoyed the loyal support of its
alumni. They commemorated the Law School's centennial by contributing substantially to the construction of Robert R. McCormick Hall and
the Owen L. Coon Library, and their generous annual gifts to the Law
Alumni Fund provide scholarships and significant support for the general
program of the School.
Many alumni assist directly in the educational program. A number
serve as judges in the Moot Court program. In addition, alumni are
frequently asked to draw upon their practical experience and special
knowledge in particular fields of law by participating in course work
or addressing student groups. They render invaluable assistance in connection with the placement program.
Each year alumni reunions are held during the meetings of the American Bar Association and various state bar associations. In addition, an
alumni dinner is held each spring in Chicago with a prominent guest
speaker. Also, a faculty-alumni luncheon is held in Chicago each fall.

�"Where there is arbitrary power, there

LAW
STUDY

AT

NORTHWESTERN
For more than a century the School of Law has been dedicated to
the education of men for all branches of endeavor in the law under
the highest standards of academic and professional excellence. This
dedication marks the character of the Law School today.
Professional training of the highest order and the development of
each student's unique capabilities are fostered by a close working relationship between student and teacher. Early in its history the Law School
adopted a policy of limited enrollment to promote educational quality.
Today Northwestern remains a law school of medium size, small in
comparison with others of national standing. The result is that each
student is the beneficiary of a significant share of the resources of the
School.
In furtherance of its objectives of excellence, the Law School maintains a policy of selective admission to assure that each student is capable,
first, of benefiting from challenging instruction and, second, of pursuing
intellectual goals with self-discipline and initiative. Those chosen are
students of independent and seeking mind, who need not be led but
who, on the contrary, can contribute to the education of their fellows
in cooperative endeavor. Instruction is conducted by a Faculty who
devote their full energies to legal education.
The facilities of the School have been designed in the belief that
balanced preparation for the profession cannot be confined to the
classroom. The Law School, with its comprehensive library arranged
for effective scholarship and its ample provision for informal conference
10

�and discussion, constitutes a self-sufficient center for legal learning. The
continuous exchange of thought and opinion in a cohesive student body
of outstanding men and women in close contact with a distinguished
faculty recalls the classic concept of a university as an independent
community of scholars.
The first law school in its state and region and among the oldest
in the nation, Northwestern enjoys a rich heritage.
The spirit of the profession is respected and preserved in the archiLecL ure and atmosphere of its buildings and in the traditions of student
life. At the same time, the School's program of instruction is designed
to prepare students for the broad challenge of the future. Long identified with forward-looking movements in legal education, the Law School
today offers a curriculum arranged to foster an understanding of the
formative principles that guide growth and change in the law, to educate lawyers not for the demands of the practice of the past or even of
the present, but for the years ahead in which today's students will live
out their professional lives.

In this century the law has emerged as a profession vitally integraLed
with every phase of the nation's economic, social, and political development. With advanced teaching materials and techniques, a deep tradition of scholarship, the broad educational resources of a great University,
and the professional and cultural enrichment of a metropolitan center,
the Law School continues to educate its students for the broad responsibilities and demands of the legal profession and the service of its ideals.
11

�". . . these n ob le buildings, designed for
one of the noblest uses to which any
building can be put-the teaching of law."

-Sir William Searle Holdsworth,
at the dedication of the
Law School buildings, June 16, 1927.

T HE
LAW

SCHOOL

Unlike the physical sciences, legal learning requires no elaborate
apparatus. The study of law is the study of ideas, and history teaches
that ideas may be born in the most adverse material circumstances. More
important than stone and mortar are the traditions and the spirit which
give life to the School and inspire its students and teachers.
For the serious student, however, a stimulating and congenial environment makes a unique contribution to the educational process. Professional training of the highest order requires more than a comprehensive
library and classrooms designed for effective teaching. There must be
places for reflection and concentration. There must be arrangements
conducive to informal interchange of thought and opinion between
student and student and between student and teacher. The atmosphere
should imbue the student of law with an appreciation for the ancient
traditions of the bar and for the professional heritage he will share.

LOCATION
The Law School is situated on the shore of Lake Michigan near the
center of Chicago. To the south, along the lake front, lie Grant Park,
a series of yacht basins, recreational facilities, museums of art and
natural history, a planetarium, and an aquarium. To the north extends
the noted Gold Coast, an area of fashionable residential apartments
separated from the lake by a continuous series of parks, beaches, golf
12

�courses, and boating facilities. Near by, to the west, is one of the city's
centers of art and entertainment. A half-mile to the southwest is the
Chicago Loop, the central business and shopping area, and the legal
and financial center of the region. Here are located the buildings housing
the offices of federal, state, and municipal government. In close proximity
to the Law School, convenient for student visits and observation, are
trial and appellate courts of both the state and federal governments,
ranging from the local small claims courts to the United States Court of
Appeals.
Situated in the stimulating intellectual climate of the metropolitan
center, the Law School enjoys unexcelled opportunities for laboratory
study of the law in action and benefits in addition from the ready
availability of outstanding specialists in every branch of the law. Frequent lectures, specialized courses, and supplementary class participation
by leading jurists, practitioners, and public officials enrich the basic
instruction.

PROFESSIONAL CAMPUS
The Law School constitutes part of the self-contained professional
campus of Northwestern University. Surrounding the Law School are
the separate buildings of the Graduate School of Business Administration
and the Medical and Dental Schools. Also on the campus are Thorne
Hall, an auditorium available for major convocations and ceremonies,
and Abbott Hall, the eighteen-floor student residence for the men and
women enrolled in these graduate schools, with dining rooms, cafeteria,
fo untain, lounges, athletic facilities, and accessory shops and services.
Living and studying on a self-sufficient graduate campus, the law
student broadens his perspective through contact with professional students in other disciplines but remains free from the distractions of
undergraduate life. Twelve miles north, on the original campus of the
University in suburban Evanston, the main body of undergraduate
students and about 1,900 graduate students are enrolled. This wooded,
lakeside campus is readily accessible to Law School students for cultural
events and intercollegiate athletics.
Physically autonomous, the Law School resembles a small college,
with the benefits of a cohesive academic community. As part of a great
U niversity, it enjoys as well the resources and vitality of a broad range
of learning. Outstanding professors from other schools and departments
participate in Law School instruction to make available the contributions of economics, psychiatry, sociology, anthropology, political science, and a variety of other disciplines in the understanding and solution of the problems of human behavior which are the province of law.
13

�Bounded by the waters of Lake Michigan immediately to the east
and by the surrounding campus, the Law School stands as an academic
preserve in the heart of a metropolis, enjoying the benefits of a central
site with few of its disadvantages.
LAW SCHOOL BUILDINGS
The Law School itself consists of a complex of buildings, functionally
integrated and arranged to form a quadrangle occupying the block
between Chicago Avenue and Superior Street. The original buildings,
Levy Mayer Hall and the Elbert H. Gary Library, were completed in
1926. Robert R. McCormick Hall and the Owen L. Coon Library, also
named for alumni of the School, were completed in 1960. The four
buildings present a harmonious exterior, all constructed of lime1,tone in
a modified Gothic design reminiscent of the historic structures of English
law. The quadrangle completely encloses the Law School garden.
Bordered by cloistered arcades, the garden, with its hedge-lined walks,
shaded corners, and stone benches, is a favored retreat for students and
Faculty in spring and autumn months.
In interior design and ornament, the older buildings of the Law
School are rich in the lore of the law. Medallions, seals, and shields in
legal motifs decorate the oak-paneled walls and corridors, and stainedglass designs accent the windows, linking the student with the past of
the profession. Some 2,500 portraits, engravings, etchings, and photographs, collected by the late Dean John H. Wigmore in the United
States, England, and on the Continent, are hung about the School to illustrate the men and events of the law throughout history and throughout
the world. The atmosphere is blended in the newer buildings with the
clean lines of modern functionalism. Both libraries and Robert R.
McCormick Hall are air-conditioned.
CLASSROOMS
The Law School contains seven major classrooms. These generous
facilities make it possible to schedule a number of classes at the same
time, reducing the number of students in each class meeting. The classes
are divided into sections for all work in the first and second years. As
a consequence, the number of students attending a class seldom exceeds
eighty-five and is often much smaller. Such classes, small by general law
school standards, encourage responsible participation by each student
in the probing, analytical discussion that ts the mark of legal education
at Northwestern.
In each classroom the student is provided with a continuous tabledesk or with a free-standing oak desk for his course materials and notebooks. In most of the rooms the student desks are elevated in tiers and
14

�surround the instructor's desk in amphitheatre style, facilitating communications, in both directions, between student and teacher. The
three newer classrooms are equipped for the use of audio-visual aids.
Lincoln Hall, the largest classroom, was modeled after the British House
of Commons in dimensions and seating arrangement. It is used principally for major co-curricular lectures, public conferences, and student
assemblies.

SEMINAR ROOMS
For instruction at a more advanced and individualized level, the
Law School buildings provide four seminar rooms. Here small groups
of students, typically from twelve to twenty, are seated at a single large
table with a Faculty member for an informal and detailed analysis of
problem areas lying at the frontiers of legal development. In such
study, the student necessari ly bears a large measure of responsibility
for giving direction and substance to the discussion.
Notable among the seminar rooms of the School is the Wigmore
Room, named for the former Dean and furnished with memorabilia of
his distinguished career. Installed in a concealed portion of the room
are the Wigmore chimes, a unique musical machine that plays "The
Counsellor's Chorus," the Law School song composed by Dean Wigmore
himself. MacChesney H all in the newer building is handsomely furnished with a table thirty-five feet in length and richly upholstered

�chairs. The Williams Room, renovated and refurnished in 1961, is
similiarly appointed. The Frank Hill Thatcher Seminar Room is situated above the library overlooking the lake.

COURTROOM
For practice and instruction in the arts of advocacy, the School has
a fully equipped modern courtroom, complete with witness stand, jury
box, counsel tables, and seating for spectators. Of striking modern design, the Getz Courtroom is used both for practice trials and for the
argument of mock appeals.

LIBRARY
The indispensable instruments of the lawyer's calling are books, and
a comprehensive and well-arranged library is essential to effective training for the profession. The library, with its associated research facilities,
is the heart of the Law School.
The Northwestern Law School library consists of two buildings, integrated physically and administered as a unit, the Elbert H. Gary Library
and the Owen L. Coon Library. In combination, the library occupies a
full side of the Law School quadrangle extending from Chicago Avenue
to Superior Street, and includes four floors of working area. The constantly growing collection contains over 225,000 volumes, is among the six
largest law school libraries in the Western world and constitutes the
largest legal collection in the Chicago area.
More important than sheer size, however, is the utility of the collection. The main reading room of the library occupies the highest floor
of the building, and is divided by shelved partitions into dozens of
secluded but well-lighted alcoves fitted with large working tables and
chairs to provide convenient accommodations close by the books. The
arrangement is repeated on the lower floors, with the addition of a number of individual carrels for sustained and concentrated research. Included on a lower level are glass-walled typing areas with individual
sound-proof carrels open to any student who may wish to type a research paper or to re-organize his course notes.
The library is operated under an open-stack policy to bring readers
and books together without unnecessary formalities. The student is free
to browse and to search at will through the collection, and he may call
upon either the expert full-time staff of sixteen or the eighteen assistants
if he is in need of guidance, aid, or suggestions. The library is open daily
throughout the year, and in the evenings as well whenever the School
is in session. To free the general collection from the heavy demands of
Faculty scholarship, a separate working collection is maintained for
Faculty use.
16

�The course of instruction has been designed to encourage the use of
these library resources and to assure that each student will be capable of
independent and scholarly legal research. In a required course in the
first term of his legal education, the student receives individual instruction in the techniques of assembling and using the varied materials of
research in the law, from the most ancient reports to the latest modern
developments. During the remainder of his studies he accumulates
experience and develops his powers of perceptive, resourceful research
through work in moot court, supplementary course studies, research in
advanced seminars, and the preparation of articles and papers for the
School's legal publications.
The library's collection includes substantially all the reported decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and territories,
Great Britain and the Commonwealth, together with their statutes and
session laws, and subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, textbooks, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary to form a
complete working collection for every legal system in the English language. This Anglo-American collection is supplemented by a selection
of works in the fields of history, economics, government, and the other
social and behavioral sciences. The library also receives every current
legal periodical of general interest printed in the English language.

Student lounges are useful for light
reading and casual talk between classes.

Study alcoves in the library reading
room encourage concentration.

17

�More than one-third of the total co llection is made up of works in the
fields 0£ toreign and international law. The comprehensive materials
in foreign law include the codes, treatises, decisions, and journals of all
major European countries and Japan, and good working collections in
Latin-American law. Furthering its forward-looking policies, the library
began at an early elate to build a complete collection in the law of nations, going beyond the domestic laws of the separate countries to emphasize the rules of law controlling their relations with each other. This
large collection includes the documents of the international organizations, the international courts, treaty series and official diplomatic documents, treatises and monographs, periodicals from all parts of the world,
and the whole permits original and useful work to be carried on in the
field of public international law.
Holdings in other specialized fields include a comprehensive collection of treatises, periodicals, and documents in criminal law and its
administration, and a special collection of materials in aeronautics, including aviation law, commerce, and other works in the field exclusive
of technical engineering publications. In addition, the library includes
outstanding collections of medieval law, jurisprudence, legal history,
and comparative law, and valuable resources in Roman law. Especially
notable is the Williams Collection of Legal Instruments dating from
A.D. 1300 to 1700 which comprises more than five hundred original
manuscript instruments executed in connection with landed estates.
The Law School library is independent in administration and organization, but its comprehensive resources are supplemented in specialized
areas through inter-library loans and other cooperative arrangements
with the general University library, departmental libraries, and the major
public, educational, and legal collections in the region.
A special feature of the library is its distinguished rare book collection, housed in the handsome Hardy Scholars Treasure Room adjoining
the main reading room. These early volumes, numbering some 2,500,
have been acquired through the years and represent a variety of fields.
Many are first editions of the classics of the law, including a number of
manuscripts and incunabula, that is, books printed before 1500. A
number are either unique or the only copies in the Western Hemisphere.
The value of these books is not primarily antiquarian, however. They
have been gathered and selected because they are indispensable for
effective legal research in areas that may be vital both to scholars and
practitioners.
Although the reserve facilities of the library have been constructed
with foresight to accommodate an eventual collection twice the size of
the current holdings, provision has also been made for the use of the
materials of legal research of the future. A section of the library is fully
18

�fitted with the basic equipment for the use of microfilm and microcards,
designed to replace conventional books and to ameliorate their problems
of bulk and deterioration.
As the practitioner of a learned profession, the lawyer is more than
a craftsman. To encourage a wide-ranging interest among the students,
a section of the main reading room has been set aside for casual reading
in fields of current or general significance. Comfortably furnished, the
browsing area offers current periodicals as well as a broad selection of
biographical and miscellaneous works.
STUDENT FACILITIES
In informal give-and-take discussion with his fellows, the student
lawyer develops his powers of analysis and expression. To foster these
close student relationships that have marked the best in legal education
since the profession's beginnings, the Law School has set aside a substantial share of its facilities for student use. Lounges are provided in Levy
Mayer Hall for short periods of study or relaxation before class. Lowden
Hall, named for the first of the School's alumni to serve as governor of
Illinois, is the principal student lounge and is rich with reminders of
the history of law and the Law School. Its equipment and comfortable
furnishings include a fireplace and, for lighter moments, a piano. On
the lower level, adjacent to the locker area, are dispensers of coffee, milk,
soft drinks, and snacks, and two rooms equipped with tables for a coffee
break. or light luncheon.
A unique feature of the Law School is the fourth-floor study area.
Here some eight rooms are devoted exclusively to student use for informal
review sessions or individual study. Each room is supplied with reading
tables or desks, chairs, and high-backed benches to accommodate f:r:om
four to ten students. These rooms are open and available to all students
while the School is in session.
Separate offices are furnished for the various co-curricular activities
conducted under student auspices and control. The officers of the Junior
Bar Association and the staff of the Law R eview, the Julius H. Miner
Moot Court Competition, the Student Book Exchange, and candidates
for the S.J.D. degree enjoy the benefit of private offices.
FACULTY OFFICES
In keeping with long-standing tradition at the Law School, Faculty
members are readily available to individual students for questions and
conferences. The tradition is physically embodied in the Law School
buildings, where each Faculty office opens directly onto the main corridors for access without formalities or intermediaries. The arrangement
leads to frequent and fruitful contact between student and teacher.
19

�"[Here the] teaching will . . . give men
what they want to know when they go out
to fight, but . . . it will send them forth
with a pennon as well as with a sword,
to keep before their eyes in the long
battle the little flutter that means ideals,
honor, yes, even romance, in all the dull
details."

OF

INSTRUCTION
The purpose of the Law School is to prepare its graduates for effective service in all fields of law. The course of instruction has been organized through experience, experiment, and analysis to offer legal
education of the highest order, to qualify men and women not only for
the private practice of the profession but for careers in government
service, in the fields of commerce and finance, and in legal education as
well. The program is designed to provide a broad training in the techniques of the law and an understanding of its institutions to the end
that the graduate will be equipped for practice in any legal system based
upon the foundations of Anglo-American law. The curriculum does
not concentrate upon imparting a knowledge of the legal rules applicable in any one jurisdiction or region. Rather, it concentrates upon the
development of the fundamental capacities and skills of the lawyer.
Human activity is infinitely varied and ever changing. Law, bringing
order and direction to the relations of men, involves a continuous process
of growth and adjustment. Every legal problem and each case that comes
to the lawyer is, in a sense, unique. Effective professional education must
therefore prepare the student to deal with situations never before encountered, to direct the resources of the law to new fields of human
endeavor, and to handle not the problems of the past but the cases of
the future .
20

�Reflecting this objective, the program of instruction in the Law
School differs markedly from the usual undergraduate instruction. It requires, of course, diligence and effort for a mastery of the formal materials of the course. Beyond this foundation, the instruction demands
thought and initiative of the individual student to extend his learning
beyond the limits of the materials and to stretch his powers of analysis.
As the lawyer must deal with new situations throughout his professional
life, so the student lawyer is taught to transcend rote learning and to
find his way in unfamiliar contexts. The result is an intellectual challenge that is both rewarding and stimulating. The individual student is
spurred to go as far as his mind and industry will carry him.
CLASSES

The law student typically attends classes for fifteen or sixteen hours
during the course of the Law School's five-day week. Class meetings are
scheduled throughout the morning and afternoon to break the pace and
to permit the student to review his preparation during open hours
before class. Two or three times as many hours are devoted to individual study as are spent in class. Time spent in valuable act ivities and
independent research must be added to the requirements of course work.
The study of law, therefore, is a full-time occupation.
In a typical Law School term, the student's class attendance will be
distributed among four or five courses. Some of the subjects represent
ancient categories of the law. Course titles such as Criminal Law, Property, Contracts, and Torts go back, as separate topics, to the days of Lord
Coke or Blackstone. But life has changed since those early days in the
law, and even these traditional subjects have altered substantially in content. Today in Torts the focus is on such disparate objects as the automobile and the atom and upon the legal problem each presents to an
energized society. Property law today concerns itself not only with ancient learning but as well with such topics as urban renewal and air
rights. Criminal Law more and more is concerned with psychiatry, the
causes of crime, and modern correctional theories. The law of Contracts
today finds itself dealing with rocket construction.

�The changing character of law is reflected in the content of traditional courses, altered to keep pace with a changing society. It is reflected,
too, in the newer courses introduced by the Law School into the law
curriculum to deal with emerging areas of legal service. The lawyer is a
full-time student for only one period in his professional life. Within the
limits of the possible, he must be educated in that brief span for the responsibilities of the legal profession, not just for the day, but for the half
century of lawyer's work that lies ahead. So it is that Labor Relations,
Taxation, Administrative Law, Civil Rights, and Trade Relations were
introduced into the basic program of the Law School during the formative years of those subjects, anticipating the current recognition of their
significance. Courses and seminars in International Law, Scientific Evidence, Comparative Law, and International Business Transactions illustrate the fashion in which a dynamic law school today shapes its instructional program to meet the needs of the profession for the years to come.

THE THREE-YEAR CURRICULUM
In the last century, Northwestern was among the first of the nation's
law schools to require three years of study for a degree in law, setting the
norm in legal education. Beginning students enter the Law School in
September and attend the two semesters of the regular academic year for
three years. By attending optional summer sessions, however, students
may earn their degrees in twenty-eight months.
During his first year of law study, the student follows a prescribed
course designed to provide an understanding of basic legal principles and
concepts, and to give a solid grounding in the fundamentals indispensable for all branches of the profession. Here the student encounters the
grand divisions of private law-Property, Tort, and Contract-as well as
Constitutional Law and Criminal Law. In the first term, the members
of the first-year class are taught the use of legal research materials and
throughout the year are given individual instruction in legal writing. A
senior Faculty member is designated as adviser for each entering student
to aid in the adjustment to legal education and to assist in particular
problems or difficulties.
Some opportunity for elective courses and seminars appears in the
second-year curriculum, and the widest choice is afforded in the third
year. The student, however, does not normally "specialize" in the course
of his law school career.
The student who hopes to become a corporation lawyer, or a criminal
lawyer, or a tax lawyer will, for the most part, follow the same basic
course of study others are pursuing. The aspiring tax lawyer's program
will only be a course or two heavier in the tax field than that of his com22

�panion who expects to go into corporate practice with a large city firm
or another who plans to return to a small town for general practice. A
broad base in fundamentals is necessary in every field, and intelligent
choice can be made only from a general familiarity with the available
fields. Lawyers quite regularly turn up in posts of responsibility neither
they nor their law school faculties envisioned. The wide range of electives offered by the Law School permits a modest degree of specialization
but, more significantly, allows the student to follow the bent of his personal interests and to sample a variety of problems in the law.
In the second and third years, courses are frequently arranged so that
the student will examine related fields of law at the same time and be
made aware of their interrelations. An example of this functional integration of related courses is afforded by the seminar in Law and the
Industrial Society, in which the economic, political, and legal problems
of policy common to the fields of Corporations, Labor Relations, and
Trade Relations are studied and discussed.
Problems of law, especially those dealt with in advanced courses, are
often involved with problems of business and government. In recognition
of these ties, materials from other disciplines are integrated with legal
studies, and special lecturers are drawn not only from among the specialists in the profession and the faculties of their departments of the University, but from the business community and government as well.
It is in the advanced courses principally that the student is offered the
opportunity to explore the frontiers of the law and to work in close
cooperation with the members of the Faculty. Small classes and frequent
individual conferences on research papers bring student and teacher into
rewarding personal relationships. In addition, a number of upperclassmen are chosen annually to serve as research assistants to the Faculty,
each assigned personally to a professor to aid in scholarly activities.

FACULTY
The basic instruction in the Law School program is conducted by the
full-time resident Faculty, who take teaching as their first responsibility.
Each member is experienced in private practice and a number have
served in responsible government posts as well. Many are called upon
for consultation and advice by government agencies and private groups,
and are active in the organizations and affairs of the legal profession.
Their scholarly activities include the delivery of lectures and addresses
before legal and public bodies as well as the preparation of learned
treatises and articles. Such activities serve to complement and to enrich
the instruction. The casebooks and other teaching materials for a majority of the courses offered in the School were prepared by the teachers
23

�who conduct the classes, and many are widely used, standard works m
their respective fields.

THE METHODS OF INSTRUCTION
In recognition of the lawyer's function of articulating the conflicting
interests of society, instruction in modern law schools is conducted principally through participation by the class. 1o longer does the student
lawyer listen passively in a lecture audience. To maximize the educational benefits of active participation, Northwestern Law School has
adopted a curricular policy emphasizing instruction through relatively
small classes and seminars. First-year courses enrolling 175 students or
more have no place in the Law School program. The entering student
will find himself attending classes with a group of approximately half
that size. Seminars are limited in enrollment and commonly range in
size from ten to twenty students. Instruction of this kind requires a low
student-faculty ratio. The program of the School is based upon the conviction that this concentration of educational resources upon the individual student is most effective in developing the skills that distinguish
the legal profession.
The methods of instruction in the Law School vary from course to
course, in response to the nature of the subject matter, the role assigned
to the course in the total training of the lawyer, and the teaching philosophy of the instructor. For descriptive purposes, instructional methods
may be grouped in four general categories.
THE CASE METHOD
The case method of teaching, employed principally in the first two years of study, is founded upon the premise that
the first objective of law training is to develop an understanding on the
part of the student of how and why the courts decide cases as they do.
The method was adopted at the Law School in the earliest years of its
evolution. The materials of study are the actual decisions of courts,
embodied in written opinions rendered in real and disputed cases, rather
than a textbook compendium of legal rules. The cases themselves are the
specimens of legal controversy to be examined and dissected. The student
is brought to the level of a participant in the proceeding, analyzing each
stage in the course of litigation and each step in the process of decision.
Through painstaking scrutiny of a large number of cases, the student
shares, vicariously, the experience of the lawyers and judges who conducted them, and thereby gains an understanding of the judicial process
based on observation of the law in action at first hand.
Although the case method varies, in its use, with the approach of the
24

�Casebooks and treatises by members of the Law School Faculty constitute
basic mate rials of instruction.

professor, the teaching styles grouped under this heading have certain
characteristic elements in common.
Under the case system it is essential that students prepare thoroughly
and intensively before class. The course materials for this preparation
consist of a casebook, a collection of actual decisions in related kinds of
controversy. The student at Northwestern will find tha t the authors of
many of his casebooks are his own professors, authorities in their respective fields . The class session in a case-taught course typically will not
offer a lecture but rather a discussion of several of these cases, conducted
in the manner of a Socratic dialogue between the teacher and students.
Questions are designed to test the student's understanding of the case,
to identify the considerations that controlled the decision, and to probe
its implications for similar situations and its relation to other decisions.
The discussion is conducted in an atmosphere of unrelenting questioning of each idea presented, by both fellow students and instructor.
Through the guidance of provocative questions, the students develop a
healthy skepticism, a capacity for independent critical judgment, and
a tough-minded approach to legal materials.
Although the professor may upon occasion depart from the interrogating role to explain the background of a legal problem or to give
direction to the class discussion, the essence of the case method is the
collective probing and searching, the crucible of give and take in which
the student's own powers of reason and analysis are tempered and developed. The system is in fact designed to cast back to the student, with
the benefit of group discussion, the task of developing for himself an
2fi

�understanding, first, of what courts and administrative agencies do and
why they do it, and, second, of how to participate effectively in the
process. From the outset of his law school career, the student is thus led
to do what he will do throughout his professional life-to think, to
analyze, and to decide on his own initiative.
With their interplay of ideas and clash of opinion, class sessions are
seldom dull. Since the significant formulation in the progress of the discussion may well come from a fellow student, and since any student may
be drawn into the discussion at any time, alertness and concentrated
attention are required of all. With collective thought focused on the
problem provided or suggested by the case, there are times when minds
stretch and their reach even may be extended. The mainstay of the firstyear curriculum, the case method of teaching, is withal a singularly
exciting and stimulating intellectual experience for the beginning law
student.

THE PROBLEM METHOD
The problem method, an instructional technique originated at the Law School and increasingly employed
throughout legal education, is used in many second- and third-year
courses. Here the emphasis is not upon the cases or administrative decisions as such. The focus of the student's work and of the class session is
rather a set of facts raising legal problems for which there may indeed be
no authoritative solution. The student's task is to take the available
materials in the forms of decisions, statutes, and administrative rulings
and to construct or create his own solution to the problem.
Perhaps the problem is set at the stage where the businessman asks
for advice on a proposed transaction. Perhaps the transaction has already
taken place and the problem concerns the consequences to be attached
to the transaction by the federal or state government by way of taxation
or regulation. In short, the problems are much like those which come to
the lawyer in actual practice, and in fact the problems are frequently
drawn from life. Consultative practice by some members of the Faculty
and the generally close relationship between the School and the practicing profession combine to provide the student in a problem-method
course with an experience that closely approximates the practice of law.
Characteristically in a course taught by this method, the student submits before the class session a short memorandum solution to the problem, based on his analysis of relevant source material. In the class session he, or one of his fellow students, will be invited to explain the legal
issues presented by the problem situation and the views he takes of those_
issues. Discussion, often vigorous, follows.
Sometimes a particular decision or statute may relate directly to the
problem, and at times the class session may be devoted to the examimi26

�tion of a leading case and its relevance to the problem assigned. At other
times the problem may fall in an area where the legal landmarks are
few, and the imaginative use of statutory materials and administrative
regulations is required. Nor are the problem sessions merely exercises
in developing the technical skills of the lawyer in marshalling and utilizing available legal materials in the solution of particular problems.
Often the specific, concrete problem supplies the perspective in which
basic questions of social policy, of the why and how of the development
of the law, can be considered in meaningful context.

SEMINARS
Opportunities are offered in the second and third years
for seminar WOl'k in a variety of fields. Here the student is free to select
subjects of special interest to him and to explore new areas of the law.
In a group commonly numbering from twelve to twenty, with the guidance of a senior Faculty member, the student will engage in intensive
individual work on some aspect of the general subject embraced by the
seminar. It is in the seminars that research on the frontiers of the law
is most commonly undertaken. Emerging areas of policy where the resources of the law may contribute include, for example, the control of
atomic energy, urban renewal, extending equal protection of the laws
into various aspects of national life, and the peaceful settlement of international disputes. And it is in seminar work that the law student
will be expected to cut across the disciplines and to bring to the law
additional material from such fields as economics, sociology, psychiatry,
and political science. Experts in such disciplines frequently participate
in seminar meetings.
Often the seminar student writes a major paper and presents this
product of his own research for the critical consideration of the seminar
group. With the stimulus of special interest in the subject matter and the
spur of friendly criticism from interested fellow students in prospect,
significant legal research is done in the seminars. Some of the papers
are printed in the professional journals published by the Law School,
and research done in the seminar program has on occasion been favorably
noticed in the opinions of some of the highest courts.
PRACTICE COURSES
One hundred and fifty years ago there were
no American law schools. The aspiring attorney prepared himself by
working in the office of an established lawyer, observing the practice of
law, and learning through trial and error the arts and skills of the profession. The advantages of such training are preserved today, within a
systematic curriculum for post-graduate study, in the practice courses
offered throughout the three years of the student's formal legal education. In these courses the student actually practices in skills that the
27

�pract1cmg attorney is called upon to employ, and through experience
and through exercising his own powers, he learns the job of the lawyer.
In addition to the elements of actual practice presented in every
course offered by the Law School, instruction through practice is the
specific object of a number of courses. Prominent among these is the
course known as Legal Clinic. In 1910, Northwestern introduced to legal
education the idea of giving law students actual experience in practice
by providing legal services for the poor. Under this program, law students, during the last half of their training, serve in the Clinic under
the supervision of a Faculty member. The Clinic handles all kinds of
civil cases, and the student may consult with clients, interview witnesses,
prepare pleadings and other instruments, appear in court, and assist in
the conduct of trials. The training fills a function similar in many
respects to that of the internship in medical education.
During his first year, the student is instructed in the techniques of
oral and written argument in the course in Moot Court. Practicing the
lawyer's skills, he is required to prepare a written brief in compliance
with prevailir.ig professional standards, and to argue his case, opposed by
a fellow student, under courtroom conditions before a court composed
of prominent alumni and Faculty members. This instruction is continued on a voluntary basis in the second year.
In the third year, the student is offered a choice of practice courses in
the trial of a lawsuit from its beginning to end. The instruction provides
the student with actual experience in examining witnesses, presenting
evidence, arguing to a jury, and the like. The student thus learns by
doing, not merely by precept, what the trial lawyer must be able to do.
Most of the lawyer's practice is carried on in his office, not in the
courtroom. To prepare its graduates for the work of counseling, advising, and planning, the Law School offers a number of practice courses in
which the student is called upon to draw the legal instruments and documents which the practicing attorney must be able to prepare. In the first
year, the student is assigned office memoranda on legal problems, under
individual supervision. As an upperclassman, he may select practice
courses in such fields as the drafting of wills and the planning of personal
estates, or the drafting of laws and legislative documents.

REQUIRED COURSES
For a student to be recommended for the degree of Juris Doctor,
successful completion of the courses prescribed for the first and second
years is required. In addition, he must satisfy the following requirements: a minimum of two hours of 'seminar work involving substantial
individual research and writing exclusive of participation in the Law
Review Seminar; one hour of Accounting (except for students with at
least three semester-hours of college credit in that subject); the course
28

�in Professional Responsibility; Legal Clinic (required of all students
who entered the Law School in September, 1963, or thereafter except
members of the Law R eview); and at least one course or seminar in
International Law. Although the Faculty may ch ange the requirements
for graduation at any time, this responsibility will not be exercised so as
to place an undue burden upon any enrolled student who has planned
his program on the basis of previously announced requirements.

COURSE LOAD
Courses totaling sixteen credit-hours in any term, in the opm10n of
the Faculty, represent the maximum amount of work which a good student can do effectively under favorable condi tions. On the other hand,
each student is expected to register for not less than fourteen credithours of work each term.
LIMITED ENROLLMENT
The seminars and the courses in Trial Technique, Trial Practice,
and Introduction to Litigation are limited in enrollment. The School
cannot assure that all students wishing to enroll in a particular seminar,
Trial Technique, Trial Practice, or Introduction to Litigation can be
accommodated.

SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAMS
In the total educational program of the Law School, the formal course work
within the curriculum is supplemented by a variety of additional offerings. Lectures by distinguished scholars, jurists, and statesmen from the United States
and abroad serve as cultural adjuncts to the regular courses a n&lt;l emphasize the
broader public obligations of the profession. In recognition of the Law School's
role in the life of the profession, the community, and the nation, conferences
are held which bring together leaders of thought and action for discussion of
subjects of major public importance. Through participation in these programs,
the student broadens his vision and develops the sense of public responsibility
which characterizes the highest traditions of the bar.
Many of these curricular supplements are presented by the Law School as an
integral part of the general educational program, upon an occasional basis and
without special sponsorship. Others are offered as part of established and continuing programs within the School. The most notable of these established
programs are described below.

with a special interest in criminal law adm inistration .
The Police Legal Advisor Graduate Student proj ect d escribed elsewhere in
this bulletin under "Graduate Fellowships" is an integral part of the general
criminal law program.

THE PROGRAM OF INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES
In 1957, the Ford Foundation awarded i200,000 to the Law School for the
expansion of its program in Interna tional Legal Studies. The School's early
interest in the field is manifested by its substantial and seasoned library collections in foreign and international law and by its long-standing requirement
that each student pursue some international studies. In furtherance of its pro48

�gram, the School has offered seminars in International Business Transactions,
International Organization, Comparative Law, Admiralty, and Civil Liberties
on a comparative basis, and a course in Family Law, with emphasis on comparative materials.
The funds of the grant are used for additional Faculty and for visiting
foreign professors, and they support graduate fellowships for foreign lawyers
and students. Other portions of the funds are devoted to work-seminars and
conferences in the field of international law.

THE PROGRAM IN LAW AND THE SOCIAL SCIENCES
In 1963, the Russell Sage Foundation awarded approximately $210,000 to
the Law School and the Graduate School of the University for a three-year program of interdisciplinary study and research in law and the social sciences. One
purpose of the grant is to stimulate awareness of lawyers and law students of
the contribution of the behavioral sciences to the understanding and improvement of the legal order. The other principal goal of the program is to foster
among social scientists an understanding of the nature and implications of the
legal order for their own disciplines. To achieve these ends, scholarships are
awarded in both the Graduate School of the University and in the School of
L aw (see page 69) . The Sage Scholars in the Law School ordinarily will be
expected to take for credit a group of seminars cutting across a number of disciplines. They may also expect to be involved in special research activity.

"PHILOSOPHY FROM LAW" CONFERENCES
In accordance with the terms of a grant of $10,000 from Mr. Oscar van Leer,
an alumnus of the Law School, a series of conferences under the general title
of "Philosophy from Law" was inaugurated in September 1963.
The objective of the grant was to bring together scholars of various disciplines, lawyers, and judges for the purpose of attempting to distill from the
d iscipline of the law some insights beyond the usual professional skills which
may contribute to man's understanding of himself and his society.
In accordance with this general objective, the particular subject of the
first conference was "Compromise and Decision Making in the Resolution of
Controversies." The principal paper for the conference was written by Professor John Coons of the Law School; it was followed by a number of written
and oral comments by distinguished guest participants.
The second conference in the series will be held in September 1965 and
will be devoted to the subject "Equal Justice in an Unequal World."

THE
STUDENT
BODY
A well-seasoned aphorism, familiar to law students everywhere, says
that a law student receives his education from his classmates. Like many
an old saw, the observation contains within its exaggeration a kernel of
truth. Law school instruction is built upon student participation. Beyond the classroom, the student continues his professional preparation in
give-and-take discussion, corridor debate, and friendly argument with
his fellows. The vitality of the Law School is measured by the quality
and vigor of its student body.
At Northwestern the entering student finds himself a member of a
close-knit community of men and women, bound together by a common
pursuit and by the rich traditions of the Law School's history. The student body is comparatively small, averaging approximately 450 students,
thus facilitating wide acquaintance among the students. For purposes
of instruction, most of the classes are divided into sections, further guarding the individual from being submerged in the mass.
The beginner himself will have been carefully chosen through a
policy of selective admission designed to assure that every member of the
class is capa-ble of legal study at the highest and most challenging level.
His classmates will be high-ranking graduates of the leading colleges and
50

�universities in the United States and abroad. In a spirit of healthy competition, the student realizes his own full capacities in keeping pace with
his fellows.
Students benefit from friendly relationships with fellow students coming from a wide variety of backgrounds. The typical student body consists of men and women from some thirty-five states and eight or ten
foreign countries. Approximately 125 colleges and universities are represented by graduates enrolled in the Law School (see pp. 87-88). A variety
of undergraduate majors are included, and many students have earned
graduate degrees in other fields before entering the Law School.
Law students as a whole tend to be individualistic and venturesome,
and a broad range of opinion and experience is encompassed in the
student body. The stimulating contacts of student life at the Law School
combine to develop a mature, tolerant, and broadened outlook in the
individual student.

LEGAL PUBLICATIONS
THE NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW
Foremost among the Law School's student activities is the publication
of the Northwestern University Law Review, one of the nation's leading
professional journals. The Review is circulated widely among lawyers
and judges and is often cited in briefs and judicial opinions. The tradition in the legal world of professional journals being accepted as authoritative within the profession, although written, edited, and published by
men who have not yet achieved professional status, is unique among
the professions. Work on the Law Review is at once the most demanding
and rewarding experience available to the law student.
A law journal entitled the Northwestern Law Review was first established by students of the School during the academic year 1892-93, within
five years of the appearance of the first student journal in the nation.
Publication was continued in 1906, after a ten-year suspension, under the
title Illinois Law Review.
For a period beginning in 1924 editorship was shared with the law
schools of the University of Chicago and the University of Illinois. In
1932, Northwestern students resumed full control, and in 1952 the name
was changed to Northwestern University Law Review.
At the end of their first year, students of highest scholastic standing
are chosen to write commentary on legal problems for publication and
to carry on the research, editing, and related work of the Review. Selection is one of the highest honors and greatest responsibilities the Law
School can bestow. The work of the Law Review is so integrated with
the instructional program of the School that participation is normally a
51

�requisite for election to the Order of the Coif. Because of their rich
educational experience and resulting excellent qualification for any field
of the profession, Law R eview editors are sought and preferred after
graduation by leading law firms, government, and private business. The
fa ct that the student body is not large means that at Northwestern the
opportunities for Law R eview participation are somewhat broader than
in many other schools.
Although Law R eview students work hard, they take one day off each
spring to play a softball game with the Faculty and to hold a dinner
where the principal sport is caricaturing the foibles of their professors.
THE JOURNAL OF CRIMINAL LAW,
CRIMINOLOGY AND POLICE SCIENCE
Another Law School publication that is available for the publishable
products of student scholarship is the journal of Criminal Law, Crim in ology and Police Science. This Journal, with a world-wide circulation,
is the foremost publication of its kind. It has been in continuous publication since 1910. Professor Fred E. Inbau is its Editor-in-Chief and
Managing Director. The Assistant Editor is James R. Thompson, Assistant Director of the Law School's Criminal Law Program. They are
assisted by a Board of Consulting Editors composed of some of the
country's outstanding legal scholars and criminologists.
The section of the Journal devoted to Police Science is under the
editorship of Ordway Hilton, Examiner of Questioned Documents, New
York City. He is assisted by a Board of Consulting Editors in the fields
of police administration, criminalistics, and forensic sciences generally.

JULIUS H. MINER MOOT COURT COMPETITION
To provide continuing practice and instruction in the arts of appellate advocacy, the first-year course in Moot Court is supplemented by the
Julius H . Miner Moot Court Competition for advanced students in the
School. Made possible by an endowment memorializing Judge Julius H .
Miner, the program is conducted, under Faculty supervision, by thirdyear students comprising the Moot Court Board and involves the preparation of appellate court briefs and the presentation of oral arguments
before panels of judges, practicing attorneys, and Faculty members. The
cases typically raise issues of current legal importance, more complex and
challenging than those assigned in the regular first-year course. The final
argument is conducted before the entire student body, customarily with
distinguished judges from the federal bench. Those who have served
as presiding judges for final arguments include Associate Justices Arthur
J. Goldberg (an alumnus of the Law School), Byron R. White, and Tom
C. Clark of the Supreme Court of the United States. The finalists repr esent the School in the National Moot Court Competition.

�STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY:
THE JUNIOR BAR ASSOCIATION
Law students are only a few short steps removed from the prattice of
law. The qualities of personal integrity and responsibility essential in
the profession are best fostered not by exhortation but by actual exercise
and experience. In the belief that the most effective way to develop
maturity and responsibility among the students is to vest responsibility
in the students themselves, the Law School has conferred a large
measure of authority upon the students' professional organization, the
Junior Bar Association.
All students are members of the Association and through it work out
the problems of student government and School activities. Its declared
objects are to encourage and promote the highest standards of integrity
and industry to the end that its members may be properly equipped to
enter the profession of the law. The officers and Board of Governors of
the Association are elected by the students themselves.
HONOR CODE
An important product of the Law School's philosophy of student responsibility is the Honor Code and the broad authority
granted to the students, through the Junior Bar Association, with respect
to it5 enforcement and implementation. The basic tenet of the Honor
Code is that the law student, like the lawyer, should be subject to unyielding standards of honorable conduct. In reliance upon the students'
collective sense of responsibility, Law School examinations are unmonitored and unsupervised by Faculty, staff, or proctors. The Honor Code
imposes a strict obligation upon each student to report any apparent
infractions to the students constituting the Board of Governors of the
Association. After a full hearing, the Board has the duty to make findings
and to recommend appropriate disciplinary action to the Faculty.
The Code covers not only the administration of examinations, but
also the submission of written papers and the conduct of a student generally in his law study and relations with the School. The student body
through its elected representatives in the Junior Bar Association further
has the authority to prescribe and enforce rules of conduct in and about
the Law School and to enforce the regulations governing the use of the
library. The intent is that habits of professional self-discipline should
be developed in the student, rather than imposed upon him by outward
authority.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
The student body bears important responsibilities as well in the supplemental .educational programs of the School.
The Junior Bar Association traditionally sponsors a series of frequent
lectures, bringing outstanding lawyers, judges, and political figures to
53

�(Above) Working cooperatively in student activ ities , prospective
lawyers become acquainted with the collective concerns of the
profession. (Right) The annual Faculty-Law Review softball game
reveals the teacher in a different guise .

the Law School to address the students on subjects of general interest.
Informal receptions, known as coffee hours, are held frequently in Lowden Hall to afford the student opportunities for social contact and casual
conversation with members of the Faculty and distinguished visitors to
the School.
A wide variety of activities is carried on under student responsibility,
through the Junior Bar Association to serve the needs and interests of
fellow students. The Association participates in an orientation program
for new students, assists them with registration, and arranges for a reception and small advisory meetings, all designed to welcome the beginner
and to ease the educational transition.
The Association operates an exchange for the purchase and sale of
used casebooks and course materials, supplementing the facilities of the
University Bookstore in Abbott Hall and helping students who must
economize.
In recognition of the Law School's place in the legal profession at large,
the Northwestern Junior Bar Association is affiliated with the American
Law Student Association, the national organization of students in training for the law, sponsored by the American Bar Association.
In sum, the varied range of opportunities afforded to Law School
students for service to their fellows, to the School, and to the profession
provides valuable training in the exercise of those responsibilities that
distinguish the lawyer's calling as a profession.
54

�RECREATION AND SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
The law student soon learns the truth of the old saying that "the law
is a jealous mistress." He will not be able to indulge extensively in
amusements or spend much time in social events. Nevertheless, no man
or woman can accomplish a maximum of work without a reasonable
amount of recreation.
Organized social activities at the Law School are sponsored by the
Junior Bar Association and by the several legal fraternities. In addition
to the coffee hours, the Association holds a dance for all students once
each semester.
Chapters of three national legal fraternities-Phi Alpha Delta, Phi
D~lta Phi, and Tau Epsilon Rho-and one legal sorority-Kappa Beta Pi
..::_have been established at the Law School. Members do not live or eat
together and lines are not sharply drawn. The fraternities do, however,
arrange for a number of occasions which have professional as well as
recreational value. They hold luncheons during the course of the year
with addresses by nationally and locally prominent lawyers, judges, and
public officials. And they sponsor dances and informal parties. None of
these groups follows any discriminatory membership policy.
A program of intramural athletics involving the legal fraternities and
other groups on the campus offers participation in organized sports, and
nearby beaches, golf courses, and other facilities are available for individual recreation. Tickets are offered at reduced rates for the University's intercollegiate athletic programs on the undergraduate campus in
Evanston.
Many opportunities for entertainment and cultural pursuits afforded
in a city such as Chicago are close at hand.

STUDENT WIVES
A useful auxiliary of the Junior Bar Association is the organization
of the wives of Law School students. A substantial minority of the student body is married.
At the social gatherings of the Law \,Vives, the student's wife can visit
with Faculty wives, discuss m atters of common interest, and spend a
pleasant evening during her husband's long hours in the library. To help
her to understand the work that demands so much of her husband's time
and a ttention, the law wife may enjoy an informal talk by one of the
Faculty members on the vicissitudes of law study or a legal problem of
general interest. Occasionally professors have conducted abbreviated
versions of their Law School courses for the student wives to give them
a first-hand view of the educational process in which their husbands are
so deeply involved.

�STUDENT RESIDENCE
Living and working together, law students gain advantages that are
significant if not readily apparent. Casual conversation as well as earnest
discussion contributes to the development of the prospective lawyer's
powers and personality. The stimulation and discipline students give
one another have an impact that is directly evident in the classroom.
The ancient ancestors of modern law schools, the English Inns of
Court, depended solely upon the influences of students' living, eating,
and arguing informally together to produce men of professional qualification. For the student who resides in Abbott Hall, the Law School becomes the center of everyday life. The library and the classrooms are
accessible, the distractions of commuting are avoided, and the student
naturally and effortlessly concentrates his time and attention on preparing for the practice of law.
For these reasons, all law students except married students and those
whose homes are within easy commuting distance of the School are encouraged to live in Abbott Hall. It is designed to provide convenient and
attractive living quarters and to provide an atmosphere in which may be
developed all those qualities of personality which are so essential to a
lawyer, but which for the most part fall outside the sphere of formal
training.
The building, eighteen stories high, overlooks Lake Michigan on Lake
Shore Drive from Huron to Superior Street. It is constructed of Indiana
limestone and conforms in architectural style to the classroom buildings
on the campus. The first two floors and the basement are given over to
common rooms for social and recreational purposes, the upper sixteen to
private accommodations. The first floor contains general offices and a
series of shops. On the second floor is a large student lounge, a fountaingrill, and two large dining rooms which offer cafeteria service. In addition there is a lounge and common living room on each of the upper
floors. Athletic facilities for bowling, squash, and ping-pong are available
in the basement.
Floors are reserved for the students of the School of Law. There i~
also space reserved for women law students. Double study-bedrooms are
available. Rooms are equipped with desks of modern design, dressers,
and beds with inner-spring mattresses. All rooms are provided with
chairs, draperies, and lamps. Each room has a double closet. (Trunks are
stored in the baggage room in the basement.) Bed linens and blankets are
included in the furnishings, and five and one-half day maid service is
given.
The cost of room and board in Abbott Hall is reasonable and is below
the rates charged for other desirable accommodations in the same part of
58

�the city. The location of rooms is indicated by the floor plan which
appears on the bottom of this page of this bulletin.
The attractive residents' dining hall on the second floor serves excellent food and is operated on a daily cash basis. A large selection of foods
is offered at moderate prices, three meals a day averaging from $2.75
to $3.50.
The average room rate for the academic year is $365.00 for each occupant. Before a room is occupied, a contract for the academic year is
signed by the applicant.
The Division of Student Finance issues and makes all adjustments on
the residence bills for Abbott Hall. Rental bills are issued for payments
on October 1, January I, and April 1 during the academic year. Bills
are due upon presentation and are payable at the Cashier's Office in
Abbott Hall.
Applications, together with a $50.00 room deposit, should be filed as
early as possible. For room applications, address the Manager, Abbott
Hall, 710 North Lake Shore Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60611.
Abbott Hall also has a limited number of apartments for married
students which are completely furnished. Apartment rentals average
$130.00 a month, including utilities. There is a variety of other apartments in the vicinity of the Law School within easy commuting distance.

STUDENT HEALTH SERVICE
Through the Student Health Service of the University, students of the
Law School are furnished medical care and treatment. The facilities of
the several hospitals associated with the University and situated on the
campus are available for confinement, and out-patient care and consultation are provided in the Medical School.
Students are enrolled with the Service at the time of registration, and
at that time complete the necessary forms, appear for a conference, and
receive detailed information about the plan. For a more complete description, the Student Health Serv ice Information Bulletin is available
upon request.

THE
ACADEMIC
PROGRAM
The deepest traditions of the Law School are rooted in scholarship
and educational excellence. For more than a century, the Law
School has been devoted to improvement and innovation in legal education. Its graduates and Faculty have numbered amo ng the great teachers
and scholars of their times, and, as deans and faculty members in other
centers of legal learning, have shared and extended this dedication. The
academic program of the School today reflects and preserves the strong
tradition.

ADMISSION
Since its early years, the Law School has followed a policy of selective
admission to preserve its character as a cohesive academic community of
modest size and to assure continued educational standards of the highest
order. In consequence, the School is unable to accept many applicants
who are capable of successfully completi ng legal studies and qualifying
for the practice of law.
Applicants are selected for admission upon the basis of demonstrated
scholarship, intellectual capacity, and qualities of character requisite to
60

�the profession. The School endeavors to admit only those applicants
whose records indicate that they will successfully complete the course of
study.
Application forms and information concerning admission requirements may be obtained by writing to the Office of Admissions, Northwestern University School of Law, 357 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago,
Illinois 60611.
Students beginning the study of law enter the School at the opening of
the first semester in September.
Before enrollment, the student mu st have obtained a Bachelor's degree
from an approved college or university.
The application form must be supplemented by a transcript from
each college or university attended. Except in unusual cases, transcripts
should not be supplied until they include a record of three full academic
years. If the application is approved, the applicant will be asked to
supply a final transcript certifying the award of a Bachelor's degree,
unless the transcripts originally submitted contain that certification.
The application must also be supported by a report of the applicant's
score on the Law School Admission Test. This Law School joined with
several other schools in sponsoring the development of this test, which
is designed to measure the student's general aptitude for the study
of law. Information on how to arrange to take the test, administered
by the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey, will be supplied with the admission forms. The test may be taken either before or
after the forms are filed, although an applicant for admission in September should ordinarily plan to register for either the test given in the fall
or the test given in the winter of the preceding academic year. The Educational Testing Service should be requested to report the applicant's
score directly to the School of Law.
An applicant is also asked to submit recommendations, on forms furnished by the School, from two college or university instructors. An
applicant need not appear for a personal interview unless requested by
the Committee on Admissions. Prospective students are invited and
encouraged, however, to visit the School.
The completed application form may be submitted at any time during
the year preceding the expected date of entrance. Early application is
advisable. It is not necessary to wait until the transcripts, test score, and
recommendations can be supplied before filing the application. The
application fee is $10.00.
Applications are considered and acted upon as soon as the supporting
information has been received. Determinations are made upon a balanced evaluation of the applicant's college record and the Law School
Admission Test score, supplemented by the required recommendations
61

�and other information bearing on his capacity and qualification for law
study. Each applicant is considered carefully and individually. The trend
of undergraduate achievement, performance in particular fields and
courses, and the demands and influence of other activities and personal
circumstances are weighed and taken into account. Every doubtful application is thoroughly discussed and examined by a comm ittee of Faculty
members, which may seek further information from the applicant, his
college or professors, or request the student to appear for an interview
to assist the committee in its deliberations.
An applicant who is accepted for admission is required to make a
deposit of $50.00 by April 1 of the year of entrance or within thirty
days after notice of acceptance, whichever is later. Upon registration,
the deposit is applied toward the payment of tuition.
No applicant previously enrolled in another law school will be admitted either as a beginning student or as a transfer student if he is
ineligible to continue study at that school.
TRANSFER
The admission of students previously enrolled in other law schools
who wish to become candidates for the degree of Juris Doctor depends
upon the applicant's achievements in law study as well as upon the factors
which control the admission of beginning students. Generally stated, the
standard requires a highly creditable law school record.
Transfer applicants should submit the application form with the
$10.00 application fee, transcripts from each college and university
attended, including the law school from which transfer is contemplated,
and two recommendations from former instructors, at least one a law
school instructor. A statement of class standing also should be submitted.
Transfer applicants are not required to take the Law School Admission
Test unless requested. If an applicant already has taken the test, however, a score report must be furnished to complete the application.
The granting of credit for courses completed in other schools and the
allowance of advanced standing rest within the discretion of the Dean of
the School. In no event will transfer credit be given for law school work
in schools which are not members of the Association of American Law
Schools or for courses in which the student received a grade below C or
its equivalent.
SUMMER SESSION
A student enrolled in another law school may be admitted for the
Summer Session upon a certificate of good standing from the school in
which he is permanently enrolled.

PRE-LEGAL STUDY
A Bachelor's degree in arts and science is required for adm ission to the
Law School, but no specific fields of major study or particular courses are
prescribed. The purpose of the requirement is to provide the prospective
lawyer with a sound liberal education for the discharge of his broader
professional responsibilities as well as to provide a foundation for law
school training. Since the reach of the law's concerns may be as wide as
the range of human behavior, no particular course of undergraduate
study confers a special advantage in the law.
College curricula vary, the content of courses bearing the same title
may be dissimilar, and teaching attitudes and emphases differ. Accordingly suggestions must be general. Courses in such fields as history, economics, anthropology, sociology, government, and political science may
help the student to understand the structure of society and the problems
o[ social ordering with which the law is concerned. Studies in philosophy
and literature may impart a familiarity with the traditions of thought
that have influenced legal developments. The examination of human
behavior in courses in psychology and its analysis through statistical
method may also prove worthwhile.
In developing the capacities and skills of the lawyer, the college student should pursue studies that will enhance his power to express himself with clarity and force. English, foreign language courses, and public
speaking can be recommended, but the capacities may be developed as
well in other courses in which written work of high quality is demanded.
For the systematic ordering of abstractions and ideas, the physical, nat63

�ural, and mathematical sciences, in addition to logic, may be suggested.
Apart from subject matter, the student preparing for the study of law
should take courses of sufficient difficulty to try his capacities to the
utmost to assist in the development of the rigorous intellectual discipline
essential to success in law school. He would be well advised, in addition,
to pursue his studies far enough in some definite field to attain a mastery
of the subject, to gain the experience of deep and thorough understanding. The typical student is more likely to extend himself and thereby to
increase his capacities for law study if he follows the bent of his own
interests and tastes.
It is perhaps advisable, however, for the prospective law student to
avoid undergraduate courses in law, designed for men preparing for
other callings and duplicating law school work. Ordinarily, the time and
effort will be better spent in studies in other fields. It should be noted
that a student will be required to take a one-hour course in accounting
in the second year of Law School unless he has received college credit for
three semester-hours, or its equivalent, in the field.
In general, the undergraduate college student is best advised not to try
to prepare particularly and narrowly for his law school studies, but to
prepare for his life as a lawyer by obtaining the best available general
education. He will find that what is best for law school is also the best
in liberal education-a course of study that develops in the student the
capacity to understand, to think for himself, and to express himself
effectively.

TUITION, FEES, AND EXPENSES
The cost of a year of law study varies with the needs, habits, and circumstances of the student. As a base from which individual estimates may be drawn,
the sum of 2900 approximates the total expense for the academic year of the
average unmarried student re&amp;iding in Abbott Hall, the Law School dormitory.
Of this total, slightly more than .$ 1600 is required for tuition , fees, book , and
supplies. The remainder represents the typical expenditure for room, board,
and personal needs.

TUITION
The student's total investment in his legal education, while large in absolute
terms, is insubstantial in comparison with its total returns in the decades of his
professional life. Short-term economies often prove wasteful in the long run.
In the interests of its students, the Law School has made every effort to hold
down the costs, but in the same interests it has refused to sacrifice any of the
elements of a legal education of the highest quality. The cost of each student's
education is only partly covered by his tuition payments. A substantial portion
is paid from income from endowments and from annual gifts of alumni and
friends of Northwestern.

FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS
PAYMENT OF TUITION AND FEES
Tuition and fees are paid by semesters, rather than by the full academic year.
Payments are clue in the first few weeks after the commencement of the term
upon the elate specified in the statement sent to each student after registration.
The Cashier's Office, conveniently located on the first floor of Abbott Hall,
receives these payments.
The Division of Student Finance, on the first floor of Abbott Hall, issues
the statement's and makes all adjustments.

WITHDRAWAL AND REFUNDS
Official withdrawal forms are available at the General Office of the School of
Law. Students who withdraw before the end of the first one-eighth of the term
are held for no tuition beyond the amount of the advanced deposit required to
be paid by entering students. Students who withdraw after the first one-eighth
of the term and before the encl of one-fourth of the term are held for one-fourth
of the tuition for the term. Students who withdraw after the first one-fourth of
the term and before the middle of the term are held for one-half of the tuition
for the term. Students who withdraw after the middle of the term are held for
full tuition. Regardless of the time of withdrawal, students are held for all
fees, except that those who withdraw before the end of the first one-eighth of
the term are not held for the student health fee. In the case of exclusion for
nonpayment of tuition , the same charges are made in accordance with the above
schedule. In all cases, either the date on which the student withdrew from classes
and filed a written withdrawal notice with the Registrar of the Law School or
the date of formal exclusion is used in figuring any adjustment on tuition.

• In many courses it is necessary to supply mimeographed materials. At the beginning of each
term a charge is made against each student for the mimeographed materials required in his courses
on the basis of the cost of the supplies and labor required in their preparation. No charge is
made for the time of the instructor and his secretarial ass istants spent in research, editing, and
cutting the stencils for the materials.

66

�Generous physical facilities and a student body of limited size produce an
atmosphere conducive to effective study.

REBATES TO FACULTY, STAFF AND INSTRUCTORS
Undergraduate
and graduate students who meet the following regulations are eligible to apply
for rebates: (a) full-time Faculty and staff members listed on the regular twelvemonth payroll of the University; (b) dependent sons and daughters of such
persons; (c) full-time employees of affiliated institutions.
A full-time faculty or staff member will be granted a rebate of fifty percent of
his tuition charges with a maximum rebate each term of twenty-five percent of
the established full-time tuition rate. This rebate limitation recognizes that the
full-time Faculty member or staff employee cannot carry, with justice to his work,
more than half of the academic program.
Application blanks for these rebates are available at the Student Finance
Office, Abbott Hall and must be filed with that office before registration each
term.
Students should call for the rebate checks at the Division of Student Finance,
Abbott Hall, one day before their tuition bills become due. Rebate checks are
applicable on tuition charges only and cannot be accepted in payment of
other fees.
STUDENT DEPOSIT ACCOUNT
The University maintains a student deposit account at the Cashier's Office, Abbott Hall, as an accommodation to students. Students may write only counter checks against their deposits, payable
to themselves. There is no charge for this service, and no interest is paid on
deposits.

�SCHOLARSHIPS, GRANTS, AND
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
If a student has the ability and motivation necessary for the study of
law, the School is committed to providing all possible assistance so
that he can reach his educational goals. Through scholarships, loans, and
a limited amount of part-time work, many students are able to complete
their law studies at Northwestern with a minimum of initial savings or
outside financial aid.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND GRANTS
Approximately one-third of the School's entering students receive
financial assistance in the form of scholarships or loans. The amounts
of the awards vary from a portion of tuition to full tuition plus a stipend
for subsistence. Ordinarily, an award of financial assistance to a first-year
student is renewed for his second and third years of law study provided
he maintains a creditable class standing and his financial situation remains unchanged.
All or part of an award may be made subject to an obligation of
repayment after graduation. In these cases, repayment is ordinarily
made on an installment basis during the first few years following graduation. Interest does not accrue until the end of the first year after
graduation, and thereafter the rate is low.
Awards of financial assistance are made upon the basis of academic
promise and need. Each application is individually considered by a committee of Faculty members and each award is determined by an individual
appraisal of the student's qualifications for law study and monetary
needs. For students of exceptional ability who have adequate resources
for law study, a limited number of honorary scholarships are awarded
annually in recognition of pre-legal achievement. These special scholarships, described below, carry only a nominal financial award, so that
available funds may be devoted to the assistance of students who otherwise would be unable to study law.
Application forms for financial assistance may be obtained by writing
to the Office of Admissions of the Law School. Special application forms
are required for the Clarion DeWitt Hardy Scholarships, described below.
An application for financial assistance need not accompany the application for admission, but should be submitted early to assure consideration before funds are committed.
The available funds are:

Clarion DeWitt Hardy Scholarships in Law. Scholarships providing
for tuition and for an additional amount of up to $1,000 for expenses,
depending upon the needs of the student, are available for several stu88

�dents in each entering class. The amoun t is sufficient, with average
summer earnings, to enable the student to meet all typical costs of an
academic year. The scholarships are renewed each year for scholars who
maintain a good record and meet the other standards of the program.
The scholarships are in honor of the late Professor Clarion DeWitt Hardy
of the School of Speech and were established by Owen L. Coon, an
alumnus who died in 1948, in memory of the man "who contributed
most" to his education. The purpose of the scholarships is to assist able
students whose desire to enter the legal profession includes the objective
of devoting a part of their lives to public service. Requirements, in addition to expressed interest in public service, are high scholastic attainment,
forensic and writing ability, and leadership qualities. Funds are provided by the Owen L. Coon Foundation, and the Hardy Scholarship
Committee of the Faculty administers the program.

Russell Sage Foundation Scholarships. Several scholarships in the
amount of $2,700 are available under a 1963 grant to the Law School
and the Graduate School of the University by the Russell Sage Foundation. The general purpose of the grant is to foster a fuller appreciation

LOANS
Among the sources of Law School loan funds are the Charles Shapiro
and Morris Robert Shapiro Loan Fund, the Raoul Berger Law Loan
Fund, the Mrs. J. N. Raymol!ld Law School Fund, the Edward P.
Summbers Law Loan Fund, and the Law School Foundation Loan
Funds.
In January, 1965, the American Bar Association and the American
Law Student Association made appropriations to the American Bar
Association Fund for Legal Education in order to establish a loan program for assistance to law students at schools approved by the American
Bar Association. Inquiries concerning the terms and conditions of these
loans should be directed to the Office of Admissions.
In addition, Phi Alpha Delta Law Fraternity has inaugurated a
program of offering loans from its Endowment Fund to worthy student
members of the fraternity who need such aid to complete their law school
education. The maximum amount of such loans is $500.

EXAMINATIONS AND GRADES
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. In accordance
with the prevailing practice in legal education, a single final examination is usually given, without periodic or mid-term tests, to permit comprehensive treatment of the subject matter and to measure the student's
capacity to work with and master a substantial body of material. Although examinations provide the most important source for determining
the student's relative achievement, consideration may also be given to
the written work done in connection with a course and to the preparation
of assignments for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion. In
seminar courses, no examinations are ordinarily given. Grades are based
upon the products of individual research and participation in the seminar discussions.
In addition, beginning in 1965, a comprehensive examination will be
required each year of all students who entered the Law School in September, 1963, or thereafter, and who are scheduled to be graduated in
February, June, or August of the year following the examination. The
73

�examination, which will be administered in either September or October
each year, will cover all required courses. No credit hours toward graduation will be given for the taking of the examination. However, each
student's grade on the examination will receive a weight of four hours
in all subsequent computations of his grade average.
Students who are eligible but who, for good reason, are unable to
take an examination may, with the permission of the Dean, take the next
regularly scheduled examination in the course, take the examination
late, or, in unusual cases, be given a special examination.
The grading system is numerical. A grade of 85 or above represents
work of the highest distinction. Grades of 68 and above indicate various
degrees of satisfactory work. Credit is given for courses in which the
student receives a grade from 60 through 67, but such grades indicate
unsatisfactory work. No credit is given for a course in which a grade of
less than 60 is received.
A student who, at the end of any term after his first term in School,
has failed to maintain an average of 68 to that date is ineligible for
further registration in the School. A student who fails to attain an
average grade of 68 over his entire course is ineligible for a degree.
Grades received at other schools are not considered in determining the
average grade.
At the option of the instructor, grades in courses and seminars in
wh ich no examination is given may be recorded simply as P (pass) or
F (fai lure).

HONORS AND PRIZES
Since its beginnings, the Law School has been dedicated to the encouragement and recognition of legal scholarship. In 1907, the Order of
the Coif was founded at Northwestern, and it has since become the recognized national honor society in legal education with chapters, numbering more than 45, established in most of the leading law schools.
The tradition of original and enduring scholarship and the devotion
to excellence manifested in the founding of the Order of the Coif permeate the activities of the School. Exemplifying the Law School's emphasis
on scholarship are the many honors and awards recognizing superior
accomplishment.
THE ORDER OF THE COIF, NORTHWESTERN CHAPTER
The Northwestern chapter of the Order of the Coif annually elects from
the senior class a number of persons, not exceeding ten percent of the
class, who on the basis of scholarship and character are deemed worthy

74

�instruction program of the School that satisfactory participation in that
work is normally a requisite for election to the Order of the Coif.

DEGREES
Degrees will be conferred by the Trustees of the University upon students who are recommended by the Faculty of the School of Law. Before
77

�a student is recommended for a c'.iegree, he must have satisfied the Faculty
as to his character, and he must have complied with the requirements for
the ctegree for which he is a candidate.
The first degree in law awarded by the University is the Juris Doctor (J.D.). It is conferred upon students who have satisfactorily completed courses carrying ninety semester-hours of credit in the School of
Law, including the required courses described on pages 28-33. The work
must be pursued during a residence period of three academic years or
the equivalent. The last year must be in residence at Northwestern
University School of Law, and in the case of students transferring from
another law school, a minimum of thirty semester-hours of credit must
be earned in this School.
When the Faculty believes that the candidate's record of scholarship
merits special recognition, the degree may be awarded cum laude, magna
cum laude, or summa cum laude.
Degrees conferred upon students who have already obtained their
first degrees in law are described in the information concerning Graduate
Study, below.

GRADUATE STUDY IN LAW
The graduate program of the Law School has several objectives. One
purpose is to offer to recent law graduates who have demonstrated
superior proficiency in the study of law, as well as to active practitioners,
an opportunity not only to broaden their legal knowledge but also to
study and engage in research in particular fields of interest. The School
also desires to make its faci lities available to law teachers and prospective law teachers interested in advanced study and original research and
writing under Faculty guidance. In addition, the program is intended to
provide outstanding graduates of foreign law schools with an opportunity to expand their knowledge of American legal processes and to
engage in comparative legal research.
Inquiries concerning graduate study should be addressed to the Office
of Admissions of the Law School. No application fee is required of
foreign applicants for admission to graduate study.

ADMISSION TO GRADUATE STUDY AND TO CANDIDACY
FOR ADVANCED DEGREES
The admission of students who have been awarded a first degree in
law to graduate study or to candidacy for the degree of Master of Laws or
Doctor of Juridical Science are matters which rest within the discretion of
the Graduate Committee.
78

�Although foreign graduate students whose native language is not
English are eligible for admission as graduate students, they normally
are not admitted as candidates for a degree until they h ave completed
one semester's work as graduate students and have demonstrated during
Lhat time their capacity to complete successfully the degree requirements.
Experience indicates that foreign students whose native language is
not English have great difficulty in meeting the requirements unless they
have a good command of written and spoken English.
DEGREES
Two graduate degrees are granted: the degree of Master of Laws
(LL.M.) and the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science (S.J.D.).

Master of Laws (LL.M.). The degree of Master of Laws will be conferred upon students who have obtained a first degree in law from this
University or another having equivalent requirements; in unusual cases,
this requirement may be waived by a vote of the Faculty. Also such students must fulfill the following requirements:
1. The completion of one academic year of residence in this School,
during which time credit must be obtained for not less than ten semesterhours in courses or seminars not previously counted toward the first
degree in law. During their year of residence, graduate students will be
required to maintain a superior scholarship record. Each graduate student's course program is individually planned in light of the student's
choice of a thesis topic. Also, students who have not previously taken
Jurisprudence and Comparative Law will be required to enroll in these
seminars. To the extent necessary to establish a background for their
research, the Graduate Committee may, in its discretion, require graduate students to take course and seminar work in addition to the minimum prescribed above.
2. The completion of a thorough st udy of some approved legal topic
and the presentation of a paper embodying its results. The candidate's
thesis must be of such character as to be suitable for publication in the
Northwestern University Law Review or the journal of Criminal Law,
Criminology and Police Science.
3. The passi ng of an examination to be prescribed by the Faculty.

Doctor of Juridical Science (S.].D.). The degree of Doctor of Juridical Science will be conferred upon students who have obtained the
degree of Juris Doctor from this or some other university or college having equivalent requirements for that degree or have obtained the degree
of Bachelor of Laws from another u niversity or college whose requirements for that degree are equivalen t to those prescribed by this School
79

�for the degree of Juris Doctor, and who have fulfilled the following
requirements:
I. The completion of one academic year of residence in this School.
The time required for the completion of a candidate's work, however,
will normally run far beyond the period of residence required.
2. The completion of a study to be approved by the Faculty or its
designated committee. This study shall be one involving original research
and must be completed in such manner, both as to subject matter and
literary form, as to be, in the opinion of the Faculty, a significant and
scholarly contribution to legal science.
3. The completion of such other work, if any, as may be directed by
the Dean in the particular case.
4. The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the Faculty.
It is the policy of the Faculty to restrict this degree to candidates who
have had substantial experience either in practicing or teaching law and
who, through their published writings, have evidenced their capacity for
advanced graduate work.
Candidates for this degree are afforded every facility for both library
and field research, and at some time during their residence they are given
the opportunity to instruct students along the line of their research. They
are given the rank of graduate fellow and are accorded many of the
privileges of members of the Faculty.

TUITION, FEES, AND EXPENSES
Full information concerning tuition and fees for graduate study
appears on page 65 of the bulletin.
The expenses of an unmarried student for the academic year, including books, board and room, and incidentals (but excluding tuition and
fees) should approximate $1,400 to $1,500.
Accommodations for both married and unmarried graduate students
are available on the University's Chicago campus.
The Law School has no funds available for travel expenses of graduate students. It is necessary for those accepted for graduate study to
make their own arrangements through the Fulbright program or otherwise.

GRADUATE FELLOWSHIPS
FELLOWSHIPS IN INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES
In 1957 the Ford Foundation made a grant to the Law School for
expansion of its program in International Legal Studies. The sum of
$7,000 a year is specifically made available for graduate fellowships for
foreign lawyers and students. Applicants interested in pursuing inter-

The Law School has long been interested in international law and
related subjects. The late Dean Wigmore inaugurated this interest and
laid the foundation for a substantial collection of international and
foreign law materials available in the Law Library. For more than IO
years the School has offered a basic introductory course in International
Law. The school has also offered seminars in International Organization,
Comparative Law, Admiralty, and Civil Liberties on a comparative basis.
In furtherance of the grant, the School has added a course in Family Law
with emphasis on comparative materials, a seminar in International Business Transactions, and a seminar on European Economic Organizations.
The James Nelson Raymond Fellowship is awarded on a competitive
basis to applicants, domestic or foreign, interested in any field of legal
study, including International Legal Studies.
The amount of each fellowship is $3,500. From that amount, tuition
and fees are deducted. The amount of the fellowship award, after these
deductions, is paid in ten installments, the first being available on
September 15.
In addition, since 1961, the General Electric Foundation has made
an annual grant of $5,000 for research in the field of problems of international and foreign antitrust law.

POLICE LEGAL ADVISOR FELLOWSHIPS
Through the generosity of the Ford Foundation, several fellowships
are available each year for recent Law School graduates with an interest
in careers as Police Legal Advisors. The objective of this program is to
train young lawyers for positions which may be described generally as
"house counsel" to metropolitan police departments or to groups of
police departments in rural areas.
The period of training under a fellowship grant is two years. The
first year is spent in residence at the Law School. During the second
year, the student will actually serve as legal advisor to a police department. At the end of that period, participants in the Program are eligible for the Master of Laws degree.
For young lawyers with one or more years of experience in the practice of law, the yearly stipend ranges between $6,500 and $8,500. Out
of the stipend for the first year, there is a ded uction of approximately
$ 1,600 for tuition and fees. During the second year a further deduction
of $500 is made. Each year's stipend is considered tax exempt.
Similar fellowships are available to recent Law School graduates with
no experience as practitioners. The stipend for them is $4,200 for the
first year and $6,500 for the second year, with deductions and tax
exemptions as described above.

�Fellowship recipients may begin their studies either in the first
semester (September) of each school year or in the second semester
(February).

GENERAL INFORMATION CONCERNING
GRADUATE FELLOWSHIPS
Additional information concerning the fellowships described above,
including application requirements, filing deadlines, and award dates,
may be obtained by writing to the Office of Admissions of the Law School.
Normally, fellowships are not awarded to foreign students who already
have spent a year in this country under another scholarship grant. Also,
fellowships are granted for one year only.
None of the graduate fellowships described above contains provisions
for travel expenses. Students must make their own travel arrangements.
Successful fellowship applicants should also bring sufficient funds for
personal expenses from the time of arrival until September 15.

PLACEMENT
At graduation the Northwestern law student joins the century-long
procession of Law School alumni. A wide range of choice is open. To
provide its graduates with advice, guidance, and a broad selection of
opportunities for their legal careers, the Law School maintains a Placement Office under the direction of Assistant Dean Francis 0. Spalding.
Through general announcements to the profession and particular
inquiries, the Placement Office gathers information on professional opportunities and openings. The Placement Office compiles a complete listing of these opportunities, maintains files for the use of prospective
graduates, and posts announcements of new openings to keep the students' information current.
It has been repeated in each generation that the bar is overcrowded.
But the demand for well-trained able young lawyers has not diminished,
and the rising level of starting salaries gives evidence of the professional
need. Each year the Placement Office receives inquiries and requests
from law firms, corporations, and government agencies for many times the
number of available graduates.
Naturally most of the Law School's alumni are engaged in the private
practice of law. Some have chosen to remain in Chicago, while others
have settled in cities and towns throughout the United States. In large
firms and in individual practice, Northwestern graduates rank as leaders
of the bar in nearly every state in the nation and in several foreign coun-

�tries. In service to their profession as well as their clients, they have occupied the presidencies of the American, state, and local bar associations.

Not all alumni elect the rewards of private practice. Furthering a
strong tradition of public service, a number of men in each graduating
class accept positions with government, at the national, state, or local
level. Working with prosecuting and investigating agencies, on government boards and commissions, and on the staffs of government depart·
ments, these men are often vested with major responsibilities and acquire
wide experience early in their professional lives. After a period of
government service, many enter private practice, where their experience
in government is of great value. Others make public service a career and
attain high public office, elective or appointive.
The roster of Law School alumni includes governors and United
States Senators, cabinet members, department heads, and diplomats;
mayors, attorneys-general, and prosecutors; legislators and government
advisors.
The strength of the Northwestern tradition of public service is illustrated by a striking statistic: in more than half the Presidential campaigns of the past seventy years a Law School alumnus has been either
the candidate or a strong contender for the nomination of one of the
two major parties.
In the judiciary Iorthwestern men have served with distinction on
the benches of the highest courts, both federal and state. For the top•
ranking students there are opportunities for clerkships with justices and
judges of the federal and state courts.
Openings in the field of law teaching are not numerous, and the
financial rewards are not great. Through the years, Northwestern, for
its size, has contributed more than its share of the nation's law teachers.
Its graduates have joined the faculties of nearly all the major law schools
in the United States, and many Northwestern men have served as deans,
university presidents, and leaders in other branches of education.
An expanding field of opportunity, beyond the limits of traditional
practice, is offered the Law School graduate interested in business, industry, and finance. In increasing recognition of the values of legal training,
corporations, banks, and companies in a wide range of enterprise have
come to seek Law School graduates not only for their legal staffs but for
executive positions as well. Attractive starting salaries and opportunities
for advancement in management have combined to draw a substantial
number of graduates of the Law School. Alumni have risen to principal
executive posts in many of the nation's largest corporations in such fields
as transportation, oil, retailing, insurance, finance, public utilities, and
manufacturing.

�From the array of professional opportunities open to him, the graduating student must choose for himself. It is the function of the Law
School Placement Office to aid him in exploring the possibilities and to
urange the ntcessary contacts.
Each year a large number of law firms from major cities throughout
the United States send partners to the Law School to interview advanced
students. Government agencies, corporations, and banks also send representatives to the School for interviews. In addition to the hundreds of
personal interviews conducted annually at the Law School, the Placement
Office arranges for interviews of students in large numbers at law offices,
government agencies, and corporate headquarters.
A biographical summary is prepared and duplicated for each prospective graduate seeking a position, and appropriate letters of introduction
and recommendation are furnished.
Beyond its service to current graduates, the Law School Placement
Office also handles the temporary placement of students with law firms
and government agencies for summer vacation periods, in Chicago and
elsewhere, typically between the student's second and third years, and
the placement of alumni of earlier years who are returning from mi1'itary
service or are seeking a change of position.

THE LAW ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
Over the years the L:1.w School has enjoyed the loyal support of its
alumni. Commemorating the Law School's centennial, they contributed
substantially to the construction of Robert R. McCormick Hall and the
Owen L. Coon Library, and their generous annual gifts to the Law
Alumni Fund provide scholarships and significant support for the general
program of the School.
Many alumni assist directly in the educational program. A number
serve as judges in the Moot Court programs. In addition, alumni are
frequently asked to draw upon their practical experience and special
knowledge in particular fields of law by participating in course work
or addressing student groups. They render invaluable assistance in connection with the placement program.
Each year alumni reunions are held during the meetings of the American Bar Association and various state bar associations. In addition, an
alumni dinner is held each spring in Chicago with a prominent guest
speaker. Also, a faculty-alumni luncheon is held in Chicago each fall.
Offi·cers and-directors of the Law Alumni Association for the academic
year 1964-65 were:

�"Where there is arbitrary power, there
is no occasion to study the law; when
the law begins to reign, its teachers
and practicers come forth ..."

-David Dudley Field, at the
dedication of the Law School,
September 21, 1859.

LAW

STUDY

AT

NORTHWESTERN
For more than a century the School of Law has been dedicated to
the education of men for all branches of endeavor in the law under
the highest standards of academic and professional excellence. This
dedication marks the character of the Law School today.
Professional training of the highest order and the development of
each student's unique capabilities are fostered by a close working relationship between student and teacher. Early in its history, the Law School
adopted a policy of limited enrollment to promote educational quality.
Today Northwestern remains a law school of medium size, small in
comparison with others of national standing. The result is that each
student is the beneficiary of a significant share of the resources of the
School.
In furtherance of its objectives of excellence, the Law School maintains a policy of selective admission to assure that each student is capable,
first, of benefiting from challenging instruction and, second, of pursuing
intellectual goals with self-discipline and initiative. Those chosen are
students of independent and seeking mind, who need not be led but
who, on the contrary, can contribute to the education of their fellows
in cooperative endeavor. Instruction is conducted by a faculty who
devote their fu ll energies to legal education.
The facilities of the School have been designed in the belief that
balanced preparation for the profession cannot be confined to the
classroom. The Law School, with its comprehensive library arranged
for effective scholarship and its ample provision for informal conference
JO

�and discussion, constitutes a self-sufficient center for legal learning. The
continuous exchange of thought and opinion in a cohesive student body
of outstanding men and women in close contact with a distinguished
faculty recalls the classic concept of a university as an independent
community of scholars.
The first law school in its state and region and among the oldest
in the nation, Northwestern enjoys a rich heritage.
The spirit of the profession is respected and preserved in the architecture and atmosphere of its buildings and in the traditions of student
life. At the same time, the School's program of instruction is designed
to prepare students for the broad challenge of the future. Long identified with forward-looking movements in legal education, the Law School
today offers a curriculum arranged to foster an understanding of the
formative principles that guide growth and change in the law, to educa te lawyers not for the demands of the practice of the past or even of
the present, but for the years ahead in which today's students will live
out their professional lives.

In this century the law has emerged as a profession vitally integrated
with every phase of the nation's economic, social, and political development. With advanced teaching m a terials and techniques, a deep tradition of scholarship, the broad educational resources of a great University,
a nd the professional and cultural enrichment of a metropolitan center,
the Law School continues to educate its students for the broad responsibilities and demands of the legal profession and the service of its ideals.
I[

�these noble buildings, designed for
one of the noblest uses to which any
building can be put-the teaching of law."

-Sir William Searle Holdsworth,
at the dedication of the
Law School buildings, June 16, 1927.

THE
LAW
SCHOOL
Unlike the physical sciences, legal learning requires no elaborate
apparatus. The study of law is the study of ideas, and history teaches
that ideas ma y be born in the most adverse material circumstances. More
important tha n stone and mortar are the traditions and the spirit which
give life to the school and inspire its students and teachers.
For the serious student, however, a stimulating and congenial environment makes a unique contribution to the educational process. Professional training of the highest order requires more than a comprehensive
library and classrooms designed for effective teaching. There must be
places for reflection and concentration. There must be arrangements
conducive to informal intercha nge of thought and opinion between
student and student, and between student and teacher. The atmosphere
should imbue the student of law with an appreciation for the ancient
traditions of the bar and for the professional heritage he will share.

LOCATION
The Law School is situated on the shore of Lake Michigan near the
center of Chicago. To the south, along the lake front, lie Grant Park,
a series of yacht basins, recreational facilities, museums of art and
natural history, a planetarium, and an aquarium. To the north extends
the noted Gold Coast, an area of fashionable residential apartments
separated from the lake by a continuous series of parks, beaches, golf
12

�courses, and boating facilities. Near by, to the west, is one of the city's
centers of art and entertainment. A half-mile to the southwest is the
Chicago Loop, the central business and shopping area, and the legal
and financial center of the region. Here are located the buildings housing
the offices of federal , state, and municipal government. In close proximity
to the Law School, convenient for student visits and observation, are
trial and appellate courts of both the state and federal governments ,
ranging from the local small claims courts to the United States Court of
Appeals.
Situated in the stimulating intellectual clima te of the metropolitan
center, the Law School enjoys unexcelled opportunities for laboratory
study of the law in action and benefits in addition from the ready
availability of outstanding specialists in every branch of the law. Frequent lectures, specialized courses, and supplementary class participation
by leading jurists, pract itioners, and public officials enrich the basic
instruction.

PROFESSIONAL CAMPUS
The Law School constitutes part of the self-contained professional
campus of Northwestern University. Surrounding the Law School are
the separate buildings of the Graduate School of Business Administration
and the Medical and Dental Schools. Also on the campus are Thorne
Hall, an auditorium available for major convocations and ceremonies,
and Abbott Hall, the 18-floor student residence for the men and women
enrolled in these graduate schools, with dining rooms, cafeteria, fountain,
lounges, bowling alleys and other athletic facilities, and accessory shops
and services.
Living and studying in a self-sufficient graduate campus, the law
student broadens his perspective through contact with professional students in other disciplines but remains free from the distractions of
undergraduate life. Twelve miles north, on the original campus of the
University in suburban Evanston, the main body of undergraduate
students and about 1,500 graduate students are enrolled. This wooded,
lakeside campus is readily accessible to Law School students for cultural
events and intercollegiate athletics.
Physically autonomous, the Law School resembles a small college,
with the benefits of a cohesive academic community. As part of a great
University, it enjoys as well the resources and vitality of a broad range
of learning. Outstanding professors from other schools and departments
participate in Law School instruction, to make available the contributions of economics, psychiatry, sociology, political science, and a variety
of other disciplines in the understanding and solution of the problems
of human behavior which are the province of law.
13

�Bounded by the waters of Lake Michigan immediately to the east
and by the surrounding campus, the Law School stands as an academic
preserve in the heart of a metropolis, enjoying the benefits of a central
site with few of its disadvantages.

LAW SCHOOL BUILDINGS
The Law School itself consists of a complex of buildings, functionally
integrated and arranged to form a quadrangle occupying the block
between Chicago Avenue and Superior Street. The original buildings,
Levy Mayer Hall and the Elbert H. Gary Library, were completed in
1926. Robert R. McCormick Hall and the Owen L. Coon Library, also
named for alumni of the School, were completed in 1960. The four
buildings present a harmonious exterior, all constructed of limestone in
a modified Gothic design reminiscent of the historic structures of English
law. The quadrangle completely encloses the Law School garden.
Bordered by cloistered arcades, the garden, with its hedge-lined walks,
shaded corners, and stone benches, is a favored retreat for students and
faculty in spring and autumn months.
In interior design and ornament, the older buildings of the Law
School are rich in the lore of the law. Medallions, seals, and shields in
legal motifs decorate the oak-paneled walls and corridors, and stainedglass designs accent the windows, linking the student with the past of
the profession. Some 2,500 portraits, engravings, etchings, and photographs, collected by the late Dean John H. Wigmore in the United
States, England, and the Continent, are hung about the School to illustrate the men and events of the law, throughout history and throughout
the world. The atmosphere is blended in the newer buildings with the
clean lines of modern functionalism. Both libraries and Robert R.
McCormick Hall are completely air-conditioned.

CLASSROOMS
The Law School contains seven major classrooms. These generous
facilities make it possible to schedule a number of classes at the same
time, reducing the number of students in each class meeting. The classes
are divided into sections for all work in the first and second years. As
a consequence, the number of students attending a class seldom exceeds
80 and is often much smaller. Such classes, small by general law school
standards, encourage responsible participation by each student in the
probing, analytical discussion that is the mark of legal education at
Northwestern.
In each classroom the student is provided with a continuous tabledesk or with a free-standing oak desk for his course materials and notebooks. In most of the rooms the student desks are elevated in tiers and
14

�surround the instructor's desk in amphitheatre style, facilitating communications, in both directions, between student and teacher. The
three newer classrooms are equipped for the use of audio-visual aids.
Lincoln Hall, the largest classroom, was modeled after the British House
of Commons in dimensions and seati ng arrangement. It is used principally for major co-curricular lectures, public conferences, and student
assemblies.

SEMINAR ROOMS
For instruction at a more advanced and individualized level, the
Law School buildings provide six seminar rooms. Here small groups
of students, typically from 12 to 20, are seated at a single large table
with a faculty member for an informal and detailed analysis of problem
areas lying at the frontiers of legal development. In such study, the
student necessarily bears a large measure of responsibility for giving
direction and substance to the discussion.
Notable among the seminar rooms of the School is the Wigmore
Room, named for the former dean and furnished with memorabilia of
his distinguished career. Installed in a concealed portion of the room
are the Wigmore chimes, a unique musical machine that p lays "The
Counsellor's Chorus," the Law School song composed by Dean Wigmore
himself. MacChesney Hal l, in the newer building, is handsomely furnished with a table 35 feet in length and richly upholstered chairs. The

�Williams Room, renovated and refurnished in 1961, is similiarly appointed. Two other seminar rooms are situated above the library overlooking the lake, and are adjoined by roof balconies offering a welcome
respite on pleasant days.

COURTROOM
For practice and instruction in the arts of advocacy, the School has
a fully equipped modern courtroom, complete with witness stand, jury
box, counsel tables, and seating for spectators. Of striking modern design, the Getz Courtroom is used both for practice trials and for the
argument of mock appeals.

LIBRARY
The indispensable instruments of the lawyer's calling are books, and
a comprehensive and well-arranged library is essential to effective training for the profession. The library, with its associated research facilities,
is the heart of the Law School.
The Northwestern Law School library consists of two buildings, integrated physically and administered as a unit, the Elbert H. Gary Library
and the Owen L. Coon Library. In combination, the library occupies a
full side of the Law School quadrangle extending from Chicago Avenue
to Superior Street, and includes four floors of working area. The constantly growing collection contains over 200,000 volumes, is among the six
largest law school libraries in the western world, and constitutes the
largest legal collection in the Chicago area.
More important than sheer size, however, is the utility of the collection. The main reading room of the library occupies the highest floor
of the building, and is divided by shelved partitions into dozens of
secluded but well-lighted alcoves fitted with large working tables and
chairs, to provide convenient accommodations close by the books. The
arrangement is repeated on the lower floors, with the addition of a number of individual carrells for sustained and concentrated research. Included on a lower level are glass-walled typing areas, with individual
sound-proof carrells open to any student who may wish to type a research paper or to re-organize his course notes.
The library is operated under an open-stack policy, to bring readers
and books together without unnecessary formalities. The student is free
to browse and to search at will through the collection, and may call upon
either the expert full-time staff of 16 or the 18 assistants if he is in need
of guidance, aid, or suggestions. The library is open daily throughout
the year, and in the evenings as well whenever the School is in session.
To free the general collection from the heavy demands of faculty scholarship, a separate working collection is maintained for faculty use.
16

�The course of instruction has been designed to encourage the use of
these library resources, a nd to assure that each student will be capable of
independent a nd scholarly legal research. In a required course in the
first term of his legal education, the student receives individual instruction in the techniques of assembling and using the varied materials of
research in the law, from the most ancient reports to the latest modern
developments. During the remainder of his studies, he accumulates
experien ce and develops his powers of perceptive, resourceful research
through work in moot court, supplementary course studies, research in
advanced semi nars, and the preparation of articles and papers for the
School's lega l publications.
The library's collection includes substantially all the reported decisions of the courts of the Un ited States, its separate states and territories,
Great Britain and the Commonwealth, together with their statutes and
session laws, and subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, textbooks, periodicals, bibliographies- necessary to form a
complete working collection for every legal system in the English Ian-

�guage. This Anglo-American collection is supplemented by a selection
of works in the fields of history, economics, government, and the other
social and behavioral sciences. The library also receives every current
legal periodical of general interest printed in the English language.
More than one-third of the total collection is made up of works in the
fields of foreign and international law. The comprehensive materials
in foreign law include the codes, treatises, decisions, and journals of all
major European countries and Japan, and good working collections in
Latin-American law. Furthering its forward-looking policies, the library
began at an early date to build a complete collection in the law of nations, going beyond the domestic laws of the separate countries to emphasize the rules of law controlling their relations with each other. The
large collection of treatises and periodicals in inter~ational law is supplemented by many treaties and diplomatic documents, and the whole permits original and useful work to be carried on in the field of public international law.
Holdings in other specialized fields include a comprehensive collection of treatises, periodicals, and documents in criminal law and its
administration, and a special collection of materials in aeronautics, including aviation law, commerce, and other works in the field exclusive
of technical engineering publications. In addition, the library includes
outstanding collections of medieval law, jurisprudence, legal history,
and comparative law, and valuable resources in Roman law.
The Law School library is independent in administration and organization, but its comprehensive sources are supplemented in specialized
areas through inter-library loans and other cooperative arrangements
with the general University library, departmental libraries, and the major
public, educational, and legal collections in the region.
A special feature of the library is its distinguished rare book collection, housed in the handsome Hardy Scholars Treasure Room adjoining
the main reading room. These early volumes, numbering some 2,500,
have been acquired through the years and represent a variety of fields.
Many are first editions of the classics of the law, including a number of
manuscripts and incunabula, that is, books printed before 1500. A
number are unique, or the only copies in the western hemisphere. The
value of these books is not primarily antiquarian, however. They have
been gathered and selected because they are indispensable for effective
legal research in areas that may be vital both to scholars and practitioners.
Although the reserve facilities of the library have been constructed
with foresight to accommodate an eventual collection twice the size of
the current holdings, provision has also been made for the use of the
materials of legal research of the future. A section of the library is fully
fitted with the basic equipment for the use of micro-film and micro-cards,
18

�designed to replace conve n tion al books and to ameli orate their problems
of bulk and deteriorat ion .
As the practiti oner of a learned profession, th e lawyer is more than
a craftsma n. To encoura ge a wide-ranging interest among the st udents,
a section of the main reading room h as been set aside for casu al reading
in field s of current or gen eral significan ce. Comfortably furnished, the
browsing ar ea offers current periodicals as well as a broad selection of
biographical and miscellaneous works.

STUDENT FACILITIES
In informal give-and-ta ke discussion with his fe llows, the student
lawyer develops his powers of a nalys is a nd expression. To foster these
close student relationships that h ave m arked the best in legal educa tion
sin ce the profession's beginnings, the Law School h as set aside a substa ntial sh are of its facilities for student use. Lounges a re provided on each
o f the four floors of Levy Mayer H all for short p eriods of study or relaxation before class. Lowden Hall , named for the first of the School's alumni
to serve as governor of Illinois, is the principal student lounge a nd is
rich with reminders of the hi story of law a nd the Law School. Its equipment a nd comfortable furnishings include a firepl ace and , for lighter
moments, a pia no. On the lower level, adjacent to the locker area, are
dispensers of coffee, milk , soft drinks, and snacks, a nd two rooms
equipped with tables for a coffee break or light luncheon.
A unique feature of the Law School is the fourth-floor st ud y area .
Here some eight rooms are devoted exclusively to student use for informal
review sessions or individual study. Each room is supplied with reading
tables or d esks, chairs, and high-ba cked benches to accommodate from
four to ten students. These rooms are open a nd ava il able to all students
while the School is in session.
Separate offices are furnished for the various co-curricula r activities
co ndu cted under student a uspices a nd control. The officers of th e Junior
Bar Associa ti on a nd the staff of the Law R ev iew, the R eporter, the Student Book Exch a nge, a nd ca ndid a tes for the S.J.D . degree enjoy the ben efit of private offices.

FACULTY OFFICES
In keeping with long-standing tradition a t the Law School, facu lty
members are readil y available to individual students for questions a nd
confere n ces. T he tradition is physically embodied in the Law School
buildings, where each facu lty office opens directly onto the main corridors for access without forma liti es or intermedi ari es. T he arrangem ent
leads to frequent a nd fr uitful co ntact between studen t a nd teacl~er.

OF

INSTRUCTION
The purpose of the Law School is to prepare its graduates for effective service in all fields of law. The course of instruction has been organized, through experience, experiment, and analysis, to offer legal
education of the highest order, to qualify men and women not only for
the private practice of the profession but for careers in government
service, in the fields of commerce and finance, and in legal education as
well. The program is designed to provide a broad training in the techniques of the law and an understanding of its institutions, to the end
that the graduate will be equipped for practice in any legal system based
upon the foundations of Anglo-American law. The curriculum does
not concentrate upon imparting a knowledge of the legal rules applicable in any one jurisdiction or region . Rather, it concentrates upon the
development of the fundamental capacities and skills of the lawyer.
Human activity is infinitely varied and ever changing. Law, bringing
order and direction to the relations of men, involves a continuous process
of growth and adjustment. Every legal problem and each case that comes
to the lawyer is, in a sense, unique. Effective professional education must
therefore prepare the student to deal with situations never before encountered, to direct the resources of the law to new fields of human
endeavor, and to h andle not the problems of the past but the cases of
the future.
20

�Refleciing this objective, the program of instruction in the Law
School differs markedly from the usual undergraduate instruction. It requires, of course, diligence and effort for a mastery of the formal m aterials of the course. Beyond this foundation, the instruction demands
thought and initiative of the individual student, to extend his learning
beyond the limits of the materials and to stretch his powers of analysis.
As the lawyer must deal with new situations throughout his professional
life, so the student lawyer is taught to transcend rote learning and to
find his way in unfamiliar contexts. The result is an intellectual challenge that is both rewarding and stimulating. The individual student is
spurred to go as far as his mind and industry will carry him.
CLASSES

The law student typically attends classes for 15 or 16 hours during
the course of the Law School's five-day week. Class meetings are scheduled throughout the morning and afternoon to break the pace and to
permit the student to review his preparation during open hours before
class. Two or three times as many hours are devoted to individual study
as are spent in class. Time spent in valuable activities and independent
research must be added to the requirements of course work. The study
of law, therefore, is a full-time occupation.
In a typical Law School term, the student's class attendance will be
distributed among four or five courses. Some of the subjects represent
ancient categories of the law. Course titles such as Criminal Law, Property, Contracts, and Torts go back, as separate topics, to the days of Lord
Coke or Blackstone. But life has changed since those early days in the
law, and even these traditional subjects have altered substantially in content. Today in Torts the focus is on such disparate objects as the automobile and the atom, and upon the legal problem each presents to an
energized society. Property law today concerns itself not only with ancient learning but as well with such topics as urban renewal and air
rights. Criminal Law more and more is concerned with psychiatry, the
causes of crime, and modern correctional theories. The law of Contracts
today finds itself dealing with rocket construction.

�The changing character of law is reflected in the con tent of trad itional courses, altered to keep pace with a changing society. It is reflected
too in the newer courses introduced by the Law School into the law
curriculu m to deal with emerging areas of legal service. The lawyer is a
full-time student for only one period in his professional life. ·within the
limits of the possible, he must be educated in that brief span for the responsibi lities of the legal profession, not just for the day, but for the half
century of lawyer's work that lies ahead. So it is that Labor Relations,
Taxation, Administrative Law, Civil Rights, and Trade Relations were
introduced into the basic program of the Law School durin g the formative years of those subjects, anticipating the current recognition of their
significance. Courses and semi nars in International Law, Scientific Evidence, Comparative Law, and International Business Transactions illustrate the fashion in which a dynamic law school today shapes its instructional program to meet the n eeds of the profession for the years to come.

THE THREE-YEAR CURRICULUM
In the last ce ntury, Northwestern was among the first of the nation's
law schoo ls to require three years of study for a degree in law, settin g the
norm in lega l education. Beginning students enter the Law School in
September a nd attend the two semesters of the regu lar academic year for
three years. By attendin g optiona l summer sessions, however, students
may earn their degrees in 28 months.
During his first year of law study, the student follows a prescribed
co urse designed to provide an understanding of basic legal principles and
co ncepts, and to give a solid grounding in the fundamenta ls indispensab le for all branches of the profession. Here the stud ent encounters the
grand divisions of private law-Property, Tort, and Contract-as well as
Co nstitutiona l Law and Crimi na l Law. In the first term, the members
ol th e first-year class are taught the use of lega l research materials and
throughout the year are given individual instruction in legal writing. A
senior facu lty member is designated as advisor for each entering student
to aid in the adjustment to lega l ed ucation and to assist in particu lar
problems or difficulties.
Some opportu nity for elective courses a nd seminars appears in the
second-year curriculum, and the widest choice is afforded in the third
year. The student, however, does not normally "specialize" in the course
of the law school career.
The student who hopes to become a corporation lawyer, or a criminal
lawyer, or a tax lawyer wi ll, for the most part, follow the same basic
course of stud y others are pursuing. T he aspiring tax lawyer's program
will on ly be a course or two heavier in the tax field than that of his com22

�panion who expects to go into corporate practice with a large city firm
or another who plans to return to a small town for general practice. A
broad base in fundamentals is necessary in every field, and intelligent
choice can be made only from a general familiarity with the available
fields. Lawyers quite regularly turn up in posts of responsibility neither
they nor their law school faculties envisioned. The wide range of electives offered by the Law School permits a modest degree of specialization
but, more significantly, allows the student to follow the bent of his personal interests and to sample a variety of problems in the law.
In the second and third years, courses are frequently arranged so that
the student will examine related fields of law at the same time and be
made aware of their interrelations. An example of this functional integration of related courses is afforded by the seminar in Law and the
Industrial Society, in which the economic, political, and legal problems
of policy common to the fields of Corporations, Labor Relations, and
Trade Relations are studied and discussed.
Problems of law, especially those dealt with in advanced courses, are
often involved with problems of business and government. In recognition
of these ties, materials from other disciplines are integrated with legal
studies, and special lecturers are drawn not only from among the specialists in the profession and the faculties of their departments of the University, but from the business community and government as well.
It is in the advanced courses principally that the student is offered the
opportunity to explore the frontiers of the law and to work in close
cooperation with the members of the faculty. Small classes and frequent
individual conferences on research papers bring student and teacher into
rewarding personal relationships. In addition, a number of upperclassmen are chosen annually to serve as research assistants to the faculty, each
assigned personally to a professor to aid in scholarly activities.

FACULTY
The basic instruction in the Law School program is conducted by the
full-time resident faculty, who take teaching as their first responsibility.
Each member is experienced in private practice and a number have
served in responsible government posts as well. Many are called upon
for consultation and advice by government agencies and private groups,
and are active in the organizations and affairs of the legal profession.
Their scholarly activities include the delivery of lectures and addresses
before legal and public bodies as well as the preparation of learned
treatises and articles. Such activities serve to complement and to enrich
the instruction. The casebooks and other teaching materials for a majority of the courses offered in the School were prepared by the teachers
23

�who conduct the classes, and many are widely used, standard works in
their respective fields.
Several Teaching Associates are appointed annually to assist in the
educational program of the School. These faculty members, chosen from
the outstanding recent graduates of American and British law schools,
instruct the first-year students on a tutorial and individual basis in the
techniques of legal writing, research, and oral argument; they work closely
with the entering students in smaller groups.

THE METHODS OF INSTRUCTION
In recognition of the lawyer's function of articulating the conflicting
interests of society, instruction in modern law schools is conducted principally through participation by the class. No longer does the student
lawyer listen passively in a lecture audience. To maximize the educational benefits of active participation, Northwestern Law School has
adopted a curricular policy emphasizing instruction through relatively
small classes and seminars. First-year courses enrolling 175 students or
more have no place in the Law School program. The entering student
will find himself attending classes with a group of approximately half
that size. Seminars are limited in enrollment, and commonly range in
size from 12 to 20 students. Instruction of this kind requires a low
student-faculty ratio. The program of the School is based upon the conviction that this concentration of educational resources upon the individual student is most effective in developing the skills that distinguish
the legal profession.
The methods of instruction in the Law School vary from course to
course, in response to the nature of the subject matter, the role assigned
to the course in the total training of the lawyer, and the teaching philosophy of the instructor. For descriptive purposes, instructional methods
may be grouped in four general categories.

THE CASE METHOD
The case method of teaching, employed principally in the first two years of study, is founded upon the premise that
the first objective of law training is to develop an understanding on the
part of the student of how and why the courts decide cases as they do.
The method was adopted at the Law School in the earliest years of its
evolution. The materials of study are the actual decisions of courts,
embodied in written opinions rendered in real and disputed cases, rather
than a textbook compendium of legal rules. The cases themselves are the
specimens of legal controversy to be examined and dissected. The student
is brought to the level of a participant in the proceeding, analyzing each
stage in the course of litigation and each step in the process of decision.
24

�Casebooks and treatises by members of the Law School faculty constitute
basic materials of instruction .

Through painstaking scrutiny of a large number of cases, the student
shares, vicariously, the experience of the lawyers and judges who conducted them, and thereby gains an understanding of the judicial process
based on observation of the law in action at first hand.
Although the case method varies, in its use, with the approach of the
professor, the teaching styles grouped under this heading have certain
characteristic elements in common.
Under the case system, it is essential that students prepare thoroughly
and intensively before class. The course materials for this preparation
consist of a casebook, a collection of actual decisions in related kinds of
controversy. The student at Northwestern will find that the authors of
many of his casebooks are his own professors, authorities in their respective fields. The class session in a case-taught course typically wi ll not
offer a lecture but rather a discussion of several of these cases, conducted
in the manner of a Socratic dialogue between the teacher and students.
Questions are designed to test the student's understanding of th e case,
to identify the considerations that controlled the decision, a nd to probe
its implications for similar situations and its relation to other decisions.
The discussion is conducted in an atmosphere of unrelenting questioning of each idea presented, by both fellow students and instructor.
Through the guidance of provocative questions, the students develop a
healthy skepticism, a capacity for independent critical judgment, and
a tough-minded approach to legal materials.
Although the professor may upon occasion depart from the interrogating role to explain the background of a legal problem or to give
25

�direction to the class discussion, the essence of the case method is the
collective probing and searching, the crucible of give and take in which
the student's own powers of reason and analysis are tempered and developed. The system is in fact designed to cast back to the student, with
the benefit of group discussion, the task of developing for himself an
understanding, first, of what courts and administrative agencies do and
why they do it, and, second, of how to participate effectively in the
process. From the outset of his law school career, the student is thus led
to do what he will do throughout his professional life-to think, to
analyze, and to decide on his own initiative.
With their interplay of ideas and clash of opinion, class sessions are
seldom dull. Since the significant formulation in the progress of the discussion may well come from a fellow student, and since any student may
be drawn into the discussion at any time, alertness and concentrated
attention is required of all. With collective thought focused on the problem provided or suggested by the case, there are times when minds
stretch and their reach even may be extended. The mainstay of the firstyear curriculum, the case method of teaching is withal a singularly
exciting and stimulating intellectual experience for the beginning law
student.

THE PROBLEM METHOD
The problem method, an instructional technique originated at the Law School and increasingly employed
throughout legal education, is used in many second- and third-year
courses. Here the emphasis is not upon the cases or administrative decisions as such. The focus of the student's work and of the class session is
rather a set of facts raising legal problems for which there may indeed be
no authoritative solution. The student's task is to take the available
materials in the forms of decisions, statutes, and administrative rulings
and to construct or create his own solution to the problem.
Perhaps the problem is set at the stage where the businessman asks
for advice on a proposed transaction . Perhaps the transaction has already
taken place and the problem concerns the consequences to be attached
to the transaction by the federal or state government by way of taxation
or regulation. In short, the problems are much like those which come to
the lawyer in actual practice, and in fact the problems are frequently
drawn from life. Consultative practice by some members of the faculty
and the generally close relationship between the School and the practicing profession combine to provide the student in a problem-method
course with an experience that closely approximates the practice of law.
Characteristically, in a course taught by this method, the student submits, before the class session, a short memorandum solution to the problem, b ased on his analysis of relevant source material. In the class ses26

�sion he, or one of his fellow students, will be invited to explain the legal
issues presented by the problem situation and the views he takes of those
issues. Discussion, often vigorous, follows.
Sometimes a particular decision or statute may relate directly to the
problem, and at times the class session may be devoted to the examination of a leading case and its relevance to the problem assigned. At other
times the problem may fall in an area where the legal landmarks are
few, and the imaginative use of statutory materials and administrative
regulations is required. Nor are the problem sessions merely exercises
in developing the technical skills of the lawyer in marshalling and utilizing available legal materials in the solution of particular problems.
0-ften the specific, concrete problem supplies the perspective in which
basic questions of social policy, of the why and how of the development
of the law, can be considered in meaningful context.

SEMINARS
Opportunities are offered in the second and third years
for seminar work in a variety of fields. Here the student is free to select
subjects of special interest to him, and to explore new areas of the law.
In a group commonly numbering from 12 to 20, with the guidance of a
senior faculty member, the student will engage in intensive individual
work on some aspect of the general subject embraced by the seminar. It
is in the seminars that research on the frontiers of the law is most commonly undertaken. Emerging areas of policy where the resources of the
law may contribute include, for example, the control of atomic energy,
urban renewal, extending equal protection of the laws into various
aspects of national life, and the peaceful settlement of international disputes. And it is in seminar work that the law student will be expected
to cut across the disciplines and to bring to the law additional material
from such fields as economics, sociology, psychiatry, and political science.
Experts in such disciplines frequently participate in seminar meetings.
Often the seminar student writes a major paper and presents this
product of his own research for the critical consideration of the seminar
group. With the stimulus of special interest in the subject matter and the
spur of friendly criticism from interested fellow students in prospect,
significant legal research is done in the seminars. Some of the papers
are printed in the professional journals published by the Law School,
and research done in the seminar program has on occasion been favorably
noticed in the opinions of some of the highest courts.
PRACTICE COURSES
One hundred and fifty years ago there were
no American law schools and the aspiring attorney prepared himself by
working in the office of an established lawyer, observing the practice of
law, and learning through trial and error the arts and skills of the profes27

�sion. The advantages of such trammg are preserved today, within a
systematic curriculum for post-graduate study, in the practice courses
offered throughout the three years of the student's formal legal education.
In these courses, the student actually practices in skills that the practicing attorney is called upon to employ, and he learns, through experience and through exercising his own powers, the job of the lawyer.
In addition to the elements of actual practice presented in ever y
course offered by the Law School, instruction through practice is th e
specific object of a number of courses. Prominent among these is th e
course known as Legal Clinic. In 1910, Northwestern introduced to lega l
education the idea of giving law students actual experience in practi ce
by providing legal services for the poor. Under this program, law students, during the last half of their training, are afforded an opportunity
to serve in the Clinic under the supervision of a faculty member. The
Clinic handles all kinds of civil cases, and the student may consult with
clients, interview witnesses, prepare pleadings and other instruments,
appear in court, and assist in the conduct of trials. The training fills a
function similar in many respects to that of the internship in medical
education.
During his first year, the student is instructed in the techniques of
oral and written argument in the course in Moot Court. Practicing the
lawyer's skills, he is required to prepare a written brief in complian ce
with prevailiJ.1g professional standards, and to argue his case, opposed by
a fellow student, under courtroom conditions before a court composed
of prominent alumni and faculty members. This instruction is continued on a voluntary basis in the second year.
In the third year, the student is offered a choice of practice courses in
the trial of a lawsuit from its beginning to end. The instruction provides
the student with actual experience in examining witnesses, presenting
evidence, arguing to a jury, and the like. The student thus learns by
doing, not merely by precept, what the trial lawyer must be able to do.
Most of the lawyer's practice is carried on in his office, not in the
courtroom. To prepare its graduates for the work of counseling, advising, and planning, the Law School offers a number of practice courses in
which the student is called upon to draw the legal instruments and documents which the practicing attorney must be able to prepare. In the first
year, the student is assigned office memoranda on legal problems, under
individual supervision. As an upperclassman, he may select practice
courses in such fields as the drafting of wills and the planning of person al
estates, or the drafting of laws and legislative documents.

REQUIRED COURSES
For a student to be recommended for the degree of Juris Doctor,
28

�successful completion of the courses prescribed for the first and second
years is required. In addition, he must satisfy the following requirements: a minimum of two hours of seminar work (involving substantial
individual research and writing) exclusive of participation in the Law
R eview Seminar; one hour of Accounting (except for students with at
least three semester-hours of college credit in that subject); the course
in Professional Responsibility; and at least one course or seminar in
International Law. Although the faculty may change the requirements
for graduation at any time, this responsibility will not be exercised so
as to place an undue burden upon any enrolled student who has planned
his program on the basis of previously announced requirements.

COURSE LOAD
Courses totaling 16 credit-hours in any term, in the opm10n of the
faculty, represent the maximum amount of work which a good student
can do effectively under favorable conditions. On the other hand, each
student is expected to register for not less than 14 credit-hours of work
each term.
LIMITED ENROLLMENT
The seminars and the courses in Trial Technique and Trial Practice
are limited in enrollment. The School cannot assure that all students
wishing to enroll in a particular seminar, Trial Technique, or Trial
Practice can be accommodated.

within the curriculum is supplemented by a variety of additional offerings. Lectures by distinguished scholars, jurists, and statesmen from the United States

subjects of major public importance. Through participation in these programs,
the student broadens his vision and develops the sense of public responsibility
which characterizes the highest traditions of the bar.

�THE PROGRAM OF INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES
In 1957, the Ford Foundation award ed $200,000 to the Law School for the
expa nsion of its program in International Legal Studies. The School's early
interest in th e field is manifested by its substantial and seasoned library coll ections in foreign and international law, and by its long-standing requirement
that each student pursue some international studi es. In furtherance of its program, the School has offered seminars in Inter national Business Transactions,
International Organization , Comparative Law, Admiralty, a nd Civi l Liberties
on a compara ti ve basis, and a course in Family Law, with emphasis on comparative materials.
The funds of the grant are used for add itional faculty and for visiting
fo reign professors, and they support graduate fellowships for foreign lawyers
and students. Other portions of the funds are devoted to work-seminars and
conferences in the field of international law.

THE
STUDENT
BODY
A well-seasoned aphorism, familiar to law students everywhere, says
that a law student receives his education from his classmates. Like many
an old saw, the observation contains within its exaggeration a kernel of
truth. Law school instruction is built upon student participation. Beyond the classroom, the student continues his professional preparation in
give-and-take discussion, corridor debate, and friendly argument with
his fellows. The vitality of the Law School is measured by the quality
and vigor of its student body.
At Northwestern, the entering student finds himself a member of a
close-knit community of men and women , bound together by a common
pursuit and by the rich traditions of the Law School's history. The student body is comparatively small, averaging approximately 425 students,
thus facilitating wide acquaintance among the students. For purposes
of instruction, most of the classes are divided into sections, further guarding the individual from being submerged in the mass.
The beginner himself will have been carefully chosen through a
policy of selective admission designed to assure that every member of the
class is capable of legal study at the highest and most challenging level.
His classmates will be high-ranking graduates of the leading colleges and
49

�universities in the United States and a broad. In a spirit of healthy competition, the student real izes his own full capacities in keeping pace with
his fellows .
Students benefit from friendly relation ships with fellow students coming from a wide variety of backgrounds. The typical student body consists of men a nd women from some 35 states and eight or 10 foreign
cou ntries. More than 100 coll eges and universities are represented by
graduates enrolled in the Law School (see p. 85). A variety of undergraduate majors are included, and man y students have earned graduate
degrees in other fields before entering the Law School.
Law students as a whole tend to be individualistic and ven turesom e,
and a broad range of opinion a nd experience is encompassed in the
student body. The stimulating contacts of student life at the Law School
combine to develop a mature, tolerant, and broadened outlook in the
individual student.

LEGAL PUBLICATIONS
Foremost among the Law School's student activities is the publication
of the Northwestern University Law R eview, one of the nation 's leadi ng
professional journals. The R eview is circulated widely among lawyers
and judges, and is often cited in briefs and judicial opinions. The tradition in the legal world of professional journals being accepted as
authoritative within the profession, although wr it ten, edited, an d publi shed by men who have not yet achieved profession al status, is unique
amo ng the professions. , !\Tork on the Law R eview is at once the most
demanding and rewarding experience available to the law student.
A law journal entitled the Northwestern Law R eview was first es tablished by students of th e school during the academic year 1892-93, within
five years of the appeara n ce of the first student journal in the nation .
Publication was continued in 1906, after a 10-year suspension, under the
titl e Illinois Law R eview .
For a period beginning in 1924 editorship was shared with the law
schools of the University of Chicago and the U niversity of Illinois. In
1932, Northwestern students res umed full control and in 1952 the name
was changed to Northwestern University Law R eview .
At the beginning of their second year, students of highest scholastic
sta ndin g are chosen to write commen tary on legal problems for publication a nd to carry on the research, editing, and related work of the Rev iew.
Selection is one of the highest hon ors and greatest responsibilities the
Law School can bestow. The work of the Law R eview is so integrated
with the instructional program of the School that participation is normally a requisite for election to the Order of the Coif. Because of their
rich education al experience and resultin g excellent qualification for
50

�any field of the profession, Law R eview editors are so ught and preferred
after graduation by leading law firms , governme nt, and private business.
The fact that the student body is not large mea ns that at Northwestern
the opportunities for Law R eview participation are somewhat broader
than in many other schools.
Although Law R eview students work h ard, they take one clay off each
spr in g to play a softball game with the faculty and to hold a dinner
where the principal sport is caricaturing the fo ibles of their professors.
Th e .Journal of Criminal Law. Criminology and Police Science.Products of student scholarship also are published in the .Journal of
Criminal Law, Criminology and Police Science. The .Journal, first in its
field , with a world-wide circulation, has been published continuously by
the School since 1910. The editor-in-chief is Claude R . Sowle, Associate
Dean and Professor of Law, Northwestern University. He is assisted by
Gresham M. Sykes, Professor of Sociology, Dartmouth University, who
serves as Criminology Editor, and a board of Associate Editors composed of lega l scholars and criminologists. The section on Police Science
is under the editorship of Mr. Ordway H ilton, an examiner of questioned
documents in New York City, assisted by a board of Associate Ed itors
in the fields of criminalistics, police admin istration, and legal medicine.
Professor Freel E. Inbau of the Law School faculty is the Managing Director. The .Journal is published quarterly.
Student comments and papers prepared in the seminars relating to
criminal law or in individual study are published regularly in the
Journal. In combination with the Law R eview, the Journal offers to
students in the Law School a dual opportunity for intensive experience
in legal scholarship and for contribution to em inent professional journals.

MOOT COURT COMPETITION
To provide continuing practice and instruction in the arts of appellate advocacy, the first-year course in Moot Court is supplemented by a
voluntary program conducted for advanced students in the School. The
program is supervised and administered by members of the faculty ·with
the assistance of upperclassmen, and involves the preparation of appellate court briefs and the prese ntat ion of ora l arguments before panels of
judges, practicing attorneys, and faculty members. The cases typically
raise issues of current legal importance, more complex and challengin g
than those assigned in the regular first-year course. The final argument
is conducted before the entire student body, customarily with distinguished judges from the federal bench. The presiding judge for the
1963 final argument ·was Justice Arthur J. Goldberg of the Supreme
Court of the U nited States, an alumnu s of the Law School. The finalists
represent the School in the National Moot Court Competition.

�STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY:
THE JUNIOR BAR ASSOCIATION
Law students are only a few short steps removed from the practice of
law. The qualities of personal integrity and responsibility essential in
the profession are best fostered not by exhortation but by actual exercise
and experience. In the belief that the most effective way to develop
maturity and responsibility among the students is to vest responsibility
in the students themselves, the Law School has conferred a large
measure of authority upon the students' professional organization, the
Junior Bar Association.
All students are members of the Association and through it work out
the problems of student government and School activities. Its declared
objects are to encourage and promote the highest standards of integrity
and industry, to the end that its members may be properly equipped to
enter the profession of the law. The officers and Board of Governors of
the Association are elected by the students themselves.
HONOR CODE
An important product of the Law School's philosophy of student responsibility is the Honor Code and the broad authority
granted to the students, through the Junior Bar Association, with respect
to its enforcement and implementation. The basic tenet of the Honor
Code is th1.c the law student, like the lawyer, should be subject to unyielding standards of honorable conduct. In reliance upon the students'
collective sense of responsibility, Law School examinations are unmonitored and unsupervised by faculty, staff, or proctors. The Honor Code
imposes a strict obligation upon each student to report any apparent
infractions to the students constituting the Board of Governors of the
Association. After a full hearing, the Board has the duty to make findings
and to recommend appropriate disciplinary action to the faculty.
The Code covers not only the administration of examinations, but
also the submission of written papers :, nd the conduct of a student generally in his law study and relations with the School. The student body
through its elected representatives in the Junior Bar Association further
has the authority to prescribe and enforce rules of conduct in and about
the Law School and to enforce the regulations governing the use of the
library. The intent is that habits of professional self-discipline should
be developed in the student, rather than imposed upon him by outward
authority.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
The student body bears important responsibilities as well in the supplemental educational programs of the School.
The Junior Bar Association traditionally sponsors a series of frequent
lectures, bringing outstanding lawyers, judges, and political figures to
52

�the Law School to address the students on subjects of general interest.
Informal receptions, known as coffee hours, are held frequently in Lowden Hall to afford the student opportunities for social contact and casual
conversation with members of the faculty and distinguished visitors to
the School.
A wide variety of activities is carried on under student responsibility,
through the Junior Bar Association, to serve the needs and interests of
fellow students. The Association participates in an orientation program
for new students, assists them with registration, and arranges for a reception and small advisory meetings, all designed to welcome the beginner
and to ease the educational transition.
The Association operates an exchange for the purchase and sale of
used casebooks and course materials, supplementing the facilities of the
University Bookstore in Abbott Hall and helping students who must
economize.
To strengthen ties with former students and to inform the alumni of
developments at the School, the students also publish the Law School
Reporter, a magazine distributed to students and graduates three times
each year.
In recognition of the Law School's place in the legal profession at large,
the Northwestern Junior Bar Association is affiliated with the American
Law Student Association, the national organization of students in training for the law, sponsored by the American Bar Association.
In sum, the varied range of opportunities afforded to Law School
students for service to their fellows, to the School, and to the profession
provides valuable training in the exercise of those re~ppnsibi}ities that
distinguish the lawyer's calling as a profession.

RECREATION AND SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
The law student soon learn&amp; the truth of the old saying that "the law
is a jealous mistress." He will not be able to indulge extensively in
amusements or spend r:q.uch time in social events. Nevertheless, no man
or woman can accomplish a maximum of work without a reasonable
amount of recreatior.
Organized social activities at the Law School are sponsored by the
Junior Bar Association and by the several legal fraternities. In addition
to the coffee hours, the Association holds a dance for all students once
each semester.
Chapters of three national legal fraternities-Phi Alpha Delta, Phi
Delta Phi, and Tau Epsilon Rho-and one legal sorority-Kappa Beta Pi
- have been established at the Law School. Members do not live nor eat
together and lines are not sharply drawn. The fraternities do, however,
arrange for a number of occasions which have professional as well as

recreational value. T hey hold luncheo ns during the co urse of the year
with addresses by nationally and locally prominent lawyers, judges, and
public officials. And they spo nsor dances and informal parties. No ne of
these groups follows any discriminatory membership policy.
A program of intramural athletics in volving the legal fratern iti es and
other groups on the ca mpus offers participation in organized sports, and
nearby beaches, golf courses, a nd other facilities are available for indi vidual recreation. T ickets are offered at reduced rates for the U niversity's intercollegia te athletic programs on the undergraduate campus in
Evanston.
Many opportunities for entertainment and cultural pursuits afforded
in a city such as Chicago are close at h and.

STUDENT WIVES
A useful auxiliary of the Junior Bar Association is the organization
of the wives of Law School students. A substantial minority of the student body is married.
At the social gatherings of the L aw Wives, the student's wife can visit
with faculty wives, d iscuss matters of common interest, and spend a
pleasant evening during her husband's long hours in the library. To help
her to unders tand the work that demands so much of her husband's time
a nd a ttenti on, the law wife may enjoy an informal talk by one of the
fac ulty members on the vicissitudes of law stud y or a legal problem of
general interes t. Occasionally professors have conducted abbreviated
versions of their Law School courses for the student wives, to give them
a first-hand view of the educational process in which their husbands are
so deeply involved.
54

�STUDENT RESIDENCE
Living and working together, law students gain advantages that are
significant if not readily apparent. Casual conversation as well as earnest
discussion contributes to the development of the prospective lawyer's
powers and personality. The stimulation and discipline students give
one another have an impact that is directly evident in the classroom.
The ancient ancestors of modern law schools, the English Inns of
Court, depended solely upon the influences of students' living, eating,
and arguing informally together to produce men of professional qualification. For the student who resides in Abbott Hall, the Law School becomes the center of everyday life. The library and the classrooms are
accessible, the distractions of commuting are avoided, and the student
naturally and effortlessly concentrates his time and attention on preparing for the practice of law.
For these reasons, all law students except married students and those
whose homes are within easy commuting distance of the School are expected to live in Abbott Hall. It is designed to provide convenient and
attractive living quarters and to provide an atmosphere in which may be
developed all those qualities of personality which are so essential to a
lawyer, but which for the most part fall outside the sphere of formal
training.
The building, 18 stories high, overlooks Lake Michigan on Lake
Shore Drive from Huron to Superior Street. It is constructed of Indiana
limestone and conforms in architectural style to the classroom buildings
on the campus. The first two floors and the basement are given over to
common rooms for social and recreational purposes, the upper sixteen to
private accommodations. The first floor contains general offices and a
series of shops. On the second floor is a large student lounge, a fountaingrill, and two large dining rooms which offer cafeteria service. In addition there is a lounge and common living room on each of the upper
floors. Athletic facilities for bowling, squash and ping-pong are available
in the basement.
Floors are reserved for the students of the School of Law. There is
also space reserved for women law students. Double study-bedrooms are
available. Rooms are equipped with desks of modern design, dressers,
and beds with inner-spring mattresses. All rooms are provided with
chairs, draperies, and lamps. Each room has a double closet. (Trunks are
stored in the baggage room in the basement.) Bed linens and blankets are
included in the furnishings, and 5½ day maid service is given.
The cost of room and board in Abbott Hall is reasonable, and is below
the rates charged for other desirable accommodations in the same part of
the city. The location of rooms is indicated by the floor plan which
appears on page 58 of this Bulletin.

The attractive residents' Dining Hall on the second floor serves excellent food a nd is operated on a daily cash basis. A large selection of foods
is offered at moderate prices, three meals per day averaging from $2.75
to $3.50.
The average room rate for the academic year is $3 65.00 for each occupant. Before a room is occupied, a contract for the academic year is
signed by the applicant.
The Division of Student Finance issues and makes all adjustments on
the residence bills for Abbott Hall. Rental bills are issued for p ayments
on October 1, J anu ary l, and April 1, during the academic year. Bills
are due upon presentation and are payable at the Cashier's Office in
Abbott Hall.
Applications, together with a $25. 00 room deposit, should be filed as
early as possible. For room applications, address the Manager, Abbott
Hall, 710 North Lake Shore Drive, Chicago 11.

�Abbott Hall also has a limited number of apartments for married
students, which are completely furnished including utilities and daily
maid service. Apartments average $ 130.00 per month. There is a variety
of other apartments in the vicinity of the Law School within easy commuting distance. For the convenience of students, a listing of off-campus
housing is mainta ined in Abbott Hall.

STUDENT HEALTH SERVICE
Through the Student Health Service of the University, students of the
Law School are furnished medical care and treatment. The facilities of
the several hospitals associated with the University and situated on the
campus are available for confinement, and out-patient care and consultation are provided in the Medical School
Students are enrolled with the Service a t the time of registration, and
a t that time complete the necessary forms, appear for a conference, and
receive detailed information about the plan. For a more complete description, the Student H ealth Service Information Bulletin is available

THE
ACADEMIC
PROGRAM
The deepest traditions of the Law School are rooted in scholarship
and educational excellence. For more than a century, the Law
School has been devoted to improvement and innovation in legal education. Its graduates and faculty have numbered among the great teachers
and scholars of their times, and, as deans and faculty m embers in other
centers of legal learning, have shared and extended this dedication. The
academic program of the School today reflects and preserves the strong
tradition.

ADMISSION
Since its early years, the Law School h as followed a policy of selective
admission to preserve its character as a cohesive academic community of
modest size and to assure continued educational standards of the highest
order. In consequence, the School is unable to accept many applicants
who are ca pable of successfully completing legal studies and qualifying
for the practice of law.
Applicants are selected for admission upon the basis of demonstrated
scholarship, intellectual capacity, and qu alities of character requisite to
the profession. The School endeavors to admit on ly those applicants
whose records indicate that they will successfully complete the course of
study.
59

�Application forms and information concerning admission requirements may be obtained by writing to the: Office of Admissions, Northwestern University School of Law, 357 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago,
Illinois 60611.
Students beginning the study of law enter the School at the opening of
the first semester, in September.
Before enrollment, the student must have obtained a bachelor's degree
from an approved college or university.
The application form must be supplemented by a transcript from
each college or university attended. Except in unusual cases, transcripts
should not be supplied until they include a record of three full academic
years. If the application is approved, the applicant will be asked at
registration to supply a final transcript certifying the award of a b achelor's degree, unless the transcripts originally submitted contain that
certification.
The application must also be supported by a report of the applicant's
score on the Law School Admission Test. This Law School joined with
several other schools in sponsoring the development of this test, which
is designed to measure the student's general aptitude for the study
of law. Information on how to arrange to take the test, administered
by the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, New Jersey, will be supplied with the admission forms. The test may be taken either before or
after the forms are filed, although an applicant for admission in September should ordinarily plan to register either for the test given in the fall
or the test given in the winter of the preceding academic year. The Educational Testing Service should be requested to report the applicant's
score directly to the School of Law.
An applicant is also asked to submit recommendations, on forms furnished by the School, from two college or university instructors. An
applicant need not appear for a personal interview unless requested by
the Committee on Admissions. Prospective students are invited and
encouraged, however, to visit the School.
The completed application form may be submitted at any time during
the year preceding the expected date of entrance. Early application is
advisable. It is not necessary to wait until the transcripts, test score, and
recommendations can be supplied before filing the application. The
application fee is $ 10.00.
Applications are considered and acted upon as soon as the supporting
information has been received. Determinations are made upon a balanced evaluation of the applicant's college record and the Law School
Admission Test score, supplemented by the required recommendations
and other information bearing on his capacity and qualification for law
60

�study. Each applicant is considered carefully and individually. The trend
of undergraduate achievement, performance in particular fields and
courses, and the demands and influence of other activities and personal
circumstances are weighed and taken into account. Every doubtful application is thoroughly discussed and examined by a committee of faculty
members, which may seek further information from the applicant, his
college or professors, or request the student to appear for an interview
to assist the committee in its deliberations.
An applicant who is accepted for admission is required to make a
deposit of $50.00 by April 15 of the year of entrance or within thirty
clays after notice of acceptance, whichever is later. Upon registration,
the deposit is applied toward the payment of tuition.
No applicant previously enrolled in another Jaw school will be admitted either as a beginning student or as a transfer student if he is
ineligible to continue study at that school.

TRANSFER
The admission of students previously enrolled in other law schools
who wish to become candidates for the degree of Juris Doctor depends
upon the applicant's achievements in Jaw study as well as upon the factors
which control the admission of beginning students. Generally stated, the
standard requires a highly creditable law school record.
Transfer applicants should submit the application form with the
$10.00 application fee, transcripts from each college and university
attended, including the law school from which transfer is contemplated,
and two recommendations from former instructors, at least one a law
school instructor. A statement of class standing should also be submitted.
Transfer applicants are not required to take the Law School Admission
Test unless requested. If an applicant has already taken the test, however, a score report must be furnished to complete the application.
The granting of credit for courses completed in other schools and the
allowance of advanced standing rest within the discretion of the Dean of
the School. In no event will transfer credit be given for law school work
in schools which are not members of the Association of American Law
Schools or for courses in which the student received a grade below C or
its equivalent.

SUMMER SESSION
A student enrolled in another law school may be admitted for the
summer session upon a certificate of good standing from the school in
which he is permanently enrolled.

�PRE-LEGAL STUDY
A bachelor's degree in arts or science is required for admission to the
Law School, but no specific fields of major study or particular courses are
prescribed. The purpose of the requirement is to provide the prospective
lawyer with a sound liberal education for the discharge of his broader
professional responsibilities as well as to provide a foundation for law
school training. Since the reach of the law's concerns may be as wide as
the range of human behavior, no particular course of undergraduate
study confers a special advantage in the law.
College curricula vary, the content of courses bearing the same title
may be dissimilar, and teaching attitudes and emphases differ. Accordingly suggestions must be general. Courses in such fields as history, economics, anthropology, sociology, government, and political science may
help the student to understand the structure of society and the problems
of social ordering with which the law is concerned. Studies in philosophy
and literature may impart a familiarity with the traditions of thought
that have influenced legal developments. The examination of human
behavior in courses in psychology and its analysis through statistical
method may also prove worthwhile.

In developing the capacities and skills of the lawyer, the college student should pursue studies that will enhance his power to express himself with clarity a nd force. Engli sh, foreign la nguage courses, and public
speaking can be recommended, but the capacities may be develope.d as
well in other courses in which written work of high quality is demanded.
For the systematic ordering of abstractions and ideas, the physical, natural , and mathematical sciences, in addition to logic, may be suggested.
Apart from subject matter, the student preparing for the study of law
should take courses of sufficient difficulty to try his capacities to the
utmost, to assist in the development of the rigorous intellectual discipline
essential to success in law school. He would be well advised, in addition,
to pursue his studies far enough in some definite field to attain a mastery
of the subject, to gain the experience of deep and thorough understanding. The typical student is more likely to extend himself and thereby to
increase his capacities for law study if he follows the bent of his own
interests and tastes.
It is perhaps advisable, however, for the prospective law student to
avoid undergraduate courses in law, designed for men preparing for
other callings and duplicating law school work. Ordinarily, the time and
effort will be better spent in studies in other fields. It should be noted
that a student will be required to take a one-hour course in accounting
in the second year of Law School unless he has received college credit for
three semester-hours, or its equivalent, in the field.

1960 and made possible in part by
alumni gifts, completes the Law School
quadrangle.

In general, the undergraduate college student is best advised not to try
to prepare particularly and narrowly for his law school studies, but to
prepare for his life as a lawyer by obtaining the best available general
education. He will find that what is best for law school is also the best
in liberal education-a course of study that develops in the student the
capacity to understand, to think for himself, and to express himself
effectively.

TUITION, FEES, AND EXPENSES
The cost of a year of law study varies with the needs, habits, and circumstances of the student. As a base from which individual estimates may be drawn,
the sum of $2600 approximates the total expense for the academic year of the
average unmarried student res.iding in Abbott Hall, the Law School dormitory.
Of th is total, slightly more than $1300 is required for tuition , fees, books and
supplies. The remainder represents the typical expenditure for room, board,
and personal needs.

TUITION
The student's total investment in his legal education, while large in absolute
terms, is insubstantial in comparison with its total returns in the decades of his
professional life. Short-term economies often prove wasteful in the long run.
In the interests of its students, the Law School has made every effort to hold
down the costs, but in the same interests it has refused to sacrifice any of the
elements of a legal education of the highest quality. The cost of each student's
education is only partly covered by his tuition payments. A substantial portion
is paid from income from endowments and from annual gifts of alumni and
friends of Northwestern.

Undergradu a te
and gradua te students who meet the following regulations are eligible to app ly
fo r rebates: (a) full-time faculty a nd staff mem bers listed o n the regular twelvemonth payroll of th e Un iversity; (b) dependent so ns and da ughters of such
persons; (c) full-tim e empl oyees of affi li a ted institutio ns.
• In many courses it is necessary to supply mimeographed materials. At the beginning of each
term a charge is made against each student for the mimeographed materials required in his courses
on the basis of the cost of the supplies and labor requ ired in their preparation. No charge is
made for the time of the instructor and his secretaria l assistant;; spent in research, editing , and
cutting the stencils for the ma te ria ls.

65

�A full-time faculty or staff member will be granted a rebate of 50 per cent of
his tuition charges with a maximum rebate each term of 25 per cent of the
established fuU-tim e tuition rate. This rebate limitation recognizes that the fulltime facu lty member or staff employee cannot carry, wi th justice to his work,
more than h alf of the academic program.
Application blanks for these rebates are ava ilable at the Student Finance
Office, Abbott H all, and must be filed with that office before registration each
term.
Students should call for the rebate checks at the Division of Student Finance,
Abbo tt Hall, one day before their tuition bills become due. R ebate checks are
applicable on tuition charges only, and cannot be accepted in payment of
other fees.
STUDENT DEPOSIT ACCOUNT
The University maintains a student deposit account at the Cashier's Office, Abbo tt H all, as an accommodation to students. Studen ts may write only counter checks against their deposits, payable
to themselves. There is no charge for this service, and no interest is paid on
deposits.

SCHOLARSHIPS, GRANTS, AND
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
If a student has the ability a nd motivation necessary for the study of
law, the School is committed to providing all possible assistance so
that h e can reach his educational goals. Through scholarships, loa ns, and
a limited amount of part-time work, many students are able to complete
their law studies a t Northwestern with a minimum of initial savings or
outside financial aid.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND GRANTS
Approximately one-third of the School's entering students receive
finan cial assistan ce in the form of scholarships or loans. The amounts
of the awards vary from a portion of tuition to full tuition plus a stipend
for subsistence. Ordinarily an award of financi al assistance to a first-year
student is r enewed as a matter of course for his second a nd third year
if he maintains a creditable class standing.
All or part of an award may be m ade subj ec t to an obligation of
repayment after gradu a tion. In these cases, repayment is ordinarily
m ad e on an installment b asis during the first few years following graduation. Interest does not accrue until the encl of the first year after
graduation, and thereafter the rate is low.
Awards of fin ancial assistance are m ade upon the basis of academic
promise a nd need. Each applica tion is individually considered by a committee of faculty members and each award is determined by an individual
appraisal of the student's qualifica tions for law study and monetary
66

�Generous physical facilities , and a student body of limited size, produce an
atmospher': conducive to effective study .

needs. For students of exceptional ability who have adequate resources
for law study, a limited number of honorary scholarships are awarded
annually in recognition of pre-legal achievement. These special scholarships, described below, carry only a nominal financial award, so that
available funds may be devoted to the assistance of students who otherwise would be unable to study law.
Application forms for scholarships and gra nts may be obtained by
writing to the Office of Admissions of the Law School. Special applica tion
forms are required for the Clarion DeWitt Hardy Scholarships, described
below.
An application for financial assistance need not accompany the application for admission, but should be submitted early to assure consideration before funds are committed.
The available funds are:

Cla rion DeWitt Hard y Scholarships in Law . Scholarships providing
[or tuition , and for an addition al amount of up to $1,000 for expenses,
depending upon the needs of the student, are available for several students in each entering class. The amount is sufficient, with average
summer earnings, to enable the student to meet all typical costs of an
academic year. The scholarships are renewed each year for scholars who
maintain a good record and meet the other standards of the program.
The scholarships are in honor of the late Professor Clarion De"\,Vitt Hardy
67

�of the School of Speech, and were established by Owen L. Coon, an
alumnus who died in l 948, in memory of the man "who contributed
most" to his edm:ation. The purpose of the scholarships is to assist able
students whose desire to enter the legal profession includes the objective
of devoting a part of their lives to public service. Requirements, in addition to expressed interest in public service, are high scholastic attainment,
forensic and writing ability, and leadership qualities . Funds are provided by the Owen L. Coon Foundation, and the Hardy Scholarship
Committee of the faculty administers the program.

LOANS
Among the sources of Law School loan funds are the Raoul Berger

provide repayable grants to deserving law students in need of financial
assistance.
In addition, Phi Alpha Delta Law Fraternity has inaugurated a
program of offering loans from its Endowment Fund to worthy student
members of the Fraternity who are in need of such aid to complete their
law school education. The maximum amount of such loans is .$500.

EXAMINATIONS AND GRADES
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. In accordance
with the prevailing practice in legal education, a single final examina
tion is usually given, without periodic or mid-term tests, to permit comprehensive treatment of the subject matter and to measure the student's
capacity to work with and master a substantial body of material. Although examinations provide the most important source for determining
the student's relative achievement, consideration may also be given to
the written work done in connection with a course and to the preparation
of assignments for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion. In
seminar courses, no examinations are ordinarily given and grades are
based upon the products of individual research and participation in the
seminar discussions.
In addition, begining in 1965, a comprehensive examination will be
required each year of all students who entered the Law School in September, J963, or thereafter, and who are scheduled to be graduated in
February, June, or August of the year following the examination. The
examination, which will be administered in either September or October
71

�each year, will cover all required courses. No credit hours toward graduation will be given for the taking of the examination. However, each
student's grade on the examination will receive a weight of four hours
in all subsequent computations of his grade average.
Students who are eligible but who, for good reason, are unable to
take an examination may, with the permission of the Dean, take the next
regularly scheduled examination in the course, take the examination
late, or, in unusual cases, be given a special examination.
The grading system is numerical. A grade of 85 or above represents
work of the highest distinction. Grades of 68 and above indicate various
degrees of satisfactory work. Credit is given for courses in which the
student receives a grade from 60 through 67, but such grades indicate
unsatisfactory work. No credit is given for a course in which a grade of
less than 60 is received.
A student who, at the end of any term after his first term in School,
has failed to maintain an average of 68 to that date is ineligible for
further registration in the School. A student who fails to a ttain an
average grade of 68 over his entire course is ineligible for a degree.
Grades received at other schools are not considered in determining the
average grade.
At the option of the instructor, grades in courses and seminars in
which no examination is given may be recorded simply as P (Pass) or
F (Failure).

HONORS AND PRIZES
Since its beginnings, the Law School has been dedicated to the encouragement and recognition of legal scholarship. In 1907, the Order of
the Coif was founded at Northwestern, and it has since become the recognized national honor society in legal education with chapters, numbering more than 45, established in most of the leading law schools.
The tradition of original and enduring scholarship and the devotion
to excellence manifested in the founding of the Order of the Coif permeate the activities of the School. Exemplifying the Law School's emphasis
on scholarship are the many honors and awards recognizing superior
accomplishment.
THE ORDER OF THE COIF, NORTHWESTERN CHAPTER
The Northwestern chapter of the Order of the Coif annually elects from
the senior class a number of persons, not exceeding ten per cent of the
class, who on the basis of scholarship and character are deemed worthy
of the honor. The work of the Law Review is so integrated with the
instruction program of the School that satisfactory participation in that
work is normally a requisite for election to the Order of the Coif.
72

�THE NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY LAW REVIEW

DEGREES
Degrees wi ll be conferred by the Trustees of the University upon students who are recommended by the faculty of the School of Law. Before
a student is recommended for a degree, he must have satisfied the faculty
as to his character, and he must have complied with the requirements for
the degree for which he is a candidate.
The first degree in law awarded by the University is the Juris DocLOr (JD.). It is conferred upon students who have satisfactorily completed courses carrying 90 semester-hours of credit in the School of Law,
including the required courses described on pages 28-29. The work
must be pursued during a residence period of three academic years or
the equiva lent. The last year must be in residence at Northwestern
Univers ity School of Law, and in the case of students transferring from
anoLher law school, a minimum of thirty semester-hours of credit must
be ea rned in this School.
When the faculty believes that the candidate's record of scholarship
mer its special recognition , the degree may be awarded "'il\Tith Distinction"
or "With Highest Distinction."
75

�Degrees conferred upon students who have already obtained their
first degrees in law are described in the information concerning Graduate
Study, below.

GRADUATE STUDY IN LAW
The graduate program of the Law School has several objectives. One
purpose is to offer to recent law graduates who have demonstrated
superior proficiency in the study of law, as well as to active practitioners,
an opportunity not only to broaden their legal knowledge but also to
study and engage in research in particular fields of interest. The School
also desires to make its facilities available to law teachers, and prospective law teachers, interested in advanced study and original research and
writing under faculty guidance. In addition, the program is intended to
provide outstanding graduates of foreign law schools with an opportunity to expand their knowledge of American legal processes and to
engage in comparative legal research.
Inquiries concerning graduate study should be addressed to the Office
of Admissions of the Law School. No application fee is required of
foreign applicants for admission to graduate study.

ADMISSION TO GRADUATE STUDY AND TO CANDIDACY
FOR ADV AN CED DEGREES
The admission of students who have been awarded a first degree in
law to graduate study or to candidacy for the degree of Master of Laws or
Doctor of Juridical Science are matters which rest within the discretion of
the Graduate Committee.
Although foreign graduate students whose native language is not
English are eligible for admission as graduate students, they normally
are not admitted as candidates for a degree until they have completed
one semester's work as graduate students and have demonstrated during
that time their capacity to complete successfully the degree requirements.
Experience indicates that foreign students whose native language is
not English have great difficulty in meeting the requirements unless they
have a good command of written and spoken English.

DEGREES
Two graduate degrees are granted: the degree of Master of Laws
(LL.M.) and the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science (S.J.D.).
Master of Laws (LL.M.). The degree of Master of Laws will be conferred upon students who have obtained a first degree in law from this
University or another having equivalent requirements; in unusual cases,
76

�this requirement may be waived by a vote of the faculty. Also such students must fulfill the following requirements:
(a) The completion of one academic year of residence in this School,
during which time credit must be obtained for not less than 10 semesterhours in courses or seminars not previously counted toward the first
degree in law. During their year of residence, graduate students will be
required to maintain a superior scholarship record. Eae:h graduate student's course program is individually planned in light of the student's
choice of a thesis topic. Also, students who have not previously taken
Jurisprudence and Comparative Law will be required to enroll in these
seminars. To the extent necessary to establish a background for their
research, the Graduate Committee may, in its discretion, require graduate students to take course and seminar work in addition to the minimum prescribed above.
(b) The completion of a thorough study of some approved legal topic
and the presentation of a paper embodying its results. The candidate's
thesis must be of such character as to be suitable for publication in the
Northwestern University Law Review or The Journal of Criminal Law,
Criminology and Police Science.
(c) The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the facu lty.

Doctor of Juridical Science (S.].D.). The degree of Doctor of Juridical Science will be conferred upon students who have obtained the
degree of Juris Doctor from this or some other university or college having equivalent requirements for that degree, or have obtained the degree
of Bachelor of Laws from another university or college whose requirements for that degree are equivalent to those prescribed by this School
for the degree of Juris Doctor, and who have fulfilled the following
requirements:
(a) The completion of one academic year of residence in this School.
The time required for the comp letion of a candidate's work, however,
will normally run far beyond the period of residence required.
(b) The completion of a study to be approved by the faculty or its
designated committee. This study shall be one involving original research
and must be completed in such manner, both as to subject matter and
literary form, as to be, in the opinion of the faculty, a significant and
scholarly contribution to legal science.
(c) The completion of such other work, if any, as may be directed by
the Dean in the particular case.
(d) The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the faculty.
It is the policy of the faculty to restrict this degree to candidates who
have had substantial experience either in practicing or teaching law and
77

�who, through their published writings, have evidenced their capacity for
advanced graduate work.
Candidates for this degree are afforded every facility for both library
and field research, and at some time during their residence they are given
the opportunity to instruct students along the line of their research. They
are given the rank of graduate fellow and are accorded many of the
privileges of members of the faculty.

TUITION, FEES, AND EXPENSES
Full information concerning tuition and fees for graduate study
appears on page 64 of the Bulletin.
The expenses of an unmarried student for the academic year, including books, board and room, and incidentals (but excluding tuition and
fees) should approximate $1,300 to $1,400.
Accommodations for unmarried graduate students are available on
the University's Chicago campus.
The Law School has no funds available for travel expenses of graduate students, and it is necessary for those accepted for graduate study
to make their own arrangements through the Fulbright program or
otherwise.

GRADUATE FELLOvVSHIPS
FELLOWSHIPS IN INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES
In
1957 the Ford Foundation made a grant to the Law School for expansion
of its program in International Legal Studies. The sum of $6,400 a year
is specifically made available for graduate fellowships for foreign lawyers
and students. Applicants interested in pursuing international legal
studies as their major interest are given preference in the awarding of
these Ford Fellowships.
The Law School has long been interested in international law and
related subjects. The late Dean Wigmore inaugurated this interest and
laid the foundation for a substantial collection of international and
foreign law materials available in the Law Library. For more than 10
years the School has offered a basic introductory course in International
Law. The school has also offered seminars in International Organization,
Comparative Law, Admiralty, and Civil Liberties on a comparative basis.
In furtherance of the grant, the School has added a course in Family Law
with emphasis on comparative materials, a seminar in International Business Transactions, and a seminar on European Economic Organizations.
The James Nelson Raymond Fellowship is awarded on a competitive
basis to applicants, domestic or foreign, interested in any field of legal
study, including International Legal Studies.
78

�The amount of these fellowships is three thousand two hundred dollars ($3,200). From these amounts, tuition and fees are deducted. The
amount of the fellowship award, after these deductions, is paid in ten
installments, the first being available on September 15.
In addition, since 1961 the General Electric Foundation has made
an annual grant of $5,000 for research in the field of International Law.
A fellowsh ip is conferred for this purpose.

FELLOWSHIPS IN CRIMINAL LAW
A grant in 1958 to the Law
School by the Ford Foundation contains provisions for a program of
graduate study in criminal law. The grant provides that six fellowships
may be awarded annually. Two of these fellowships are for graduates of
foreign law schools. Generally, persons receiving these fellowships are
candidates for the degree of Master of Laws.
A primary aim of this graduate program is the improvement of
criminal justice through the development and training of outstanding
persons interested in devoting their talents primarily to teaching and
writing in the field of criminal law and administration. The program is
also open to persons interested in additional study as preparation for or
in furtherance of careers in other areas of the administration of criminal justice.
In selecting the fellows, considerable weight is given to the applicant's
scholastic record and attainments both in law school and in college. Consideration also is given to the applicant's interest in the field of criminal
law and his plans for the future with respect to that interest. Although
actual experience in some area of the administration of criminal justice
is not required for admission to the program, such experience is, of
course, helpful in demonstrating the applicant's genuine interest in
the field.
The amounts of the fellowships range from $3,200 to $4,200. From
these amounts, tuition and fees are deducted. The amount of each
fellowship award, after these deductions, is paid in ten installments,
the first being available on September 15.
GENERAL INFORMATION CONCERNING
GRADUATE FELLOWSHIPS
Additional information concerning the fellowship programs described
above, including application requirements, filing deadlines, and award
dates, may be obtained by writing to the Office of Admissions of the
Law School.
Normally, fellowships are not awarded to foreign students who already
have spent a year in this country under another scholarship grant. Also,
fellowships are granted for one year only.
79

�None of the graduate fellowships described above contains provisions
for travel expenses. Students must make their own travel arrangements.
Successful fellowship applicants should also bring sufficient funds for
personal expenses from the time of arriva l until September 15.

TEACHING ASSOCIATES
Several Teaching Assoc iates are appointed a nnuall y to assist in the
educational program of the School. Each associate normally devotes
about half of his time to working with and advising students chiefly in
connection with written work. The balance of his time is available at
the option of each associate for research and class work toward a graduate degree or for work on various projects related to governmental and
civic affairs in close cooperation with members of the faculty.

PLACEMENT
At graduation the Northwestern law student JOms the century-long
procession of Law School alumni . A wide range of choice is open. To
provide its graduates with advice, guidance, and a broad selection of
opportunities for their legal careers, the Law School maintains a Placement Office under faculty direction.
Through general announcements to the profession and particular
inquiries, the Placement Office gathers information on professional opportunities and openings. T h e Placement Office compiles a complete listing of these opportunities, maintains files for the use of prospective
graduates, and posts announ cements of new openings to keep the students' information current.

It has been repeated in each generation that the bar is overcrowded.
But the demand for well-trained able young lawyers has not diminished,
and the rising level of starting salaries gives evidence of the professional
need. Each year, the Placement Office receives inquiries and requests
from law firms, corporations, and government agencies for many times the
number of available graduates.
Naturally, most of the Law School's alumni are engaged in the private
practice of law. Some have chosen to remain in Chicago, while others
have settled in cities and towns throughout the United States. In large
firms and in individual practice, Northwestern graduates rank as leaders
of the bar in nearly every state in the nation and in several foreign countries. In service to their profession as well as their clients, they have occupied the presidencies of the American, state, and local bar associations.
Not all alumni elect the rewards of private practice. Furthering a
strong tradition of public service, a number of men in each graduating
class accept positions with government, at the national, state, or local
80

and educators have led Northwestern's
School of Law. Dean John Ritchie assumed
the post in 1957.

81

�in government is of great value. Others make public service a career and
attain high public office, elective or appointive.
The roster of Law School alumni includes governors and United
States Senators, cabinet members, department heads, and diplomats;
mayors, attorneys-general, and prosecutors; legislators and government
advisors.
The strength of the Northwestern tradition of public service is illustrated by a striking statistic: In more than half the presidential campaigns of the past 65 years a Law School alumnus has been either the
candidate or a strong contender for the nomination of one of the two
major parties.
In the judiciary, Northwestern men have served with distinction on
the benches of the highest courts, both federal and state. For the topranking students, there are opportunities for clerkships with justices and
judges of the federal and state courts.
Openings in the field of law teaching are not numerous, and the
financial rewards are not great. Through the years, Northwestern, for
its size, has contributed more than its share of the nation's law teachers.
Its graduates have joined the faculties of nearly all the major law schools
in the United States, and many Northwestern men have served as deans,
university presidents, and leaders in other branches of education.
An expanding field of opportunity, beyond the limits of traditional
practice, is offered the Law School graduate interested in business, industry, and finance. In increasing recognition of the values of legal training,
corporations, banks, and companies in a wide range of enterprise have
come to seek Law School graduates not only for their legal staffs but for
executive positions as well. Attractive starting salaries and opportunities
for advancement in management have combined to draw a substantial
number of graduates of the Law School. Alumni have risen to principal
executive posts in many of the nation's largest corporations in such fields
as transportation, oil, retailing, insurance, finance, public utilities, and
manufacturing.
From the array of professional opportunities open to him, the graduating student must choose for himself. It is the function of the Law
School Placement Office to aid him in exploring the possibilities and to
arrange the necessary contacts.
Each year a large number of law firms from major cities throughout
the United States send partners to the Law School to interview advanced
students. Government agencies, corporations, and banks also send representatives to the School for interviews. In addition to the hundreds of
personal interviews conducted annually at the Law School, the Placement
Office arranges for interviews of students in large numbers at law offices,
government agencies, and corporate headquarters.

�level. Working with prosecuting and investigating agencies, on government boards and commissions, and on the staffs of government departments, these men are often vested with major responsibilities and acquire
wide experience early in their professional lives. After a period of
government service, many enter private practice, where their experience
A biographical summary is prepared and duplicated for each prospective graduate seeking a position, and appropriate letters of introduction
and recommendation are furnished.
Beyond its service to current graduates, the Law School Placement
Office also handles the temporary placement of students with law firms
and government agencies for summer vacation periods, in Chicago and
elsewhere, typically between the student's second and third years, and
the placement of alumni of earlier years who are returning from military
service or are seeking a change of position.

83

�THE LAW ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
Over the years the Law School has enjoyed the loyal support of its
alumni. Commemorating the Law School's centennial, they contributed
substantially to the construction of Robert R. McCormick Hall and the
Owen L. Coon Library, and their generous annual gifts to the Law
Alumni Fund provide scholarships and significant support for the general
program of the School.
Many alumni assist directly in the educational program. A number
serve as judges in the Moot Court programs . In addition, alumni are
freq uently asked to draw upon their practical experience and special
knowledge in particular fields of law by participating in course work
or addressing student groups. They render invalu ab le assistance in connection with the placement program.
Each year alumni reunions are held during the meetings of the American Bar Association and various state bar associations. In addition, an
a lumni dinner is held each spring in Chicago with a prominent guest
speaker. Also, a facu lty-alumni luncheon is held in Chicago each fall.
Officers and directors of the Law A lumni Association for the academic
year 1962-63 were:

�"Where there is arbitrary power, there

LAW

STUDY

AT

NORTHWESTERN
For more than a century the School of Law has been dedicated to
the education of men for all branches of endeavor in the law under
the highest standards of academic and professional excellence. This
dedication marks the character of the Law School today.
Professional training of the highest order and the development of
each student's unique capabilities are fostered by a close working relationship between student a nd teacher. Early in its history, the Law School
adopted a policy of limited enrollment to promote educational quality.
Today Northwestern remains a law school of medium size, small in
comparison with others of national standing. The result is that each
student is the beneficiary of a significant sh are of the resources of the
School.
In furtherance of its objectives of excellence, the Law School maill1tains a policy of selective admission to assure that each student is capable,
first, of benefiting from challenging instruction a nd, second, of pursuing
intellectual goals with self-discipline and initiative. Those chosen are
students of independent and seeking mind, who need not be led but
who, on the contrary, can contribute to the education of their fellows
in cooperative endeavor. For effective teaching of students of the highest
calibre, instruction is condu cted in small groups by a faculty who devote
their full energies to legal education.
The faci lities of t he School have been designed in the belief tha t
balanced preparation for the profession cannot be confined to the
classroom. The Law School, with its comprehensive library arranged
for effective scholarsh ip and its ample provision for informal conference
JO

�and discussion, constitutes a self-sufficient center for legal learning. The
continuous exchange of thought and opinion in a cohesive student body
of outstanding men and women in close contact with a distinguished
faculty recalls the classic concept of a university as an independent
community of scholars.
The first law school in its state and region and among the oldest
in the nation, Northwestern enjoys a rich heritage.
The spirit of the profession is respected and preserved in the architecture and atmosphere of its buildings and in the traditions of student
life. At the same time, the School's program of instruction is designed
to prepare students for the broad challenge of the future. Long identi&gt;fied with forward-looking movements in legal education, the Law School
today offers a curriculum arranged to foster an understanding of the
formative principles that guide growth and change in the law, to educate lawyers not for the demands of the practice of the past or even of
the present, but for the years ahead in which today's students will live
out their professional lives.

In this century the Jaw has emerged as a profession vitally integrated
with every phase of the nation's economic, social, and political development. With advanced teaching materials and techniques, a deep tradition of scholarship, the broad educational resources of a great University,
and the professional and cultural enrichment of a metropolitan center,
the Law School continues to educate its students for the broad responsibilities and demands of the legal profession and the service of its ideals.
II

�". . . these noble buildings, designed for
one of the noblest uses to which any
building can be put-the teaching of law."

-Sir William Searle Holdsworth,
at the dedication of the
Law School buildings, Jun e 16, 1927.

THE
LAW
SCHOOL
Unlike the physical sciences, legal learning requires no elaborate
apparatus. The study of law is the study of ideas, and history teaches
that ideas may be born in the most adverse material circumstances. More
important than stone and mortar are the traditions and the spirit whi~h
give life to the school and inspire its students and teachers.
For the serious student, however, a stimulating and congenial environment makes a unique contribution to the educational process. Professional training of the highest order requires more than a comprehensive
library and classrooms designed for effective teaching. There must be
places for reflection and concentration. There must be arrangements
conducive to informal interchange of thought and opinion between
student and student, and between student and teacher. The atmosphere
should imbue the student of law with an appreciation for the ancient
traditions of the bar and for the professional heritage he will share.

LOCATION
The Law School is situated on the shore of Lake Michigan near the
center of Chicago. To the south, along the lake front, lie Grant Park,
a series of yacht basins, recreational facilities, museums of art and
natural history, a planetarium, and an aquarium. To the north extends
the noted Gold Coast, an area of fashionable residential apartments
separated from the lake by a continuous series of parks, beaches, golf
12

�courses, and boating facilities. Near by, to the west, is one of the city's
centers of art and entertainment. A half-mile to the southwest is the
Chicago Loop, the central business and shopping area, and the legal
and financial center of the region. Here are located the buildings housing
the offices of federal, state, and municipal government. In close proximity
to the Law School, convenient for student visits and observation, are
trial and appellate courts of both the state and federal governments,
ranging from the local small claims courts to the United States Court of
Appeals.
Situated in the stimulating intellectual climate of the metropolitan
center, the Law School enjoys unexcelled opportunities for laboratory
study of the law in action and benefits in addition from the ready
availability of outstanding specialists in every branch of the law. Frequent lectures, specialized courses, and supplementary class participation
by leading jurists, practitioners, and public officials enrich the basic
instruction.

PROFESSIONAL CAMPUS
The Law School constitutes part of the self-contained professional
campus of orthwestern University. Surrounding the Law School are
the separate buildings of the Graduate School of Business Administration
and the Medical and Dental Schools. Also on the campus are Thorne
Hall, an auditorium available for m ajor convocations a nd ceremonies,
and Abbott Hall, the 18-floor student residence for the men and women
enrolled in these graduate schools, with dining rooms, cafeteria, fountain,
lounges, bowling alleys and other athletic facili ties, and accessory shops
and services.
Living and studying in a self-sufficient graduate campus, the law
student broadens his perspective through contact with professional students in other disciplines but remains free from the distractions of
undergradua te life. Twelve miles north, on the original campus of the
University in suburban Evanston, the main body of undergraduate
students and about 1,500 graduate students are enrolled. This wooded,
la keside campus is read ily accessible to Law School students for cultural
events and intercollegiate athletics.
Physically autonomous, the Law School resembles a small college,
with the benefits of a cohesive academic community. As part of a great
University, it enjoys as well the resources and vitality of a broad range
of learning. Outstanding professors from other schools and departments
participate in Law School instruction, to make available the contributions of economics, psychiatry, sociology, political scie nce, and a variety
of other disciplines in the understanding and solution of the problems
of human behavior which are the province of law.
13

�Bounded by the waters of L ake Michigan immediately to the east
and by the surrounding campus, the Law School stands as an academic
preserve in the heart of a metropolis, enjoying the benefits of a ce ntral
site with few of its disadvantages .

LAW SCHOOL BUILDINGS
The Law School itself consists of a complex of buildings, functionally
integrated and arranged to form a quadrangle occupying the block
between Chicago Avenue and Superior Street. The original buildings,
Levy Mayer H all a nd the Elbert H. Gary Library, were completed in
1926. Robert R. McCormick Hall and the Owen L. Coon Library, also
named for alumni of the School, were completed in 1960. The fou r
buildings present a h armonious exterior, all constructed of limestone in
a modified Gothic design reminiscent of the historic structures of English
law. The quadrangle completely encloses the Law School garden.
Bordered by cloistered arcades, the garden, with its hedge-lined walks,
shaded corners, and sto ne benches, is a favored retreat for students and
faculty in spring and a utumn months.
In interior design and ornament, the older buildings of the Law
School are rich in the lore of the law. Medallions, seals, a nd shields in
legal motifs decorate the oak-paHeled walls and corridors, and stainedglass designs accen t the windows, linking the student with the past of
the profession. Some 2,500 portraits, engravings, etchings, and photographs, collected by the late Dean John H. Wigmore in the U nited
States, England, and the Continent, are hung about the School to illustrate the m en and events of the law, throughout history and throughout
the world. T he atmosph ere is blended in the newer buildings with the
clean lines of modern functionalism. Both libraries and Robert R .
McCormick Hall are completely air-conditioned .
CLASSROOMS
The Law School contains seven major classrooms. These generous
facilities make it possible to schedule a number of classes at the same
time, reducing the number of studen ts in each class meeting. The classes
are divided into sections for all work of the first year and for most
courses during the second year. As a consequen ce, the number of
students atte ndin g a class seldom exceeds 75 a nd is often much smaller.
Such classes, small by general law sch ool stand ards, encourage responsible
participation by each student in the probing, a nalytical discussion that
is th e mark of legal education at Northwestern.
In each classroom the student is provided with a continuou s tabledesk or with a free-standing oak desk for his course m a terials a nd notebooks. In most of the rooms the stude nt desks are elevated in tiers a nd
14

�surround the instructor's desk in amp hitheatre style, facilitating communications, in both directions, betwee n student a nd teach er. The
three newer classrooms are equ ipped for the use 0£ audio-visu al aids.
Lincoln Hall, the largest classroom, was modeled after the British House
of Commons in dimensions and seating a rrangem ent. It is used principall y for major extra curricul ar lectures, public conferences, and student
assemblies .

SEMINAR ROOMS
For in struction a t a more advanced and individualized leve l, the
Law School buildings provide six seminar rooms. Here sma ll groups
of students, typically from eight to 20, are seated a t a single large table
with a facu lty member for a n informal a nd detailed a nalysis of problem
areas lyi ng at the frontiers of legal development. In such stud y, the
student n ecessarily bears a large m easure of responsibility for g iving
direction and substan ce to the discussio n.
Notable amoflg the seminar rooms 0£ the School is the Wigmore
Room, named for the former dean and furnished with memorab ili a of
his distinguish ed career. Installed in a concealed portion of the room
are the Wigmore chimes, a uniqu e mus ical machine th a t plays "The
Counsellor's Chorus," the Law Schoo l song composed b y Dea n Wigmore
himself. MacChesney Hall, in the n ewer building, is h a ndsome ly fur-

�nished with a table 35 feet in length and richly upholstered chairs. The
Williams Room, renovated and refurnished in 1961, is similiarly appointed. Two other seminar rooms are situated above the library overlooking the lake, and are adjoined by roof balconies offering a welcome
respite on pleasant days.

COURTROOM
For practice and instruction in the arts of advocacy, the School has
a fully equipped modern courtroom, complete with witness stand, jury
box, counsel tables, and seating for spectators. Of striking modern design, the Getz Courtroom is used both for practice trials and for the
argument of mock appeals.

LIBRARY
The indispensable instruments of the lawyer's calling are books, and
a comprehensive and well-arranged library is essential to effective training for the profession. The library, with its associated research facilities,
is the heart of the Law School.
The Northwestern Law School library consists of two buildings, integrated physically and administered as a unit, the Elbert H. Gary Library
and the Owen L. Coon Library. In combination, the library occupies a
full side of the Law School quadrangle extending from Chicago Avenue
to Superior Street, and includes four floors of working area. The constantly growing collection contains some 200,000 volumes, is among the six
largest law school libraries in the western world, and constitutes the
largest legal collection in the Chicago area.
More important than sheer size, however, is the utility of the collection. The main reading room of the library occupies the highest floor
of the building, and is divided by shelved partitions into dozens of
secl1,1ded but well-lighted alcoves fitted with large working tables and
chairs, to provide convenient accommodations close by the books. The
arrangement is repeated on the lower floors, with the addition of a number of individual carrells for sustained and concentrated research. The
working spaces have a seating capacity nearly equal to the total enrollment of of the School. Included on a lower level are glass-walled typing
areas, with individual sound-proof carrells open to any student who may
wish to type a research paper or to re-organize his course notes.
The library is operated under an open-stack policy, to bring readers
and books together without unnecessary formalities. The student is free
to browse and to search at will through the collection, and may call upon
either the expert full-time staff of 16 or the I 8 assistants if he is in need
of guidance, aid, or suggestions. The library is open daily throughout
the year, and in the evenings as well whenever the School is in session.
16

�To free the general collection from the heavy demands of faculty scholarship, a separate working collection is maintained for faculty use.
The course of instruction has been designed to encourage the use of
these library resources, and to assure that each student will be capable of
independent and scholarly legal research. In a required course in the
first term of his legal education, the student receives individual instruction in the techniques of assembling and using the varied materials of
research in the law, from the most ancient reports to the latest modern
developments. During the remainder of his studies, he accumulates
experience and develops his powers of perceptive, resourceful research
through work in moot court, supplementary course studies, research in
advanced seminars, and the preparation of articles and papers for the
School's legal publications.
The library's collection includes substantially all the reported decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and territories,
Great Britain and the Commonwealth, together with their statutes and
session laws, and subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, textbooks, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary to form a
complete working collection for every legal system in the English Ian-

�guage. This Anglo-American collection is supplemented by a selection
of works in the fields of history, economics, government, and the other
social and behavioral sciences. The library also receives every current
legal periodical of general interest printed in the English language.
More than one-third of the total collection is made up of works in the
fields of foreign and international law. The comprehensive materials
in foreign law include the codes, treatises, decisions, and journals of all
major European countries and Japan, and good working collections in
Latin-American law. Furthering its forward-looking policies, the library
began at an early date to build a complete collection in the law of nations, going beyond the domestic laws of the separate countries to emphasize the rules of law controlling their relations with each other. The
large collection of treatises and periodicals in international law is supplemented by many treaties and diplomatic documents, and the whole permits original and useful work to be carried on in the field of public international law.
Holdings in other specialized fields include a comprehensive collection of treatises, periodicals, and documents in criminal law and its
administration, and a special collection of materials in aeronautics, including aviation law, commerce, and other works in the field exclusive
of technical engineering publications. In addition, the library includes
outstanding collections of medieval law, jurisprudence, legal history,
and comparative law, and valuable resources in Roman law.
The Law School library is independent in administration and organization, but its comprehensive sources are supplemented in specialized
areas through inter-library loans and other cooperative arrangements
with the general University library, departmental libraries, and the major
public, educational, and legal collections in the region.
A special feature of the library is its distinguished rare book collection, housed in the handsome Hardy Scholars Treasure Room adjoining
the main reading room. These early volumes, numbering some 2,500,
h ave been acquired through the years and represent a variety of fields.
Many are first editions of the classics of the law, including a number of
manuscripts and incunabula, that is, books printed before 1500. A
number are unique, or the only copies in the western hemisphere. The
value of these books is not primarily antiquarian, however. They have
been gathered and selected because they are indispensable for effective
legal research in areas that may be vital both to scholars and practitioners.
Although the reserve facilities of the library have been constructed
with foresight to accommodate an eventual collection twice the size of
the current holdings, provision has also been made for the use of the
materials of legal research of the future. A section of the library is fully
fitted with the basic equipment for the use of micro-film and micro-cards,
18

�designed to replace conventional books and to ameliorate their problems
of bulk and deterioration.
As the practitioner of a learned profession, the lawyer is more than
a craftsman. To encourage a wide-ranging interest among the students,
a section of the main reading room has been set aside for casual reading
in fields of current or general significance. Comfortably furnished, the
browsing area offers current periodicals as well as a broad selection of
biographical and miscellaneous works.

STUDENT FACILITIES
In informal give-and-take discussion with his fellows, the student
lawyer develops his powers of analysis and expression. To foster these
close student relationships that have marked the best in legal education
since the profession's beginnings, the Law School has set aside a substantial share of its facilities for student use. Lounges are provided on each
of the four floors of Levy Mayer Hall for short periods of study or relaxation before class. Lowden Hall, named for the first of the School's alumni
to serve as governor of Illinois, is the principal student lounge and is
rich with reminders of the history of law and the Law School. Its equipment and comfortable furnishings include a fireplace and, for lighter
moments, a piano. On the lower level, adjacent to the locker area, are
dispensers of coffee, milk, soft drinks, and snacks, and a room equipped
with tables for a coffee break or light luncheon.
A unique feature of the Law School is the fourth-floor study area.
Here some eight rooms are devoted exclusively to student use for informal
review sessions or individual study. Each room is supplied with reading
tables or desks, chairs, and high-backed benches to accommodate from
four to ten students. These rooms are open and available to all students
while the School is in session.
Separate offices are furnished for the various co-curricular activities
conducted under student auspices and control. The officers of the Junior
Bar Association and the staff of the Law Review, the R eporter, the Student Book Exchange, and candidates for the S.J.D. degree enjoy the benefit of private offices.

FACULTY OFFICES
In keeping with long-standing tradition at the Law School, faculty
members are readily available to individual students for questions and
conferences. The tradition is physically embodied in the Law School
buildings, where each faculty office opens directly onto the main corridors for access without formalities or intermediaries. The arrangment
leads to frequent and fruitful contact between student and teacher.
19

�"[Here the] teaching will . . . give men
what they want to know when they go out
to fight, but . .. it will send them forth
with a pennon as well as with a sword,
to keep before their eyes 'in the long
battle the little flutter that means ideals,
honor, yes, even romance, in all the dull
details."

COURSE

Law School buildings, October 20, 1902.

OF

INSTRUCTION
The purpose of the Law School is to prepare its graduates for effective service in all fields of law. The course of instruction has been organized, through experience, experiment, and analysis, to offer legal
education of the highest order, to qualify men and women not only for
the private practice of the profession but for careers in government
service, in the fields of commerce and finance, and in legal education as
well. The program is designed to provide a broad training in the techniques of the law and an understanding of its institutions, to the end
that the graduate will be equipped for practice in any legal system based
upon the foundations of Anglo-American law. The curriculum does
not concentrate upon imparting a knowledge of the legal rules applicable in any one jurisdiction or region. Rather, it concentrates upon the
development of the fundamental capacities and skills of the lawyer.
Human activity is infinitely varied and ever changing. Law, bringing
order and direction to the relations of men, involves a continuous process
of growth and adjustment. Every legal problem and each case that comes
to the lawyer is, in a sense, unique. Effective professional education must
therefore prepare the student to deal with situations never before encountered, to direct the resources of the law to new fields of human
endeavor, and to handle not the problems of the past but the cases of
the future.
20

�Reflening this objective, the program of instruction in the Law
School differs markedly from the usual undergraduate instruction. It requires, of course, diligence and effort for a mastery of the formal materials of the course. Beyond this foundation, the instruction demands
thought and initiative of the individual student, to extend his learning
beyond the limits of the materials and to stretch his powers of analysis.
As the lawyer must deal with new situations throughout his professional
life, so the student lawyer is taught to transcend rote learning and to
find his way in unfamiliar contexts. The result is an intellectual challenge that is both rewarding and stimulating. The individual student is
spurred to go as far as his mind and industry will carry him.
CLASSES

The law student typically attends classes for 15 or 16 hours during
the course of the Law School's five-day week. Class meetings are scheduled throughout the morning and afternoon to break the pace and to
permit the student to review his preparation during open hours before
class. Two or three times as many hours are devoted to individual study
as are spent in class. Time spent in valuable activities and independent
research must be added to the requirements of course work. The study
of law, therefore, is a full-time occupation.
In a typical Law School term, the student's class attendance will be
distributed among four or five courses. Some of the subjects represent
ancient categories of the law. Course titles such as Criminal Law, Property, Contracts, and Torts go back, as separate topics, to the days of Lord
Coke or Blackstone. But life has changed since those early days in the
law, and even these traditional subjects have altered substantially in content. Today in Torts the focus is on such disparate objects as the automobile and the atom, and upon the legal problem each presents to an
energized society. Property law today concerns itself not only with ancient learning but as well with such topics as urban renewal and air
r ights . Criminal Law more and more is concerned with psychiatry, the
causes of crime, and modern correctional theories. The law of Contracts
today finds itself dealing with rocket construction.

�The changing character of law is reflected in the content of traditional courses, altered to keep pace with a changing society. It is reflected
too in the newer courses introduced by the Law School into the law
curriculum to deal with emerging areas of legal service. The lawyer is a
full-time student for only one period in his professional life. Within the
limits of the possible, he must be educated in that brief span for the responsibilities of the legal profession, not just for the day, but for the half
century of lawyer's work that lies ahead. So it is that Labor Relations,
Taxation, Administrative Law, Civil Rights, and Trade Relations were
introduced into the basic program of the Law School during the formative years of those subjects, anticipating the current recognition of their
significance. Courses and seminars in International Law, Scientific Evidence, Comparative Law, and International Business Transactions illustrate the fashion in which a dynamic law school today shapes its instructional program to meet the needs of the profession for the years to come.

THE THREE-YEAR CURRICULUM
In the last century, Northwestern was among the first of the nation's
law schools to re~uire three years of study for a degree in law, setting the
norm in legal education. Beginning students enter the Law School in
September and attend the two semesters of the regular academic year for
three years. By attending optional summer sessions, however, students
m ay earn their degrees in 28 months.
During his first year of law study, the student follows a prescribed
course designed to provide an understanding of basic legal principles and
concepts, and to give a solid grounding in the fundamentals indispensable for all branches of the profession. Here the student encounters the
grand divisions of private law- Property, Tort, and Contract-as well as
Constitutional Law and Criminal Law. In the first term, the members
of the first-year class are taught the use of legal research materials and
throughout the year are given individual instruction in legal writing. A
senior faculty member is designated as advisor for each entering student
to aid in the adjustment to legal education and to assist in pa rticular
problems or difficulties.
Some opportunity for elective courses and seminars appears in the
second-year curriculum, and the widest choice is afforded in the third
year. The student, however, does not normally "specialize" in the course
of the law school career.
The student who hopes to become a corporation lawyer, or a criminal
lawyer, or a tax lawyer will, for the most part, follow the same basic
course of study others are pursuing. The aspiring tax lawyer's program
will only be a course or two heavier in the tax field than that of his com22

�panion who expects to go into corporate practice with a large city firm
or another who plans to return to a small town for general practice. A
broad base in fundamentals is necessary in every field, and intelligent
choice can be made only from a general familiarity with the available
fields. Lawyers quite regularly turn up in posts of responsibility neither
they nor their law school faculties envisioned. The wide range of electives offered by the Law School permits a modest degree of specialization
but, more significantly, allows the student to follow the bent of his personal interests and to sample a variety of problems in the law.
In the second and third years, courses are frequently arranged so that
the student will examine related fields of law at the same time and be
made aware of their interrelations. An example of this functional integration of related courses is afforded by the seminar in Law and the
Industrial Society, in which the economic, political, and legal problems
of policy common to the fields of Corporations, Labor Relations, and
Trade Relations are studied and discussed in group meetings.
Problems of law, especially those dealt with in advanced courses, are
often involved with problems of business and government. In recognition
of these ties, materials from other disciplines are integrated with legal
studies, and special lecturers are drawn not only from among the specialists in the profession and the faculties of their departments of the University, but from the business community and government as well.

It is in the advanced courses principally that the student is offered the
opportunity to explore the frontiers of the law and to work in close
cooperation with the members of the faculty. Small classes and frequent
individual conferences on research papers bring student and teacher into
rewarding personal relationships. In addition, a number of upperclassmen are chosen annually to serve as research assistants to the faculty, each
assigned personally to a professor to aid in scholarly activities.

FACULTY
The basic instruction in the Law School program is conducted by the
full-time resident faculty, who take teaching as their first responsibility.
Each member is experienced in private practice and a number have
served in responsible government posts as well. Many are called upon
for consultation and advice by government agencies and private groups,
and are active in the organizations and affairs of the legal profession.
Their scholarly activities include the delivery of lectures and addresses
before legal and public bodies as well as the preparation of learned
treatises and articles. Such activities serve to complement and to enrich
the instruction . The casebooks and other teaching materials for a majority of the courses offered in the School were prepared by the teachers
23

�who conduct the classes, and many are widely used, standard works in
their respective fields.
Four Teaching Associates are appointed annually to assist in the
educational program of the School. These faculty members, chosen from
the outstanding recent graduates of American and British law schools,
instruct the first-year students on a tutorial and individual basis in the
techniques of legal writing, research, and oral argument; they work closely
with the entering students in smaller groups.

THE METHODS OF INSTRUCTION
In recognition of the lawyer's function of articulating the conflicting
interests of society, instruction in modern law schools is conducted principally through participation by the class. No longer does the student
lawyer listen passively in a lecture audience. To maximize the educational benefits of active participation, Northwestern Law School has
adopted a curricular policy emphasizing instruction through relatively
small classes and seminars. First-year courses enrolling 150 students or
more have no place in the Law School program. The entering student
will find himself attending classes with a group of less than half that size.
Seminars are limited in enrollment, and commonly range in size from
six or eight to 15 or 20 students. Instruction of this kind requires a low
student-faculty ratio. The program of the School is based upon the conviction that this concentration of educational resources upon the individual student is most effective in developing the skills that distinguish
the legal profession.
The methods of instruction in the Law School vary from course to
course, in response to the nature of the subject matter, the role assigned
to the course in the total training of the lawyer, and the teaching philosophy of the instructor. For descriptive purposes, instructional methods
may be grouped in four general categories.

THE CASE METHOD
The case method of teaching, employed principally in the first two years of study, is founded upon the premise that
the first objective of law training is to develop an understanding on the
part of the student of how and why the courts decide cases as they do.
The method was adopted at the Law School in the earliest years of its
evolution. The materials of study are the actual decisions of courts,
embodied in written opinions rendered in real and disputed cases, rather
than a textbook compendium of legal rules. The cases themselves are the
specimens of legal controversy to be examined and dissected. The student
is brought to the level of a participant in the proceeding, analyzing each
stage in the course of litigation and each step in the process of decision .
24

�Casebooks and treatises by members of the Law School faculty constitute
basic materials of instruction .

Through painstaking scrutiny of a large number of cases, the student
shares, vicariously, the experience of the lawyers and judges who conducted them, and thereby gains an understanding of the judicial process
based on observation of the law in action at first hand.
Although the case method varies, in its use, with the approach of the
professor, the teaching styles grouped under this heading have certain
characteristic elements in common.
Under the case system, it is essential that students prepare thoroughly
and intensively before class. The course materials for this preparation
consist of a casebook, a collection of actual decisions in related kinds of
controversy. The student at Northwestern will find that the authors of
many of his casebooks are his own professors, authorities in their respective fields. The class session in a case-taught course typically will not
offer a lecture but rather a discussion of several of these cases, conducted
in the manner of a Socratic dialogue between the teacher and students.
Questions are designed to test the student's understanding of the case,
to identify the considerations that controlled the decision, and to probe
its implications for similar situations and its relation to other decisions.
The discussion is conducted in an atmosphere of unrelenting questioning of each idea presented, by both fellow students and instructor.
Through the guidance of provocative questions, the students develop a
healthy skepticism, a capacity for independent critical judgment, and
a tough-minded approach to legal materials.
Although the professor may upon occasion depart from the interrogating role to explain the background of a legal problem or to give
25

�direction to the class discussion, the essence of the case method is the
collective probing and searching, the crucible of give and take in which
the student's own powers of reason and analysis are tempered and developed. The system is in fact designed to cast back to the student, with
the benefit of group discussion, the task of developing for himself an
understanding, first, of what courts and administrative agencies do and
why they do it, and, second, of how to participate effectively in the
process. From the outset of his law school career, the student is thus led
to do what he will do throughout his professional life-to think, to
analyze, and to decide on his own initiative.
With their interplay of ideas and clash of opinion, class sessions are
seldom dull. Since the significant formulation in the progress of the discussion may well come from a fellow student, and since any student may
be drawn into the discussion at any time, alertness and concentrated
attention is required of all. With collective thought focused on the problem provided or suggested by the case, there are times when minds
stretch and their reach even may be extended. The mainstay of the firstyear curriculum, the case method of teaching is withal a singularly
exciting and stimulating intellectual experience for the beginning law
student.

THE PROBLEM METHOD
The problem method, an instructional technique originated at the L aw School and increasingly employed
throughout legal education, is used in many second- and third-year
courses. Here the emphasis is not upon the cases or administrative decisions as such. The focus of the student's work and of the class session is
rather a set of facts raising legal problems for which there may indeed be
no authoritative solution. The student's task is to take the available
materials in the forms of decisions, statutes, and administrative rulings
and t0 construct or create his own solution to the problem.
Perhaps the problem is set at the stage where the businessman asks
for advice on a proposed transaction . Perhaps the transaction has already
taken place and the problem concerns the consequences to be attached
to the transaction by the federal or state government by way of taxation
or regulation. In short, the problems are much like those which come to
the lawyer in actual practice, and in fact the problems are frequently
drawn from life. Consultative practice by some members of the faculty
and the generally close relationship between the School and the practicing profession combine to provide the student in a problem-method
course with an experience that closely approximates the practice of law.
Characteristically, in a course taught by this method, the student submits, before the class session, a short memorandum solution to the problem, based on his analysis of relevant source material. In the class ses26

�sion he, or one of his fellow students, will be invited to explain the legal
issues presented by the problem situation and the views he takes of those
issues. Discussion, often vigorous, follows.
Sometimes a particular decision or statute may relate directly to the
problem, and at times the class session may be devoted to the examination of a leading case and its relevance to the problem assigned. At other
times the problem may fall in an area where the legal landmarks are
few, and the imaginative use of statutory materials and administrative
regulations is required. Nor are the problem sessions merely exercises
in developing the technical skills of the lawyer in marshalling and utilizing available legal materials in the solution of particular problems.
Often the specific, concrete problem supplies the perspective in which
basic questions of social policy, of the why and how of the development
of the law, can be considered in meaningful context.

SEMINARS
Opportunities are offered in the second a nd third years
for seminar work in a variety of fields. Here the student is free to select
subjects of special interest to him, and to explore new areas of the law.
In a group numbering from eight to 20, with the guidance of a senior
faculty member, the student will engage in intensive individual work on
some aspect of the general subject embraced by the seminar. It is in the
seminars that research on the frontiers of the law is most commonly
undertaken. Emerging areas of policy where the resources of the law may
contribute include, for example, the control of atomic energy, urban
renewal, extending equal protection of the laws into various aspects of
national life, and the peaceful settlement of international disputes. And
it is in seminar work that the law student will be expected to cut across
the o.isciplines and to bring to the law additional material from such
fields as economics, sociology, psychiatry, and political science. Experts
in such disciplines frequently participate in seminar meetings.
Often the seminar student writes a major paper and presents this
product of his own research for the critical consideration of the seminar
group. With the stimulus of special interest in the subject matter and the
spur of friendly criticism from interested fellow students in prospect,
significant legal research is done in the seminars. Some of the papers
are printed in the professional journals published by the Law School,
and research done in the seminar program has on occasion been favorably
noticed in the opinions of some of the highest courts.
PRACTICE COURSES
One hundred and fifty years ago there were
no American law schools and the aspiring attorney prepared himself by
working in the office of an established lawyer, observing the practice of
law, and learning through trial and error the arts and skills of the profes27

�sion. The advantages of such trammg are preserved today, within a
systematic curriculum for post-graduate study, in the practice courses
offered throughout the three years of the student's formal legal education.
In these courses, the student actually practices in skills that the practicing attorney is called upon to employ, and he learns, through experience and through exercising his own powers, the job of the lawyer.
In addition to the elements of actual practice presented in every
course offered by the Law School, instruction through practice is the
specific object of a number of courses. Prominent among these is the
course known as Legal Clinic. In 1910, Northwestern introduced to legal
education the idea of giving law students actual experience in practice
by providing legal services for the poor. Under this program, law students, during the last h alf of their training, serve in the Clinic under the
supervision of a faculty member appointed for the purpose. The Clinic
handles all kinds of civil cases, and the student may consult with clients,
interview witnesses, prepare p leadings and other instruments, appear in
court, and assist in the conduct of trials. The training fi lls a function
similar in many respects to that of the internship in medical education.
During his first year, the student is instructed in the techniques of
oral and written argument in the course in foot Court. Practicing the
lawyer's skills, he is required to prepare a written brief in compliance
with prevailing professional standards, and to argue his case, opposed by
a fellow student, under courtroom conditions before a court composed
of prominent alumni and faculty members. This instruction is continued on a voluntary basis in the second year.
In the third year, the student is offered a choice of practice courses in
the trial of a lawsuit from its beginning to encl. The instruction provides
the student with actual experience in examining witnesses, presenting
evidence, arguing to a jury, and the like. The student thus learns by
doing, not merely by precept, what the trial lawyer must be ab le to do.
Most of the lawyer's practice is carried on in his office, not in the
courtroom . To prepare its graduates for the work of counseling, advising, and planning, the Law School offers a number of practice courses in
which the student is called upon to draw the legal instruments and documents which the practicing attorney must be able to prepare. In the first
year, the student is assigned office memoranda on legal problems, under
individual supervision. As an upperclassman , he may select practice
courses in such fields as the drafting of wills and the planning of personal
estates, or the drafting of laws and legislative documents.

REQUIRED COURSES
For a student to be recommended for the degree of Juris Doctor or
Bachelor of Laws, successful completion of the courses prescribed for the
28

�first and second years is normally required. In addition , he must satisfy
the following requirements: a minimum of two hours of seminar work
(involving substantial individual research and writing) exclusive of participation in the Law R eview Seminar; one hour of Legal Clinic (except
for members of the Law R eview Board); one hour of Accounting (except
for students with at least three semester-hours of college credit in that subject); the course in Professional Responsibility; and at least one course or
seminar in International Law. Although the faculty may change the requirements for gradu a tion a t an y time, this responsibility will not be exercised so as to place an undue burden upon any enrolled student who has
planned hi s program on the b asis of prev iously announced requirements.

LIMITATIONS OF WORK
Courses totaling 16 credit-hours in a ny term, in the opinion of the
faculty, represent the m aximum amount of work which a good student
can do effectively under favorable conditions. A student who is under
a ny serious handicap, su ch as a physical disability, the n ecessity of earning part of his expenses, or commuting for long distances, should reduce
his program. A student m ay be limited in his registration if, in the
opinion of the Dean, he cannot undertake a full schedule with a prospect
of su ccess.
LIMITED ENROLLMENT
The seminars and the courses in Trial Technique a nd Trial Practice
are limited in enrollment. The School cannot assure that all students
wishing to enroll in a p art icular seminar, Trial Technique, or Trial
Prac ti ce can be accommodated.

SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAMS
In the total educational program of the Law School, the formal course work
within the curriculum is supplemented by a variety of additional offerings. Lectures by distinguished scholars, jurists, and statesmen from the United States
and abroad serve as cultural adjuncts to the regular courses and emphasize the
broader public obligations of the profession. In recognition of the Law School's
role in the life of the profession, the community, and the nation, conferences
are held which bring together leaders of thought and action for discussion of
subjects of major public importance. Through participation in these programs,
the student broadens his vision and develops the sense of public responsibility
which characterizes the highest traditions of the bar.
Many of these curricular supplements are presented by the Law School as an
integral part of the general educational program, upon an occasional basis and
without special sponsorship. Others are offered as part of established and continuing programs within the School. The most notable of these established
programs are described below.

criminal justice. In addition to the long esta blished program for prosecuting
attorneys, separate courses and conferences are cond ucted for defe nse lawyers in
criminal cases, for newsmen , for criminal court judges and legislators, and for
high-ranking police and Jaw enforcement officials.

THE PROGRAM OF INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES
In 1957 the Ford Foundation awarded $200,000 to the Law School for the
expansion of its program in International Legal Studies. The School's early
interest in the field is manifested by its substantial and seasoned library collections in foreign a nd international Jaw, and by its long-s tanding requirement
that each student pursue some international studies. In furth era nce of its program, the School has offered seminars in International Business Transactions,
International Organization, Comparative Law, Admiralty, and Civil Liberties
on a comparative basis, and a course in Family Law, with emphasis on comparative materials.
The funds of the grant are used for additional faculty and for visiting
foreign professors, and they support grad uate fellowships for foreign lawyers
and students. Other portions of the funds are devoted to work-semtnars and
conferences in the field of int€rnational law.

THE
STUDENT
BODY
A well-seasoned aphorism, familiar to law students everywhere, says
that a law student receives his education from _h is classmates. Like many
an old saw, the observation contains within its exaggeration a kernel of
truth. Law school instruction is built upon student participation. Beyond the classroom, the student continues his professional preparation in
give-and-take discussion, corridor debate, and friendly argument with
his fe llows. The vitality of the Law School is measured by the quality
and vigor of its student body.
At Northwestern, the entering student finds himself a member of a
close-knit community of men and women, bound together by a common
pursuit and by the rich traditions of the Law School's history. The student body is comparatively small, seldom exceeding 400 students, thus
facilitating wide acquain tance among the students. For purposes of instruction, the classes are divided into sections, further guarding the individua l from being submerged in the mass.
The beginner himself will have been carefully chosen through a
policy of selective admission designed to assure that every member of the
class is capa-ble of legal study at the highest and most challenging level.
His classmates will be high-ranking graduates of the leading colleges and
48

�universities in the U nited States and abroad. In a spirit of h ealthy competition, the student realizes his own full capacities in keeping pace with
his fellows.
Students benefit from friendly relationships with fellow students coming from a wide variety of b ackgrounds . The typ ical student body consists of men and women from some 30 states and eight or 10 foreign
countries. More than 100 colleges and universities are represented by
graduates enrolled in the Law School (see p. 83). A variety of undergraduate majors are included, and many students h ave earned graduate
degrees in other fields before entering the Law School.
Law students as a whole tend to be individua listic and venturesome,
and a broad range of opinion and experience is encompassed in the
student body. The stimulating contacts of student life at the L aw School
combine to develop a mature, tolerant, and broadened outlook in the
individual student.

LEGAL PUBLICATIONS
Foremost among the Law School's student activities is the publication
of the Northwestern University Law R ev iew, one of the nation's leading
professional journals. The Review is circulated widely among lawyers
and judges, and is often cited in briefs and judicial opinions. The tradition in the legal world of professional journals being accepted as
authoritative within the profession, although writteR, edited, and published by men who have not yet achieved professional status, is unique
among the professions. Work on the Law Review is at once the most
demanding and rewarding experience available to the law student.
A law journal entitled the Northwestern Law R eview was first established by students of the school during the academic year 1892-93, within
five years of the appearance of the first student journal in the nation .
Publication was continued in 1906, after a 10-year suspension, under the
title the Illinois Law R eview.
For a period beginning in 1924 editorship was shared with the law
schools of the University of Chicago and the University of Illinois. In
1932, Northwestern students resumed full control a nd in 1952 the name
was changed to the Nor thwestern University Law R eview.
At the beginning of their second year students of highest scholastic
standing are chosen to write commentary on legal problems for publication and to carry on the research, editing, and related work of the R eview.
Selection is one of the highest honors and greatest responsibilities the
Law School can bestow. The work of the Law R eview is so integrated
with the instructional program of the School that participation is normally a requisite for election to the Order of the Coif. Because of their
rich educational experience and resulting excellent qualification for
49

�any field of the profession, Law R eview editors are sought a nd preferred
after graduation by leading law firms , government, a nd private business.
The fact that the student body is not large mea ns tha t at Northwestern
the opportunities for Law R eview participation are somewhat broader
than in other schools.
Although Law R eview students work hard, they take one day off each
spri ng to play a softball game with the faculty and to hold a dinner
where the principal sport is carica turing the foibles of their professors.
Th e Journal of Criminal Law, Criminology and Police Science.Products of student scholarship also are publish ed in the Journal of
Crimina l Law, Criminology and Police Scien ce. The Journal, first in its
field, with a world-wide cir culation, has been published continuously by
the School since 1910. The editor-in-chief is Claude R . Sowle, Ass istant
Dean a nd Associate Professor of Law, Northwestern U niversity. H e is
assis ted by Gresham M. Sykes, Professor of Sociology, D artmouth U niversity, who serves as C riminology Editor, and a board of Associate Editors composed of legal scholars a nd criminologists. The section on Police
Science is under the editorship of Mr. Ordway Hilton, an examiner of
questioned documents in New York C ity, assisted b y a board of Assoc iate
Ed itors in the fields of criminali stics, police administration, and legal
medicine. Professor Fred E. Inbau of the Law School faculty is the Managing Director. The Journal is published quarterl y.
Student comments and papers prepared in the seminars relating to
crimi nal law or in individual study are published regularly in the
Journal . In combination with the Law R eview, the Journa l offers to
students in the Law School a dual opportunity for intensive experience
in legal scholarship and for contribution to eminent professional journals.

MOOT COURT COMPETITIO
To provide continuing practice and instruction in the arts of appellate advocacy, the first-year course in Moot Court is supplemented by a
voluntary program co nducted for adva nced students in the School. The
program is supervised and administered b y members of the faculty with
the ass istance of upperclassmen, and involves the prep:1-ration of app ellate court briefs and the presentation of oral argument before p a nels of
judges, practicing a ttorn eys, and faculty members. The cases typically
raise issues of current legal importance, more complex a nd ch allenging
tha n those assigned in the regular course. 'Winners of the Lowden-Wigmore Prize are chosen through compe tition, and the School's representatives for competing with oth er law schools in the National Moot Court
Compet ition are also chose n. The fin al argument is conducted before
the entire studen t body, cu stomarily with distingu ish ed judges from the
federal bench.

�STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY:
THE JUNIOR BAR ASSOCIATION
Law students are only a few short steps removed from the practice of
law. The qualities of personal integrity and responsibility essential in
the profession are best fostered not by exhortation but by actual exercise
and experience. In the belief that the most effective way to develop
maturity and responsibility among the students is to vest responsibility
in the students themselves, the Law School has conferred a large
measure of authority upon the students' professional organization, the
Junior Bar Association.
All students are members of the Association and through it work out
the problems of student government and School activities. Its declared
objects are to encourage and promote the highest standards of integrity
and industry, to the end that its members may be properly equipped to
enter the profession of the law. The officers and Board of Governors of
the Association are elected by the students themselves.
HONOR CODE
An important product of the Law School's philosophy of student responsibility is the Honor Code and the broad authority
granted to the students, through the Junior Bar Association, with respect
to its enforcement and implementation. The basic tenet of the Honor
Code is that the law student, like the lawyer, should be subject to unyielding standards of honorable conduct. In reliance upon the students'
collective sense of responsibility, Law School examinations are unmonitored and unsupervised by faculty, staff, or proctors. The Honor Code
imposes a strict obligation upon each student to report any apparent
infractions to the students constituting the Board of Governors of the
Association. After a full hearing, the Board has the duty to make findings
and to recommend appropriate disciplinary action to the faculty.
The Code covers not only the administration of examinations, but
also the submission of written papers and the conduct of a student generally in his law study and relations with the School. The student body
through its elected representatives in the Junior Bar Association further
has the authority to prescribe and enforce rules of conduct in and about
the Law School and to enforce the regulations governing the use of the
library. The intent is that habits of professional self-discipline should
be developed in the student, rather than imposed upon him by outward
authority.
STUDENT ACTIVITIES
The student body bears important responsibilities as well in the supplemental educational programs of the School.
The Junior Bar Association traditionally sponsors a series of frequent
lectures, bringing outstanding lawyers, judges, and political figures to
51

�the Law School to address the students on subj ects of general interest,
and continuing the liberal educa tion of the lawyer. Informal recep tions,
known as coffee hours, are h eld frequently in Lowden H all to afford the
student opportunities for social contact and casual co nversation with
members of the faculty and distinguished visitors to the School.
A wide variety of activities is carried on under student responsibility,
through the Junior Bar Association, to serve the needs and interests of
fellow students. The Association participates in an orientation program
for new students, assists them with registration, and arranges for a reception a nd small advisory meetings, all designed to welcome the beginner
a nd to ease the educational transition.
The Association operates an exchange for the purchase and sale of
used casebooks and course m a terials, supplementing the facilities of the
University Bookstore in Abbott Hall and helping students who must
economize.
To strengthen ties with former students and to inform the alumni of
developments at the School, the students also publish the Law School
R eporter, a magazine distributed to students and graduates three times
each year.
In recognition of the Law School's place in the legal profession at large,
the Northwestern Junior Bar Association is affiliated with the American
Law Student Association, the national organization of students in training for the law, sponsored by the American Bar Association. Professional
responsibilities are also recognized in cooperative research projects undertaken from time to time by the Northwestern Junior Bar Association and
the student Legal Research Staff in collaboration with the regular bar
associations. In working with committees of the local, state, and national
professional organizations, the students come to appreciate the bar's
broad public obligations and benefit from rewarding associations with
prominent lawyers. In sum, the varied range of opportunities afforded
to Law School students for service to their fellows, to the School, and to
the profession provides valuable training in the exercise of those responsibilities that distinguish the lawyer's calling as a profession.

RECREATION AND SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
The law student soon learns the truth of the old saying that "the law
is a jealous mistress." He will not be able to indulge extensively in
amusements or spend much time in social events. Nevertheless, no man
or woman can accomplish a maximum of work without a reasonable
amount of recreation.
Organized social activities at the Law School are sponsored by the
Junior Bar Association and by the several legal fraternities. In addition

lawyers become acquainted with the collective concerns of the
profession. (R ight) The annual Faculty-Law Review softba ll game

to the coffee hours, the Association holds a dance for all students once
each semester.
Chapters of three national legal fraternities-Phi Alpha Delta, Phi
Delta Phi, and Tau Epsilon Rho-and one legal sorority-Kappa Beta Pi
-have been established at the Law School. Members do not live nor eat
together and lines are not sharply drawn. The fraternities do, however,
arrange for a number of occasions which have professional as well as
recreational value. They hold numerous luncheons during the course of
the year with addresses by nationally and locally prominent lawyers,
judges, and public officials. And they sponsor frequent dances and in formal parties. None of these groups follows any discriminatory membership policy.
A program of intramural athletics involving the legal fraternities and
other groups on the campus offers participation in organized sports, and
nearby beaches, golf courses, and other facilities are available for individual recreation. Tickets are offered at reduced rates for the U niversity's intercollegiate athletic programs on the undergraduate campus in
Evanston.
Many opportunities for entertainment and cultural pursuits afforded
in a city such as Chicago are close at hand .

STUDENT WIVES
A useful auxiliary of the Junior Bar Association is the organization
of the wives of Law School students. A substantial minority of the student body is married.
53

�At the social gatherings of the Law Wives, the student's wife ca n visit
with faculty wives, discuss matters of common interest, and spend a
pleasant evening during her husband's long hours in the library. To help
her to understand the work that demands so much of her husband's time
and attention , the law wife may enjoy an informal talk by one of the
faculty members on the vicissitudes of law study or a legal problem of
general interest. Occasionally professors have conducted abbreviated
versions of their Law School courses for the student wives, to give them
a first-hand view of the educational process in which their husbands are
so deeply involved.

STUDENT RESIDENCE
Living and working together, law students gain advantages that are
significant if not readily apparent. Casual conversation as well as earnest
discussion contributes to the development of the prospective lawyer's
powers and personality. The stimulation and discipline students give
one another have an impact that is directly evident in the classroom.
The ancient ancestors of modern law schools, the English Inns of
Court, depended solely upon the influences of students' living, eating,
and arguing informally together to produce men of professio,nal qualification. For the student who resides in Abbott Hall, the Law School becomes the center of everyday life. The library and the classrooms are
accessible, the distractions of commuting are avoided, and the student
naturally and effortlessly concentrates his time and attention on preparing for the practice of law.
For these reasons, all law students except married students and those
whose homes are within easy commuting distance of the School are expected to live in Abbott Hall. It is designed to provide convenient and
attractive living quarters and to provide an atmosphere in which may be
developed all those qualities of personality which are so essential to a
lawyer, but which for the most part fall outside the sphere of formal
training.
The building, 18 stories high, overlooks Lake Michigan on Lake
Shore Drive from Huron to Superior Street. It is constructed of Indiana
limestone and conforms in architectural style to the classroom buildings
on the campus. The first two floors and the basement are given over to
common rooms for social and recreational purposes, the upper sixteen to
private accommodations. The first floor contains general offices and a
series of shops. On the second floor is a large student lounge, a fountaingrill, and two large dining rooms which offer cafeteria service. In addition there is a lounge and common living room on each of the upper
floors. Athletic facilities for bowling and ping-pong are available in the
basement.

also space reserved for women law students. Double study-bedrooms are
available. Rooms are equipped with desks of modern design, dressers,
and beds with inner-spring mattresses. All rooms are provided with
chairs, draperies, and lamps. Each room has a double closet. (Trunks are
stored in the baggage room in the basement.) Bed lin ens and blankets are
included in the furnishings, and 5½ day maid service is given ,
The cost of room and board in Abbott Hall is reasonable, and is below
the rates charged for other desirable accommodations in the same part of
the city. The location of rooms is indicated by the floor plan, opposite.
The attractive residents' Dining Hall on the second floor serves excellent food and is operated on a daily cash basis. A large selection of foods
is offered at moderate prices, three meals per day averaging from $2.75
to $3.50.

STUDENT HEALTH SERVICE
Through the Student H ealth Service of the University, students of the
Law School are furnished medical care and treatment. The facilities of
the several hospitals associated with the U niversity and situated on the
campus are available for confinement, and out-patient care and consultation are provided in the Medical School

THE
ACADEMIC
PROGRAM
The deepest traditions of the Law School are rooted in scholarship
and educational excellence. For more than a century, the Law
School has been devoted to improvement and innovation in legal education. Its graduates and faculty have numbered among the great teachers
and scholars of their times, a nd, as deans and faculty members in other
centers of legal learning, have shared and extended this dedication. The
academic program of the School today reflects and preserves the strong
tradition.

ADMISSION
Since its early years, the Law School has followed a policy of selective
admission to preserve its character as a cohesive academic community of
modest size and to assure continued educational standards of the highest
order. In consequence, the School is unable to accept many applicants
who are capable of successful completion of legal studies and can qualify
for the practice of law.
Applicants are selected for admission upon the basis of demonstrated
scholarship, intellectual capacity, and qualities of character requisite to
the profession. The School endeavors to admit only those applicants
whose records indica te that they will successfully complete the course of
study.
58

�Application forms and informa tion concerning admission requiremen ts may be obtained by writing to the: Office of Admissions, Northwestern University School of Law, 357 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago II,
Iliinois.
Students beginning the study of law enter the School at the opening of
the first semester, in September.
Before enrollment, the student must h ave obtained a bachelor's degree
from an approved college or u niversity. In rare insta n ces, exceptions to
this requirement may be made for students who have completed at leas t
three years of stud y with outstanding academic records, who have
achieved high scores in the Law School A dmission Test, who ar e believed
to possess the maturity desirable for the study of law, and who present
special circumstances justifying early entran ce.
T h e comple ted application form may be submitted at any time durin g
the year preceding the expected date of entrance. Early application is
advisable. It is n ot necessary to wait until the transcripts, test score, and
recommendations can b e supplied b efore filing the applica tion. T h e
application fee is $10.00.
The application form must be supplemen ted by a transcript from
each college or university a ttended. Except in unusual cases, transcripts
should not be supplied until they include a record of three full academic
years. If the application is approved , the applicant will be asked a l
registra tion to supply a fina l transcript certifyin g th e award of a bachelor's d egree, unless the transcripts originally submitted co ntain that
cert ification.
The application must also be supported by a report of the applicant's
score on the Law School Admission Test. This Law School joined with
several other schools in sponsoring the development of this test, whi ch
is designed to measure the student's general ap titude for the study
of law. Information on h ow to arrange to take the test, administered
by the Educational Testing Service, Princeton, New J ersey, will be supplied with the admission forms. The test may be ta ken either before or
after the forms are fil ed, although a n applicant for admission in September should ordinarily plan to r egister either for the test given in the fall
or the test g iven in the winter of the preceding academic year. The Educational Testing Service should b e reques ted to report the applicant's
score directly to the Sch ool of Law.
An applicant is also asked to submit recommendations, on forms furnished by the School, from two college or university instructors. An
applicant need n ot ap p ear for a p erson al interview unless requested by
the Committee on Admissions. Prospec tive stud ents are invited and
e ncouraged, however, to visit the School.
59

�Applications are considered and acted upon as soon as the supporting
information has been received. Determinations are made upon a balanced evaluation of the applicant's college record and the Law School
Admission Test score, supplemented by the required recommendations
and other information bearing on his capacity and qualification for law
study. Each applicant is considered carefully and individually. The trend
of undergraduate achievement, performance in particular fields and
courses, and the demands and influence of other activities and personal
circumstances are weighed and taken into account. Every doubtful application is thoroughly discussed and examined by a committee of faculty
members, which may seek further information from the applicant, his
college or professors, or request the student to appear for an interview
to assist the committee in its deliberations.
An applicant who is accepted for admission as a member of the class
entering in September is required to make a deposit of $25.00 by April
15 of the year of entrance or within thirty days after notice of acceptance,
whichever is later. Upon registration, the deposit is applied toward the
payment of tuition.
For applicants accepted for entrance in September, 1963, and thereafter, the deposit amount will be $50.
No applicant previously enrolled in another law school will be admitted if he is ineligible to continue study at that school.

TRANSFER
The admission of students previously enrolled in other law schools
who wish to become candidates for the degree of Juris Doctor depends
upon the applicant's achievements in law study as well as upon the factors
which control the admission of beginning students. Generally stated, the
standard requires a highly creditable law school record.
Transfer applicants should submit the application form with the
$ 10.00 application fee, transcripts from each college and university
attended, including the law school from which transfer is contemplated,
and two recommendations from former instructors, at least one a law
school instructor. A statement of class standing should also be submitted.
Transfer applicants are not required to take the Law School Admission
Test unless requested. If an applicant has already taken the test, however, a score report must be furnished to complete the application.
The granting of credit for courses completed in other schools and the
allowance of advanced standing rest within the discretion of the Dean of
the School. In no event will transfer credit be given for law school work
in schools which are not members of the Association of American Law
Schools or for courses in which the student received a grade below C or
its equivalent.
60

�A student enrolled in another law school may be admitted for the
summer session upon a certificate of good standing from the school in
wh ich he is perman ently enrolled.

PRE-LEGAL STUDY
A bachelor's degree in arts or science is requ ired for admission to the
Law School, but no specific fields of major study or particular courses are
prescribed. The purpose of the requirement is to provide the prospective
lawyer with a sound liberal education for the discharge of his broader
professional responsibilities as well as to provide a foundation for law
school training. Since the reach of the law's concerns may be as wide as
the range of human behavior, no particular course of undergraduate
study confers a special advantage in the law.
College curricula vary, the content of courses bearing the same title
may be dissimilar, and teaching attitudes and emphases differ. Accordingly suggestions must be general. Courses in such fields as history, economics, anthropology, sociology, government, and political science may
help the student to understand the structure of society and the problems
of social ordering with which the law is concerned. Studies in philosophy
and literature may impart a familiarity with the traditions of thought
that have influenced legal developments. The examination of human
behavior in courses in psychology and its analysis through statistical
method may also prove worthwhile.

In developing the capacities and skills of the lawyer, the college student should pursue studies that will enhance his power to express himself with clarity and force. English, foreign language courses, and public
speaking can be recommended, but the capacities may be developed as
well in other courses in which written work of high quality is demanded.
For the systematic ordering of abstractions and ideas, the physical, natural, and mathematical sciences, in addition to logic, may be suggested.
Apart from subject matter, the student preparing for the study of law
should take courses of sufficient difficulty to try his capacities to the
utmost, to assist in the development of the rigorous intellectual discipline
essential to success in law school. He would be well advised, in addition,
to pursue his studies far enough in some definite field to attain a mastery
of the subject, to gain the experience of deep and thorough understanding. The typical student is more likely to extend himself and thereby to
increase his capacities for law study if he follows the bent of his own
interests and tastes.
It is perhaps advisable, however, for the prospective law student to
avoid undergraduate courses in law, designed for men preparing for
other callings and duplicating law school work. Ordinarily, the time and
61

�Robert R. McCormick Hall, dedicated in
1960 and made possib le in part by
alumni gifts, completes the Law School
quadrangle.

effort will be better spent in studies in other fields. It should be noted
that a student will be required to take a one-hour course in accounting
in the second year of Law School unless he has received college credit for
three semester-hours, or its equivalent, in the field.
In general, the undergraduate college student is best advised not to try
to prepare particularly and narrowly for his law school studies, but to
prepare for his life as a lawyer by obtaining the best available general
education. He will find that what is best for law school is also the best
in liberal education-a course of study that develops in the student the
cap acity to understa nd, to think for himself, and to express himself
effectively.

TUITION, FEES, AND EXPENSES
The cost of a year of law study varies with the n eeds, h abits, and circumstances of the student. As a base from which individual estimates may be drawn,
the sum of $2400 approx imates the total expense for the acad emic year of the
average unmarried student r es iding in A bbott Hall, th e Law School dormitory.
Of this total, slightly more than $1100 is required for tuition, fees, books and
supplies. The rema inder represents th e typ ical exp enditure for room, board ,
and personal needs.

TUITION
The student's total investment in his legal education, while large in absolute
terms, is insubstantial in comparison with its total r eturns in th e decad es of his
professional life. Short-term economies often prove wasteful in the long run.

62

�In the interests of its students, the Law School h as made every effort to hold
down the costs, but in the same inter ests it has refused to sacrifice an y of the
elements of a legal edu cation of the high est quality. The cost of each stud ent's
education is only partly covered by his tuition payments. A substantial portion
is paid from in come from endowmen ts and from annual gifts of alumni and
friends of Northwestern .

to themselves. Ther e is no charge for this service, and no interest is paid on
deposits.

SCHOLARSHIPS, GRANTS, AND
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
If a student has the ability and motivation necessary for the study of
law, the School is committed to providing all possible assistan ce so
that h e can reach his educational goals. Through scholarships, loans, and
a limited amount of part-time work, many students are able to complete
their law studies at Northwestern with a minimum of initial savings or
outside financial aid.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND GRANTS
Approximately one-third of the School's entering students receive
financial assistance in the form of scholarships or loans. The amounts
of the awards vary from a portion of tuition to full tuition plus a stipend
65

�Generous physical facilities, and a student body of limited size , produce an
atmosphe re condu cive to effecti ve study.

for subsistence. Ordinarily an award of financial assistance to a first-year
student is renewed as a m a tter of course for his seco nd a nd third year
if he mainta ins a creditabl e class sta nding.
All or part of an award may be made subj ect to an obligation of
repayment after graduation . In these cases, repayment is ordinarily
arranged on an installment b asis during the first few years following
graduation. Interest does not accrue until the end of the firs t year after
gradua tion , and thereafter the ra te is low.
Awards of fin an cial assistance are made upon the basis of academic
promise a nd need. Each appli cation is individually considered by a committee of facu lty members and each award is determined by an individual
appraisal of the student's qualifica tions for Jaw study and m on e tary
n eeds. For students of exceptional ab ility who h ave adequa te resources
for Jaw study, a limited number of honorary sch olarships are awarded
annu ally in recognition of pre-legal achievement. These special sch olarships, described below, carry only a nomin al financial award, so that
available funds may be devoted to the assistance of students who oth erwise would be un able to stud y law.
Application forms for scholarships and grants may be obtained by
writing to the Office of Adm issions of the L aw School. Special application
forms a re required for the Clarion DeWitt H ardy Scholarships, described
below.

The available funds are:

Clarion D eWitt Hardy Scholarships in Law. Scholarships providing
for tu ition, and for an additional amount of up to $1,000 for expenses,

academic year. The scholarships are renewed each year for scholars who
maintain a good record and meet the other standards of the program.
The scholarships are in honor of the late Professor Clarion De,,Vitt Hardy

Loans are without interest until one year after graduation; thereafter,
interest accrues at the rate of 2½ or 3 per cent, depending upon the

Robert Shapiro made a gift of $6,800 to the Law School to be used to
provide repayable grants to deserving law students in need of financial
assistance.

EXAMINATIONS AND GRADES
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. In accordance
with the prevailing practice in legal education, a single final examination is usually given, without periodic or mid-term tests, to permit comprehensive treatment of the subject matter and to measure the student's
capacity to master and to work with a substantial body of material. Although examinations provide the most important source for determining
the student's relative achievement, consideration may also be given to
the written work done in connection with a course and to the preparation
of assignments for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion. In
seminar courses, no examinations are ordinarily given and grades are
70

�based upon the products of individual research and participation in the
seminar discussions.
Students who are eligible but who, for good reason, are unable to
take an examination may, with the permission of the Dean, take the next
regularly scheduled examination in the course, take the examination
late, or, in unusual cases, be given a special examination.
The grading system is numerical. A grade of 85 or above represents
work of the highest distinction. Grades of 68 and above indicate various
degrees of satisfactory work. Credit is given for courses in which the
student receives a grade from 60 through 67, but such grades indicate
unsatisfactory work. No credit is given for a course in which a grade of
less than 60 is received.
A student who, at the end of any term after his first term in School,
has failed to maintain an average of 68 to that date is ineligible for
further registration in the School. A student who fails to attain an
average grade of 68 over his entire course is ineligible for a degree.
Grades received at other schools are not considered in determining the
average grade.
At the option of the instructor, grades in courses and seminars in
which no examination is given may be recorded simply as P (Pass) or
F (Failure).

HONORS AND PRIZES
Since its beginnings, the Law School has been dedicated to the encouragement and recognition of legal scholarship. In 1907, the Order of
the Coif was founded at Northwestern, and it has since become the recognized national honor society in legal education with chapters, numbering more than 45, established in most of the leading law schools.
The tradition of original and enduring scholarship and the devotion
to excellence manifested in the founding of the Order of the Coif permeate the activities of the School. Exemplifying the Law School's emphasis
on scholarship are the many honors and awards recognizing superior
accomplishment.
THE ORDER OF THE COIF, NORTHWESTERN CHAPTER
The Northwestern chapter of the Order of the Coif annually elects from
the senior class a number of persons, not exceeding ten per cent of the
class, who on the basis of scholarship and character are deemed worthy
of the honor. The work of the Law Review is so integrated with the
instruction program of the School that satisfactory participation in that
work is normally a requisite for election to the Order of the Coif.

THE UNITED STATES LAW WEEK A WARD
A year's complimentary subscription to Law Week is awarded to the senior student in
law who in the judgment of the faculty committee has made the most
satisfactory progress between his third and fifth semesters.

DEGREES
Degrees will be conferred by the Trustees of the University upon students who are recommended by the faculty of the School of Law. Before
a student is recommended for a degree, he must have satisfied the faculty
as to his character, and he must have complied with the requirements for
the degree for which he is a candidate.
The principal first degree in law awarded by the University is the
Juris Doctor (JD.). It is conferred upon students who have earned a
bachelor's degree from an approved college or university before beginning law study and who have satisfactorily completed courses carrying
90 semester-hours of credit in the School of Law, including the required courses described on pages 28-29. The work must be pursued
during a residence period of three academic years or the equivalent. The
last year must be in residence at Northwestern University School of Law,
and in the case of students transferring from another law school, a minimum of thirty semester-hours of credit must be earned in this School.
When the faculty believes that the candidate's record of scholarship
merits special recognition, the degree may be awarded "With Distinction"
or "With Highest Distinction."
Students admitted under exceptional circumstances with three years of
college work (see p. 59) receive the degree of Bachelor of Laws upon the
satisfactory completion of the same course of study required for the degree of Juris Doctor. Such students who have completed three years of
undergraduate work in the College of Liberal Arts of Northwestern University may receive the degree of Bachelor of Arts in accordance with the
requirements of the College (see the University Register for particulars),
upon the further satisfactory completion of 27 semester-hours of the firstyear courses in the School of Law, or upon the completion of such
equivalent courses in the School of Law as may be approved by the faculties of the School of Law and the College of Liberal Arts. Other students admitted upon the basis of three years of college study may be
74

�awarded the degree of Bachelor of Science in Law upon the satisfactory
completion of the first year of work in the School of Law.
Degrees conferred upon students who have already obtained their
first degrees in law are described in the information concerning Graduate
Study, below.

GRADUATE STUDY IN LAW
The graduate program of the Law School has several objectives. One
purpose is to offer to recent law graduates who have demonstrated
superior proficiency in the study of law, as well as to active practitioners,
an opportunity not only to broaden their legal knowledge but also to
study and engage in research in particular fields of interest. The School
also desires to make its facilities available to law teachers, and prospective law teachers, interested in advanced study and original research and
writing under faculty guidance. In addition, the program is intended to
provide outstanding graduates of foreign law schools with an opportunity to expand their knowledge of American legal processes and to
engage in comparative legal research.
Inquiries concerning graduate study should be addressed to the Office
of Admissions of the Law School. No application fee is required of
foreign applicants for admission to graduate study.

ADMISSION TO GRADUATE STUDY AND TO CANDIDACY
FOR ADV AN CED DEGREES
The admission of students who have been awarded a first degree in
law to graduate study or to candidacy for the degree of Master of Laws or
Doctor of Juridical Science are matters which rest within the discretion of
the Graduate Committee.
Although foreign graduate students whose native language is not
English are eligible for admission as graduate students, they normally
are not admitted as candidates for a degree until they have completed
one semester's work as graduate students and have demonstrated during
that time their capacity to complete successfully the degree requirements.
Experience indicates that foreign students whose native language is
not English have great difficulty in meeting the requirements unless they
have a good command of written and spoken English.
DEGREES
Two graduate degrees are granted: the degree of Master of Laws
(LL.M.) and the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science (S.J.D.).
Master of Laws (LL.M.). The degree of Master of Laws will be conferred upon students who have obtained a first degree in law from this
University or another having equivalent requirements; in unusual cases,
75

�this requirement may be waived by a vote of the faculty. Also such students must fulfill the following requirements:
(a) The completion of one academic year of residence in this School,
during which time credit must be obtained for not less than 10 semesterhours in courses or seminars not previously counted toward the first
degree in law. During their year of residence, graduate students will be
required to maintain a superior scholarship record. Each graduate student's course program is individually planned in light of the student's
choice of a thesis topic. Also, students who have not previously taken
Jurisprudence and Comparative Law will be required to enroll in these
seminars. To the extent necessary to establish a background for their
research, the Graduate Committee may, in its discretion, require graduate students to take course and seminar work in addition to the minimum prescribed above.
(b) The completion of a thorough study of some approved legal topic
and the presentation of a paper embodying its results. The candidate's
thesis must be of such character as to be suitable for publication in the
Northwestern University Law Review or The Journal of Criminal Law,
Criminology and Police Science.

(c) The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the faculty.

Doctor of Juridical Science (S.].D.). The degree of Doctor of Juridical Science will be conferred upon students who have obtained the
degree of Juris Doctor from this or some other university or college having equivalent requirements for that degree, or have obtained the degree
of Bachelor of Laws from another university or college whose requirements for that degree are equivalent to those prescribed by this School
for the degree of Juris Doctor, and who have fulfilled the following
requirements:
(a) The completion of one academic year of residence at this School.
The time required for the completion of a candidate's work, however,
will normally run far beyond the period of residence required.
(b) The completion of a study to be approved by the faculty or its
designated committee. This study shall be one involving original research
and must be completed in such manner, both as to subject matter and
literary form, as to be, in the opinion of the faculty, a significant and
scholarly contribution to legal science.
(c) The completion of such other work, if any, as may be directed by
the Dean in the particular case.
(d) The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the faculty.
It is the policy of the faculty to restrict this degree to candidates who
have had substantial experience either in practicing or teaching law and
76

I

�who, through their published writings, have evidenced their capacity for
advanced graduate work.
Candidates for this degree are afforded every facility for both library
and field research, and at some time during their residence they are given
the opportunity to instruct students along the line of their research. They
are given the rank of graduate fellow and are accorded many of the
privileges of members of the faculty.

TUITION, FEES, AND EXPENSES
Full information concerning tuition and fees for graduate study
appears on page 63 of the Bulletin.
The expenses of an unmarried student for the academic year, including books, board and room, and incidentals (but excluding tuition and
fees) should approximate $1,3 00 to $ 1,400.
Accommodations for unmarried graduate students are available on
the University's Chicago campus.
The Law School has no funds available for travel expenses of graduate students, and it is necessary for those accepted for graduate study
to make their own arrangements through the Fulbright program or
otherwise.

GRADUATE FELLO\VSHIPS
FELLOWSHIPS IN INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES
In
I 957 the Ford Foundation made a grant to the Law School for expansion
of its program in International Legal Studies. The sum of $6,000 a year
is specifically made available for graduate fellowships for foreign lawyers
and students. Applicants interested in pursuing international legal
studies as their major interest are given preference in the awarding of
these Ford Fellowships.
The Law School has long been interested in international law and
related subjects. The late Dean Wigmore inaugurated this interest and
laid the foundation for a substantial collection of international and
foreign law materials available in the Law Library. For more than 10
years the School has offered a basic introductory course in International
Law. The school has also offered seminars in International Organization ,
Comparative Law, Admiralty, and Civil Liberties on a comparative basis.
In furtherance of the grant, the School has added a course in Family Law
with emphasis on comparative materials, a seminar in International Business Transactions, and a seminar on European Economic Organizations.
The James Nelson Raymond Fellowship is awarded on a competitive
basis to applicants, domestic or foreign, interested in any field of legal
study, including International Legal Studies.
77

�The amount of these fellowships is three thousand dollars ($3,000).
From these amounts, tuition and fees are deducted. The amount of the
fellowship award, after these deductions, is paid in nine installments,
the first being available on October 1.
In addition, the General Electric Foundation, in I 961 and again in
1962, made a grant of $5,000 for research in the field of International
Law. A fellowship is conferred for this purpose.

FELLOWSHIPS IN CRIMINAL LAW
A grant in 1958 to the Law
School by the Ford Foundation contains provisions for a program of
graduate study in criminal law. The grant provides that six fellowships
may be awarded annually. Two of these fellowships are for graduates of
foreign law schools. Generally, persons receiving these fellowships are
candidates for the degree of Master of Laws.
A primary aim of this graduate program is the improvement of
criminal justice through the development and training of outstanding
persons interested in devoting their talents primarily to teaching and
writing in the field of criminal law and administration. The program is
also open to persons interested in additional study as preparation for or
in furtherance of careers in other areas of the administration of criminal justice.
In selecting the fellows, considerable weight is given to the applicant's
scholastic record and attainments both in law school and in college. Consideration also is given to the applicant's interest in the field of criminal
law and his plans for the future with respect to that interest. Although
actual experience in some area of the administration of criminal justice
is not required for admission to the program, such experience is, of
course, helpful in demonstrating the applicant's genuine interest in
the field.
The amount of each American fellowship is $4,000; the foreign fellowships provide a stipend of $3,000. From these amounts, tuition and fees
are deducted. The amount of the fellowship award, after these deductions, is paid in nine installments, the first being available on October l .
GENERAL INFORMATION CONCERNING
GRADUATE FELLOWSHIPS
Additional information concerning the fellowship programs described
above, including applica tion requirements, filing deadlines, and award
dates, may be obtained b y writing to the Office of Admissions of the
Law School.
Normally, fellowships are not awarded to foreign students who already
have spent a year in this country under another scholarship grant. Also,
fellowships are granted for one year only.
78

�None of the graduate fellowships described above contains provisions
for travel expenses. Students must make their own travel arrangements.
Successful fellowship applicants should also bring sufficient funds for
personal expenses from the time of arrival until October 1.

TEACHING ASSOCIATES
Four Teaching Associates are appointed annually to assist in the
educational program of the School. Each one devotes about half of his
time to working with and advising students chiefly in connection with
written work. The balance of his time is available at the option of each
associate for research and class work toward a graduate degree or for
work on various projects related to governmental and civic affairs in close
cooperation with members of the faculty.

PLACEMENT

At graduation the Northwestern law student joins the century-long
procession of Law School alumni. A wide range of choice is open. To
provide its graduates with advice, guidance, and a broad selection of
opportunities for their legal careers, the Law School maintains a Placement Office under faculty direction.
Through general announcements to the profession and particular
inquiries, the Placement Office gathers information on professional opportunities and openings. The Alumni Association of the Law School,
through its Committee on Placement, assists in the program by obtaining
information from the alumni of the School and other practicing attorneys concerning available positions. The Placement Office compiles a
complete listing of these opportunities, maintains files for the use of prospective graduates, and posts announcements of new openings to keep
the students' information current.
It has been repeated in each generation that the bar is overcrowded.
But the demand for well-trained able young lawyers has not diminished,
and the rising level of starting salaries gives evidence of the professional
need. Each year, the Placement Office receives inquiries and requests
from law firms, corporations, and government agencies for man y times the
number of available graduates.
Naturally, most of the Law School's alumni are engaged in the private
practice of law. Some have chosen to remain in Chicago, while others
have settled in cities and towns throughout the United States. In large
firms and in individual practice, Iorthwestern graduates rank as leaders
of the bar in nearly every state in the nation and in several foreign countries. In service to their profession as well as their clients, they h ave occupied the presidencies of the American, state, and local bar associations.
Not all alumni elect the rewards of private practice. Furthering a
strong tradition of public service, a number of men in each graduating
79

�class accept positions with government, at the national, state, or local
level. Working with prosecuting and investigating agencies, on government boards and commissions, and on the staffs of government departments, these men are often vested with major responsibilities and acquire
wide experience early in their professional lives. After a period of
government service, many enter private practice, where their experience
in government is of great value. Others make public service a career and
attain high public office, elective or appointive.
The roster of Law School alumni includes governors and United
States Senators, cabinet members, department heads, and diplomats;
mayors, attorneys-general, and prosecutors; legislators and government
advisors.
The strength of the Northwestern tradition of public service is illustrated by a striking statistic: In more than half the presidential campaigns of the past 65 years a Law School alumnus has been either the
candidate or a strong contender for the nomination of one of the two
major parties.
In the judiciary, Northwestern men have served with distinction on
the benches of the highest courts, both federal and state. For the topranking students, there are opportunities for clerkships with justices and
judges of the federal and state courts.
Openings in the field of law teaching are not numerous, and the
financial rewards are not great. Through the years, Northwestern, for
its size, has contributed more than its share of the nation's law teachers.
Its graduates have joined the faculties of nearly all the major law schools
in the United States, and many Northwestern men have served as deans,
university presidents, and leaders in other branches of education.
An expanding field of opportunity, beyond the limits of tradition al
practice, is offered the Law School graduate interested in business, industry, and finance. In increasing recognition of the values of legal training,
corporations, banks, and companies in a wide range of enterprise have
come to seek Law School graduates not only for their legal staffs but for
executive positions as well. Attractive starting salaries and opportunities
for advancement in management have combined to draw a substantial
number of graduates of the Law School. Alumni have risen to principal
executive posts in many of the nation's largest corporations in such field s
as transportation, oil, retailing, insurance, finance, public utilities, and
manufacturing.
From the array of professional opportunities open to him, the graduating student must choose for himself. It is the function of the Law
School Placement Office to aid him in exploring the possibilities and to
arrange the necessary con tacts.
Each year a large number of law firms from major cities throughout

�the United States send partners to the Law School to interview advanced
students. Government agencies, corporations, and banks also send representatives to the School for interviews. In addition to the hundreds of
personal interviews conducted annually at the Law School, the Placement
Office arranges for interviews of students in large numbers at law offices,
government agencies, and corporate headquarters.
A biographical summary is prepared and duplicated for each prospective graduate seeking a position, and appropriate letters of introduction
and recommendation are furnished.
Beyond its service to current graduates, the Law School Placement
Office also handles the temporary placement of students with law firms
and government agencies for summer vacation periods, in Chicago and
elsewhere, typically between the student's second and third years, and
the placement of alumni of earlier years who are returning from military
service or are seeking a change of position.

82

�THE LAW ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
Over the years the Law School has enjoyed the loyal support of its
alumni. Commemorating the Law School's centennial, they contributed
substantially to the construction of Robert R. McCormick Hall and the
Owen L. Coon Library, and their generous annual gifts to the Law
Alumni Fund provide scholarships and significant support for the general
program of the School.
Many alumni assist directly in the educational program. A number
serve as judges both in the Moot Court program and in the voluntary
appellate advocacy competition. In addition, alumni are frequently asked
to draw upon their practical experience and special knowledge in particular fields of law by participating in course work or addressing student
groups. They render invalua ble assistance in connection with the placement program.
Each year alumni reunions are held during the meetings of the American Bar Association and various state bar associations. In addition, an
alumni dinner is held each spring in Chicago with a prominent guest
speaker. Also, a faculty-alumn i luncheon is held in Chicago each fall.
Officers and directors of the Law Alumni Association for the academic
year 1961-62 were:

�NORTHWESTERN

UNIVERSITY

ORIGIN AND GROWTH
A charter establishing "the North Western University" was granted on January
28, 1851, to nine young Chicagoans-three lawyers, a physician, two businessmen,
and three leading Methodist ministers. It was their dream to establish "a university
of the highest order of excellence" to meet the educational needs of the rapidly
developing territory of the Northwest.

They decided to set up their university, not in the raw metropolis of Chicago,
but in the virgin wilderness twelve miles to the north. With their meager funds
they bought 380 acres of land, now the campus and the central part of the city
of Evanston, erected a modest frame building, and in November, 1855, opened
their "university." It consisted of ten young men and two professors.
Despite the difficulties caused by the Civil War, recurring financial panics, and
the disastrous Chicago fire of 1871, the young university survived and grew. Grad·
ually professional schools of medicine, law, and dentistry were affiliated. Specialized
new departments branched out from the original "College of Literature and
Science." In 1869 the first women students were admitted.
One of the momentous events in the University's history occurred in 1926,
when the great Chicago Campus was dedicated. Its magnificent buildings house the
School of Law, the Medical and Dental Schools, the Graduate School of Business
Administration, and the Evening Divisions of the University.
Today Northwestern is an institution of world-wide influence, with 80,000
living alumni. Its thirteen schools a re located on two campuses, with land and
buildings valued at $50,000,000. The full-time enrollment of the University is
about 9,100 students; of this number approximately 7,300 are enrolled on the Evanston Campus. The faculty consists of approximately 1,100 members. The bound
volumes in the libraries of the University total approximately 1,322,000. Through
the years it has given educational training to more than a quarter of a million students, made many significant contributions to knowledge through research, and
benefited thousands through its clinics.

THE EVANSTON CAMPUS
The Evanston Campus includes the following schools: College of Liberal Arts;
the Graduate School; the Schools of Music, Speech, Education, Journalism, and
Business; the Technological Institute; and the Summer Session.
About eighty buildings house the classrooms, laboratories, dormitories, gymnasium, library, lecture halls, and offices of the Schools on the Evanston Campus.
Living quarters for students are provided in the Women's Quadrangles opposite the
south end of the campus and in several halls nearby, and in the Men's Quadrangles
a long the lake front on the north campus. The beach which borders the ninety-acre
campus is reserved for students and faculty. Newest additions to the Men's Quadrangles are two dormitories for freshman men, Dwight St. John Bobb Memorial
Building and McCulloch Hall.

�THE

T

LAW

SCHOOL

FOUNDING AND LOCATION

was founded in 1859 by Thomas Hoyne. In 1873, as the
Uuion College of Law, it came under the joint control of Northwestern University and the old University of Chicago. When the latter institution ceased to
exist, the School came under the control of Northwestern University, and in 1891
became Northwestern University School of Law. The School is located on the
Chicago Campus in two buildings erected in 1925, overlooking Lake Michigan a t
Lake Shore Drive and Chicago Avenue, within a few minutes' walk of Chicago's
Loop district.
I-IE SCHOOL OF LAW

BUILDINGS

Levy Mayer Hall is the gift of the late Mrs. Levy Mayer in memory of her
husband, an eminent member of the Chicago bar. The Elbert H. Gary Library
Building and the library which it houses are the gifts of the late Elbert H. Gary,
of the Class of 1867. A beautiful cloistered garden is the gift of Mrs. Hortense Mayer
Hirsch, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Levy Mayer.
The main entrance to Levy Mayer Hall is on Chicago Avenue. On the first
floor is the entrance lobby, which opens to the south onto the garden arcade;
to the east into Lowden Hall, a commodious lounge named for Governor Frank
0. Lowden, one of the School's distinguished alumni. To the west, a corridor leads
to majestic Lincoln Hall, which has a seating capacity of approximately four
hundred persons.
On the second floor are the general offices overlooking the garden, professors'
offices, and Booth Hall, with a seating capacity of 140, named for Henry Booth, the
first professor and dean of the School from 1859 to 1891. The entrance to the
alcoved reading room of Elbert H. Gary Library is also on this floor. From within,
the two buildings seem as one.
On the third floor are the Faculty Room, professors' offices, Hoyne Hall, named
for Thomas Hoyne, the founder of the School, and Hurd Hall, named for Harvey
Bostwick Hurd, a professor from 1863 to 1902, both classrooms with seating capaci- ,
ties of 80 to 100 persons.
On the fourth floor are study and seminar rooms, each of which accommodates
from six to fifteen students. On the ground floor are lockers, storage and supply
rooms, mimeographing service, vaults, showers, etc.
The halls, classrooms, offices, lounges, study and reading rooms of the build·
ings are spacious and artistically finished and appointed. On the walls are numerous paintings and etchings of eminent judges and lawyers from many countries,
also many reproductions and photographs of documents, trials, and persons famous
in legal history.
The surroundings of gardens, parks, and Lake Michigan and the tall buildings
of the other schools to the west give the School seclusion in the heart of a great city.

ROBERT R. McCORMICK HALL

On July 30, 1958, ground was broken for a new building which will complete
the Law School quadrangle. Named to honor a distinguished alumnus of the Law
School, Col. Robert R . McCormick, the new building will be three stories high, of
modified Gothic style to match Levy Mayer Hall, and air conditioned throughout.
Construction is scheduled to be completed in time for dedication during the
Centennial celebration in 1960.
Robert R. McCormick Hall will provide a new library addition which will
double the size of the present facilities of the Elbert H. Gary Library. On the first
floor will be a classroom auditorium with a seating capacity of 174, and a practice
court room designed as an actual court room to be used for all moot co urt competition and courses in trial technique.

In addition, Robert R. McCormick Hall will provide two other classrooms
seating 75 each, a lounge, professors' offices, seminar and conference rooms, legal
publication offices, and offices for Teaching Associates, Research Assistants and
graduate students.

LAW SCHOOL CENTENNIAL

September 21, 1959, will be the one hundredth anniversary of the founding of
the Law School. The Centennial will be observed by a series of conferences to
be held during the I 959-60 session on the central theme, "Preservation of a Free
Society under Law ." In the fall of 1959 there will be a conference on Freedom
in the Modern American Economy, in the winter of 1960 there will be an international conference on Criminal Law Admin istration in a Free Society, and in May
of 1960 there will be a conference on Individual Freedom under the Constitution.
The latter conference will be followed by a special convocation at which Robert
R. McCormick Hall will be dedicated.
Distinguished legal scholars from the bench, practicing bar, and Jaw faculties
of the western world will participate in the conferences. All who are interested
in the development of law and legal institutions are cordially invited to attend.

PROGRAM OF THE SCHOOL

The School does not confine its interests to any particular locality or region.
Its students are drawn from all parts of the country and indeed from all over the
world. Nevertheless, its geographical location presents opportunities and imposes
responsibilities which are influential in shaping its program.
The Middle Western region includes a wide variety of interests. Here are the
instruments of industry and trade in all of their forms, centers of control for extensive business enterprise, institutions that supply credit, protection, communication, transportation, and numerous other services; and here necessarily are agencies
of government at all levels. It is possible for the School to draw upon this area for
much that is valuable in its educational program. Leaders of the legal profession,
of government, and of business are within reach to share with students and faculty
their wisdom and experience. Faculty members, working in bar association committees, counseling in government, arbitrating disputes between management and
labor and otherwise participating in the affairs of the community, are able to
impart to the classroom discussions an increased significance and vitality.
The School also recognizes its responsibility in contributing a service to the
interests and population of this area and in training young men and women in
the processes of Jaw and government to deal with the multitude of problems and
conflicts that necessarily arise in a section which concentrates so varied an assortment of activities within a single community. To this end it offers training in
the skills and tradition of the lawyer's craft; it provides scholarships and fellowships for those who show high promise and would otherwise be unable to obtain
adequate professional training. The periodicals which it publishes foster research
by students and faculty and provide a means of making available the results to
the bar and to the public. Buildings, library and living quarters furnish a
stimulating environment for a wholesome intellectual and professional life. The
program as a whole is designed to maintain a close contact with the current realities of the legal world, and at the same time to hold fast to the cultural values
essential to a learned profession.

INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES

In 1957 the Ford Foundation made a grant to the Law School for expansion of its
program in International Legal Studies. This grant will make avai lable approxi mately $24,000 annually for a period of ten years. Part of these funds will be used
fqr additional faculty in the field of comparative law and for visiting foreign professors and for faculty research. The sum of $6,000 is specifically made available for
grad ua te fellowships for foreign lawyers and students, referred to under Fellowships,

�ADMISSION
Scholarships, Grants listed elsewhere in this bulletin. The balance of the funds will
be devoted, among other things, to work-seminars and conferences, exchanges with
other law schools, and for the promotion of cooperation among law schools for program development in international legal studies.
The Law School has long been interested in international law and related subjects. The late Dean vVigmore inaugurated this interest and laid the foundation for
a substantial collection of international and foreign law materials available in the
Law Library. For more than ten years the School has offered a basic introductory
course in International Law. The School has also offered seminars in International
Organization, Comparative Law, Admiralty, and Civil Liberties on a comparative
basis. In furtherance of the grant, the School has added a course in Family Law
with emphasis on comparative materials, and a seminar in International Business
Transactions.
The program is under the direction of Professor Brunson MacChesney.

CRIMINAL LAW PROGRAM

A 1958 Ford Foundation grant of $60,000 a year for a five-year period was
awarded the Law School for the purpose of enlarging its criminal law program.
The award has permitted the addition of another faculty member in the criminal law
field. Six fellowships, ranging from $3,000 to $4,000, will be available each year for
graduate students interested in criminal law-four for American law school graduates
and two for graduates of foreign law schools. The Ford grant has also made it
possible to extend the Law School's short course "in service" program for various
groups involved in the administration of the criminal Jaw. At present, annual
short courses are offered for prosecuting attorneys, for defense lawyers in criminal
cases, and for newsmen in crime news analysis an&lt;l reporting. Later on, short courses
will be offered for criminal court judges, and for top ranking police officers.
The program is under the direction of Professor Fred E. Inbau, assisted by Professor Claude R. Sowle.

ADMISSION

New students are admitted at the beginning of the first semester. In view of
the demands of military service, provision may also be made for the admission
of new students in February.
An applicant for admission must have obtained a bachelor's degree from an approved college or university. Exceptions to this requirement may be made in unusual
circumstances for applicants who have completed at least three years of work with
academic distinction in an approved college or university and who are believed
to possess the maturity desirable for the study of law. Applicants are selected for
admission upon the basis of demonstrated scholarship, intellectual capacity, and
high moral character. The School endeavors to admit only those applicants who
in its judgment will succeed in legal study.
A complete transcript of the applicant's college record and of any work done
in a professional or other school, together with evidence of any degree he may have
received, must be filed with his application, or as soon thereafter as it can be obtained.
Two photographs of the applicant must also be filed with the application. If there
have been appreciable intervals during the course or since the completion of his
college work the applicant must indicate his activities dm·ing those periods, and
if he has been employed, must give the names and addresses of his employers.
Servicemen will be supplied forms for indicating their military service records .
All applicants for admission are required to take the Law School Admission Test,
administered by the Educational Testing Service."' The test may be taken whether
or not application for admission has been previously filed. The test scores will be

used to supplement college records, recommendations, interviews, and other factors
bearing upon admission to law school.
Applications for admission with the classes entering in September, 1959, and
February, 1960, and all other applications filed on or before August 31, 1959, must
be accompanied by the application fee of $5. This fee is not returnable, but will be
applied upon enrollment toward payment of the $10 matriculation fee. Applications
for admission with the classes entering in September, 1960, and thereafter, filed after
August 31, 1959, must be accompanied by an application fee of $10. This fee is not
returnable, but applicants who have paid the $10 application fee will not be charged
a matriculation fee. No application fee is required of foreign applicants for admission
to graduate study.
Applicants accepted for admission are required to make a deposit of $25 within
thirty days after notice of acceptance. This deposit will not be refunded, but will be
applied as part payment of tuition.
If the applicant resides in or near Chicago, he may be requested to come to
the School for a conference.
The admission of students from other law schools as candidates for a d egree rests
within the discretion of the Committee on Admissions. Transfer to the School of Law
is approved only in the case of highly qualified applicants. The granting of advanced
standing for credits obtained elsewhere rests in the discretion of the Dean of the
School. In no event will transfer credit be given for grades below C or its equivalent
received in any other law school. Students of other schools may be admitted for a
single term or for certain courses on a certificate of good standing.
No applicant previously enrolled in another law school will be admitted if
he has been denied readmission to that school.
Auditors who are not candidates for a degree may be admitted to certain courses
in such numbers as will not interfere with the work of the students registered for
such courses.
Forms for making application will be supplied on request.

PRELEGAL STUDY
Among the many values to be derived from college study, maturity is of peculiar importance to the study of law. Such maturity comes from rigorous intellectual discipline derived from the mastery of any study undertaken by a student,
rather than from the mere content of the subj ect matter. Unless unusual circumstances warrant an exception, it is the opinion of the Faculty that no student should
undertake law study before securing an academic degree.
The preparation for the study of law is an individual problem. Ordinarily a
student would do well to follow a Bachelor of Arts or Science program with
emphasis on English, history , economics, and political science. In addition, time
should be found for courses in speech, accounting, and statistical method. It should
also be noted that a student who has not acquired reasonable proficiency in accounting is required to take one hour of accounting during his second year in Law
School. But students differ widely in their tastes, and college courses vary greatly
in the stimulation and discipline afforded the student. The School, therefore, does
not prescribe particular courses for admission. In this it follows the policy of the
Association of American Law Schools. Students who are preparing to enter the
School of Law should consult with their college prelegal advisers or write to the
Dean of the Law School.

DEGREES

Degrees will be conferred by the Trustees of the University upon students who
are recommended therefor by the Faculty of the School of Law. Before a student
will be recommended for a degree, he must have satisfied the Faculty as to his
character and must have complied with the requirements of the degree for which
he is a candidate.
12

�DEGREES
DEGREE OF JURIS DOCTOR
The degree of Juris Doctor will be conferred upon students admitted on the
basis of a bachelor's degree in arts or science from an approved college (not
including any credit for law study) upon the satisfactory completion of 90 semesterhours of credit in the School of Law, during a residence period of three academic
years or the equivalent. The last year must be in residence at Northwestern University School of Law, and in the case of students transferring from another law
school, a minimum of thirty semester-hours of credit must be earned in this University.
Where in the opinion of the Faculty the candidate's record of scholarship merits
special recognition, the degree of Juris Doctor may be awarded "With Distinction" or
"With Highest Distinction."
DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF LAWS
The degree of Bachelor of Laws will be conferred upon students admitted in
exceptional circumstances on the basis of three years of acceptable work in an
approved college, upon the satisfactory completion of 90 semester-hours of credit
in the School of Law during a residence period of three academic years or the
equivalent. The last year must be in residence at Northwestern University School
of Law, and in lhe case of students transferring from another law school, a minimum
of thirty semester-hours of credit must be earned in this University.
Where in the opinion of the Faculty the candidate's record of scholarship merits
special recognition, the degree of Bachelor of Laws may be awarded "With
Distinction" or "With Highest Distinction."

equal requirements in that regard. In unusual cases this requirement may be
waived by vote of the Faculty.
A candidate for the degree of Master of Laws will be required to meet the
following conditions:
(a) The completion of one academic year of residence in this School, during
which time credit must be obtained for not less than 15 semester-hours in courses
not previously counted toward the first degree in law.
(b) The completion of a thorough study of some approved legal topic and

Commerce.
(c) The passing of an examination covering his general legal attainments.

DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF JURIDICAL SCIENCE
The degree of Doctor of Juridical Science-Scientiae Juridicae Doctor (S.J.D.)
-may be conferred upon candidates who have obtained the degree of Juris Doctor
from this or some other university or college having equal requirements for that
degree, or have obtained the degree of Bachelor of Laws from another university
or college whose requirements for that degree are equal to those prescribed by
this School for the degree of Juris Doctor.
A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science will be required to
meet the following conditions:
(a) The completion of one academic year of residence at this School. The
time required for the comp letion of a candidate's work, however, will normally
run far beyond the period of residence required.
(b) The completion of a study to be approved by the Faculty or its proper
committee. This study shall be one involving original research and must be completed in such manner, as to both subject matter and literary form, as to be, in
the opinion of the Faculty, a significant a nd scholarly contribution to legal science.

scholarly objective. Candidates are afforded every facility for both library and
field research, and at some time during their residence they are given the opportunity of instructing students a long the line of their research. They are given the
rank of graduate fellow and are accorded many of the privileges of members of
the Faculty. The opportunities afforded by the School and the community for
graduate study are in all practical respects unlimited.

COMBINED DEGREES
DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF ARTS

I. An applicant admitted after three years of undergraduate work in the College
of Liberal Arts of this University (see section on "Admissions" above) may receive
the Bachelor of Arts degree in accordance with the requirements of the College (see
the University Register for particulars), upon the further satisfactory completion of
27 semester-hours of the first-year courses in the School of Law, or upon the completion of such equivalent courses in the School of Law as may be approved by the
faculties of the School of Law and the College of Liberal Arts.
II. A student admitted after three years of college credit (90 semester-hours)
from another approved college of arts and sciences, may, upon the satisfactory completion of the first year's work in the School of Law, receive from the Faculty a certificate requesting the faculty of his original college to recognize his work in this School
of Law as the equivalent of a fourth year in college and to recommend him for
the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science in that college or university.
DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN LAW
The degree of Bachelor of Science in Law will be conferred upon students who
in exceptional circumstances are admitted to the School of Law on the basis of
three years of acceptable work in an approved college, and who are not candidates
for the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science, upon the satisfactory completion of
the first year of work in the School of Law with a grade average of not less than 68.

EXAMINATIONS
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. They are for the purpose
of affording a basis for the determination of the student's relative mastery of the
subject upon which he is examined. Although examinations provide the most
important source for this purpose, the written work done in connection with a
course, the preparation of assignments for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion, the contacts generally with the professor in charge incident to the development of a course, arc all of great value in rating the standing of a student.
Examinations in individual or seminar studies may or may not be given, depending upon the character of the subject and the nature of the instruction.
Students who are eligible, but for good reason are unable to take an exami nation , may with the permission of the Dean take the next regularly scheduled
examination in the course. No special examinations are given.
14

�CURRICULUM

GRADES
The grading system is numerical. A grade of 85 or above represents work of
the highest distinction. Grades of 68 and above indicate various degrees of satisfactory work. Credit is given for courses in which the student receives a grade
from 55 through 67, but such grades indicate unsatisfactory work. No credit is
given for a course in which a grade of less than 55 is received.
A student who at the end of any term after his first term in School has failed
to maintain an average of 68 to that date is ineligible for further registration in
the School.
A student who fails to attain an average grade of 68 over his entire course is
ineligible for a degree.
In studies and courses in which no formal examination is given, only grades of
P or F will be recorded, except that work done in seminars in which written papers
are required may be given a numerical grade.
Grades received at other schools are not considered in determining the average
grade.

CURRICULUM*
1959-60

TIME

By attending in the summer terms a student may complete his entire course
in less than twenty-nine months from the date of entrance. This program requires
attendance for forty-one weeks in the year. If a student elects not to attend the
summer term, he may complete the course in three years.
INSTRUCTION

The work of the first year is designed to give the student an understanding of
che basic legal principles and concepts. In the second and third years, courses
dealing with related subject matters are scheduled in the same term where ex perience indicates that this is of advantage to the student. In the third year the
student is offered a choice among a number of courses and seminars. Although
the School in the work leading to the first degree in law does not attempt to train
specialists, it is possible in the third year for a student to devote a part of his time
to a specialized field.
In the basic courses of the first year case analysis predominates, but there is
also opportunity for lectures and library work as well as for exercises in written
and oral expression under close supervision of faculty and staff members. In the
second and third years, case analysis diminishes while problem study, seminars,
research, writing, discussion and lectures increase.
It is recognized that problems of law, especially those dealt with in the more
advanced courses, are closely related to problems of business and government.
Consequently, in order to provide adequate training for the practice of law, materials from other disciplines are integrated with legal studies and extensive use
is made of lecturers drawn not only from the profession but from the business
community and government.
LIMITATION OF WORK

Courses totaling 16 credit-hours in any semester, in the opinion of the Faculty,
represent the maximum amount of work which a good student can do effectively
under favorable conditions. A student who is under any serious handicap, such as
physical disability, the necessity of earning part of his expenses, or commuting for
long distances, should reduce his program. A student may be limited in his registration if in the opinion of the Dean he cannot undertake a full schedule with
a prospect of success.

course represents credit-hours.

a minimum of four hours of seminar work exclusive of participation in the Law
Review or Journals Seminar; one hour of Legal Clinic, except for members of one
of the Legal Publications Boards; the course in Professional Responsibility; a nd at
least one course or seminar in International Law. The Faculty reserves the right to
change the requirements for graduation at any time, although this authority will not
be exercised so as to place an undu e burden upon any student who has planned his
program on the basis of previously announced requirements.

�THE LIBRARY

THE ELBERT H. GARY LIBRARY
The Elbert H. Gary Library of some 179,000 volumes is named after its chief
benefactor, the late Elbert H. Gary, LL.B. 1867, LL.D . 1922. It ranks among the
six largest law school libraries in the United States and is the largest law library
in the Chicago area. The collection includes substantially all the reported decisions
of the courts of the United States, its separate states and territories, Great Britain
and the Commonwealth, together with their statutes and session laws, and all subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, textbooks, periodicals,
bibliographies- necessary to form a complete working collection of Anglo-American
law. The Anglo-American legal collection is supplemented by a selection of publications in the fields of history, economics, government, and the other social sciences .
.The Library receives every current legal periodical of general interest printed in
the English language.
The Library also has a comprehensive collection of foreign law from all parts
of the world, which includes the codes, treatises, decisions, and journals of all major
European countries and Japan, and good working collections in Latin-American
law. The nucleus of the latter is formed by the Theodore S. Chapman and Robert
0. Farrell collections of Mexican law. In addition, the Library includes outstanding
collections of medieval law, jurisprudence, legal history and comparative law, and
adequate resources in Roman law. Finally, attention should be called to the collection of rare books, representing a variety of fields and containing many classics of
the law. These are indispensable for effective legal research in areas that may be
vital both to scholars and practitioners.
A large collection of treatises and periodicals in international law is supplemented by many treaties and diplomatic documents, and the whole permits useful work to be carried on in the field of public international law. The Library
maintains a comprehensive collection of treatises, periodicals, and documents in
criminal law and its administration and a special collection of materials in aeronautics, including aviation law, commerce, and other works in the field, exclusive
of technical engineering publications.
In connection with the University Centennial Celebration, the Northwestern
Law Alumni Association raised a fund of more than $150,000 for the purchase of
books for the Library. This is called the John Henry Wigmore Library Fund, in
honor of the memory of the Dean of the School of Law from 1901 to 1929, whose
great learning and scholarly interest contributed in such a vital way to the building
of the collection.
The Library is open daily throughout the year, and in the evenings as well
whenever the School is in session. It maintains an "open stack" policy so as to
bring readers and books together without the interposition of any unnecessary
formalities, and the staff plays an affirmative role in making the Library an integral
part of the Law School's educational and r esearch programs.

PICTURES
The School's collection of pictures, now numbering some 2,500 pieces, copiously
illustrates the history, personnel, and customs of the legal profession, not only in
Great Britain and the United States, but all over the world. It represents acquisitions accumulated during the past thirty years, partly by purchase, partly by gifts
from alumni and other friends. Personal search has been made in nearly every
country of Europe for portraits and scenes to illustrate other systems of law; many
of these are unique and irreplaceable.
The collection includes some forty oil paintings, and about 1,500 etchings and
engravings. A special series is a set of twenty large platinum photographs of portraits of eminent British judges in the National Gallery of Portraits, colored by a
London artist to show the costumes. The larger portraits are framed for display on
the walls of the lecture rooms, library reading room and corridors.

�FOUNDATIONS AND SPECIAL FUNDS

FOUNDATIONS AND SPECIAL FUNDS
THE JAMES NELSON AND ANNA LOUISE RAYMOND FOUNDATION
The James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation was established in
1926 by the late Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond through a gift of $200,000. The income from this fund, which was originally subject to certain annuities, provides a
legal clinic for the poor. It was organized under the superintendence of a joint committee of the School of Law, United Charities, and the Chicago Bar Association.
The work of the clinic is under the direction of attorneys of the School of Law and
the staff of the Legal Aid Bureau of the United Charities. The work of the School
and that of the Legal Aid Bureau are highly co-ordinated. Indigent claimants and
defendants in every type of case are represented. The student comes in intimate
contact with the routine and problems of office practice and litigation generally.
The claims successfully prosecuted aggregate thousands of dollars annually, and the
legitimate defenses afforded indigent persons are equally valuable. The Foundation and clinics were the first to be set up on behalf of a law school.
For details of the clinic work required, see the Curriculum.
In connection with the work of the legal clinics, Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond
established the James Nelson Raymond Fellowship, by gifts totaling $40,000, the
income from the Fund to be awarded annually for graduate fellowships. See Fellowships, Scholarships, Grants.
THE JULIUS ROSENTHAL FOUNDATION
The Julius Rosenthal Foundation was established in 1919 in memory of Julius

Mack, of New York. Additional provision for the Foundation is made under the
terms of the will of the late Lessing Rosenthal.
Julius Rosenthal (1828-1905) was an eminent and beloved member of the Chicago bar and Librarian of the Chicago Law Institute for nearly forty years. He was
the most learned lawyer of his time in Chicago, did more than any other man to
establish the best standards of legal scholarship in this region, and by numerous
gifts of books indicated his interest in the welfare of this School.
The present capital fund of the Foundation is about $80,000, the income from
which is applicable generally for the cultivation of legal literature, and specifically
by means of the publication of meritorious essays, monographs, and books of a scientific or practical nature concerning the law, which otherwise might not readily find
a publisher; by the aid or encouragement of research in the field of legal literature, and of the preparation for publication in whole or in part of the results of
such research; by the delivery and publication of lectures on subjects concerning
the law.

the University of Illinois. Since 1932, when it was reorganized, the Review has been
wholly edited by the students of this School. Membership on the Board of Editors
is the highest honor and greatest responsibility accorded students by the School.

easy commuting distance of the School are expected to live in Abbott Hall. It is

Drive from Huron to Superior Street. It is constructed of Indiana limestone and
conforms in architectural style to the classroom buildings on the campus. The
first two floors and the basement are given over to common rooms for social and
recreational purposes, the upper sixteen to private accommodations. The first floor
contains general offices and a series of shops. On the second floor is a large student
lounge; also a fountain-grill, and two large dining rooms which offer cafeteria service.

�NORTHWESTERN

UNIVERSITY

ORIGIN AND GROWTH
A charter establishing "the North Western University" was granted on January
28, 1851, to nine young Chicagoans-three lawyers, a physician, two businessmen,
and three leading Methodist ministers. It was their dream to establish "a university
of the highest order of excellence" to meet the educational needs of the rapidly
developing territory of the northwest.
They decided to set up their university, not in the raw metropolis of Chicago,
but in the virgin wilderness twelve miles to the north. With their meager funds
they bought 380 acres of land, now the campus and the central part of the city
of Evanston, erected a modest frame building, and in November, 1855, opened
their "university." It consisted of ten young men and two professors.
Despite the difficulties caused by the Civil w·ar, recurring financial panics, and
the disastrous Chicago fire of 1871, the young university survived and grew. Gradually professional schools of medicine, law, and dentistry were affiliated. Specialized
new departments branched out from the original "College of Literature and
Science." In 1869 a daring step was taken and women were admitted.
One of the momentous events in the University's history occurred in 1926,
when the great Chicago Campus was dedicated. Its magnificent buildings house the
School of Law, the Medical and Dental Schools, the graduate division of the
School of Commerce, and the Evening Divisions of the University.
Today Northwestern is an institution of world-wide influence, with 90,000
living alumni. Its thirteen schools are located on two campuses, with land and
buildings valued at $47,000,000. The full-time enrollment of the University is
about 8,400 students; of this number approximately 6,700 are enrolled on the Evanston Campus. The faculty consists of approximately 1,200 members. The bound
volumes in the libraries of the University total approximately 1,185,000. Through
the years it has given educational training to more than a quarter of a million students, made many significant contributions to knowledge through research, and
benefited thousands through its clinics.

THE EVANSTON CAMPUS
The Evanston Campus includes the following schools: College of Liberal Arts;
the Graduate School; the Schools of Music, Speech, Education, Journalism , and Commerce; the Technological Institute; and the Summer Session.
About eighty buildings house the classrooms, laboratories, dormitories, gymnasium, library, lecture halls, and offices of the Schools on the Evanston Campus.
Living quarters for students are provided in the Women's Quadrangles opposite the
south end of the campus and in several halls nearby, and in the Men's Quadrangles
along the lake front on the north campus. The beach which borders the ninety-acre
campus is reserved for students and faculty. Newest additions to the Men's Quadrangles are two dormitories for freshman men, Dwight St. John Bobb Memorial
Building and McCulloch Hall.

SCHOOL

FOUNDING AND LOCATION

T

HE SCHOOL OF LAW was founded in 1859 by Thomas Hoyne. In 1873, as the
.
Union College of Law, it came under the joint control of Northwestern University and th_e old University of Chicago. When the latter institution ceased to
exist, the School came under the control of Northwestern University, and in 1891
became Northwestern University School of Law. The School is located on th e
Chicago Campus in two buildings erected in 1925, overlooking Lake Michigan a t
L ake Shore Drive a nd Chicago Avenu e, within a few minutes' walk of Chicago's
Loop district.

BUILDINGS
Levy Mayer Hall is the gift of th e la te Mrs. Levy Mayer in memory of her
husband, an eminent member of the Chicago bar. The Elbert H. Gary Library
Building and the library which it houses are the gifts of the late Elbert H. Gary,
of the Class of 1867. A beautiful cloistered garden, enclosed by an arched wall
connecting the wings of the two buildings, is the gift of Mrs. Hortense Mayer
Hirsch, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Levy Mayer . .
The main entrance to Levy Mayer Hall is on Chicago Avenue. On the first
floor is the entrance lobby, which opens to the south onto the garden arcade;
to the east into Lowden Hall, a commodious lounge named for Governor Frank
0. Lowden , one of the School's distinguished alumni. To the west, a corridor leads
to majestic Lincoln Hall, which has a seating capacity of approximately four
hundred persons.
On the second floor are the general offices overlooking the garden, professors'
offices, and Booth Hall, with a seating capacity of 140, named for Henry Booth, the
first professor and dean of the School from 1859 to 1891. The entrance to the
alcoved reading room of Elbert H. Gary Library is also on this floor. From within,
the two buildings seem as one.
On the third floor are the Faculty Room, professors' offices, Hoyne Hall, named
for Thomas Hoyne, the founder of the School, and Hurd Hall, named for Harvey
Bostwick Hurd, a professor from 1863 to 1902, both classrooms with seating capacities of 80 to 100 persons.
On the fourth floor are study and seminar rooms, each of which accommodates
from six to fifteen students. On the ground floor are lockers, storage and supply
rooms, mimeographing service, vaults, showers, etc.
The halls, classrooms, offices, lounges, study and reading rooms of the buildings are spacious and artistically finished and appointed. On the walls are numerous paintings and etchings of eminent judges and lawyers from many countries,
also many reproductions and photographs of documents, trials, and persons famous
in legal history.
The surroundings of gardens, parks, and Lake Michigan and the tall buildings
of the other schools to the west give the School seclusion in the heart of a great city.

PROGRAM OF THE SCHOOL
The School does not confine its interests to any particular locality or region.
Its students are drawn from all parts of the country and indeed from all over the
world. Nevertheless, its geographical location presents opportunities and imposes
responsibilities which are influential in shaping its program.
The Middle , ,vestern region includes a wide variety of interests. H ere are the
instruments of industry and trade in all of their forms, centers of control for ex-

�ADMISSION

tensive business enterprise, institutions that supply credit, protection, communication, transportation, and numerous other services; and here necessarily are agencies
of government at all levels. It is possible for the School to draw upon this area for
much that is valuable in its educational program. Leaders of the legal profession,
of government, and of business are within reach to share with students and faculty
their wisdom and experience. Faculty members, working in bar association committees, counseling in government, arb itrating disputes between management and
labor and otherwise participa ting in the affairs of the community, are able to
impart to the classroom discussions an increased significance and vitality.
The School also recognizes its responsibil ity in contributing a service to the
interests and population of this area and in training young men and women in
the processes of law and governm ent to deal with the multitude of problems and
conflicts that necessarily a rise in a section which concentrates so varied an assortment of activities within a single community. To this end it offers training in
the skills and tradition of the lawyer's craft; it provides scholarships and fellowships for those who show high promise and would otherwise be unable to obtain
adequate professional training. The periodicals which it publishes foster research
by students and faculty and provide a means of making available the results to
the bar and to the public. Buildings, library and living quarters furnish a
stimulating environment for a wholesome intellectual and professional life. The
program as a whole is designed to maintain a close contact with the current realities of the legal world, a nd at the same time to hold fa st to the cultural values
essential to a learned profession.

$25 within thirty days after notice of acceptance. This deposit will not be refunded,
but will be applied as part payment of tuition.
If the applicant resides in or near Chicago, he may be requested to come to the
School for a conference.
In the discretion of the Dean, applicants not exceeding ten in number for
any one year who do not meet the minimum requirements for admission but who
possess the general educational qualifications for admission to the Illinois bar may
be admitted as special students not candidates for a degree.
The admission of students from other law schools as candidates for a degree
and the granting of advanced standing for credits obtained in any such school
rest within the discretion of the Dean of the School. Students of other schools
may be admitted for a single term or for certain courses on a certificate of good
standing.
No applicant will be admitted who has been denied readmission to another
law school.
Auditors who are not candidates for a degree may be admitted to certain courses
in such numbers a:; will not interfere with the work of the students registered for
such courses.
The School reserves the right to deny admission to any applicant for any reason
which it considers adequate.
Forms for making application will be supplied on request.

PRELEGAL STUDY
Among the many values lo be derived from college study, maturity is of peculiar importance to the study of law. Such maturity comes from rigorous intellectual discipline derived from the mastery of any study undertaken by a student,
rather than from the mere content of the subject matter. Although students may
enter the School of Law with three years of college preparation, it is the opinion
of the Faculty that, except under special circumstances, only relatively mature
students should enter before securing an academic degree.
The preparation for the study of law is an individual problem. Ordinarily a
student would do well to follow a Bachelor of Arts or Science program with
emphasis on English, history, economics, and political science. In addition, time
should be found for courses in speech, accounting, and statistic.al method. But
students differ widely in their tastes, and college courses vary greatly in the stimulation and discipline afforded the student. The School, therefore, does not prescribe particular courses for admission. In this it follows the policy of the Association of American Law Schools. Students who are preparing to enter the School of
Law should consult with their college prelegal advisers.

DEGREES
Degrees will be conferred by the Trustees of the University upon students who
are recommended therefor by the Faculty of the School of Law. Before a student
will be recommended for a degree, he must have satisfied the Faculty as to his
character and must have complied with the requirements of the degree for which
he is a candidate.'
DEGREE OF JURIS DOCTOR

�EXAMINATIONS AND GRADES

or Science, upon the satisfactory comp letion of the first year's work in the School
of Law with a grade average of not less than 68.
APPLICATION FOR DEGREE

Applica tion for a degree must be made in writing and filed with the Secretary
during the period the candidate is registered in the School. The graduation fee
must be pa id at the same time. r\n application for a degree will not be accepted
after a student's registration has terminated.

EXAMINATIONS
Regular exam in ations are given in all formal courses. They are for the purpose
of affording a basis for the detennination of the student's rela tive mastery of the
subject upon which he is examined. Although examinations provide the most
important source for this purpose, the written work done in connection with a
course, the preparation of assignments for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion, the contacts generally with the professor in charge incident to the development of a course, are all of great value in rating the standing of a student.
Examinations in individual or seminar studies may or may not be given, depending upon the character of the subject and the nature of the instruction.
No re-examination will be given in any course for the purpose of raising a
grade obtained therein on a prior examination unless the student again regularly
rakes the course, or in the case of individual studies, does further work as may
be required.
Students who are eligible, but for good reason are unable to take an examination, may with the permission of the Dean take the next regularly scheduled
examination in the course. l\o special examinations are given.

GRADES
The grading system is numerical. A grade of 85 or above 1·epresents work of
the highest distinction . Grades of 68 and above indicate various degrees of satisfactory work. Credit is given for courses in which the student receives a grade
from 55 through 67, but such grades indicate unsatisfactory work. No credit is
given for a course in which a grade of less than 55 is received.
A student who at the end of any tenu after his first term in School has failed
to maintain an average of 68 to that date is ineligible for further registration in
the School.
A student who fails t.o attain an average grade of 68 over his entire com·se is
. ineligible for a degree.
In studies and courses in which no formal exam ination is given, only grades of
P or F will be recorded, except that work done in seminars in which written papers
are required may be given a numerical grade.
Grades received at other schools are not considered in determining the average
grade.

12

�CURRICULUM
attendance for forty-one weeks in the year. H a student elects not to attend the
summer term, he may complete the course in three years.
INSTRUCTION

The work of the first year is designed to give the student an understanding of
the basic legal principles and concepts. In the second and third years, courses
dealing with related subject matters are scheduled in the same term where experieoce indicates that this is o[ advantage to the student. In the third year the
student is offered a choice among a number of courses and seminars. Although
the School in the work leading to the first degree in law does not attempt to train
specialists, it is possible in the third yea r for a student to devote a part of his time
to a specialized field.
In the basic courses of the first year case analysis predominates, but there is
also opportunity for lectures and library work as well as for exercises in written
and oral expression under close supervision of faculty and staff members. In the
second and third years, case analysis diminishes while problem study, seminars,
research, writing, discussion and lectures increase.
It is recognized that problems of law, especially those dealt with in the more
advanced courses, are closely related to problems of business and government.
Consequently, in order to provide adequate training for the practice of law, materials from other disciplines are integrated with legal studies and extensive use
is made of lecturers drawn not only from the profession but from the business
community and government.
LIMITATION OF WORK

Courses totaling 15 credit-hours in each semester, in the opinion of the Faculty,
represent the maximum amount of work which a good student can do effectively
under favorable conditions, and no student will be permitted to register for additional courses. A student who is under any serious handicap, such as physical
disability, the necessity of earning part of his expenses, or commuting for long
distances, should reduce his program. A student may be limited in his registration if in the op inion of rhe Dean he cannot undertake a full schedule with a
prospect of success.

�FOUNDATIONS AND SPECIAL FUNDS

decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and territories, Great
Britain, Canada, and Australia, together with their statutes and session laws, and all
subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, textbooks, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary to form a complete working collection of Anglo-American law. This collection is supplemented by a selection of publications in the fields
of history, economics, government, and the other social sciences. The Library receives every current legal periodical of general interest printed in the English
language.
In addition, there is a very representative collection of volumes on comparative
law, which includes the codes, decisions, and journals of all modern European
countries, adequate resources for research in Roman and mediaeval law, and a
good working collection of volumes on Japanese and Chinese law. The Theodore
S. Chapman and Robert 0. Farrell collections of Mexican law supplement a useful
group of some five thousand volumes on Latin-American Jaw. A large collection
of treatises and periodicals on international Jaw is supplemented by many treaties
and diplomatic documents, and the whole permits useful work to be carried on in
the field of public international law. The Library maintains a comprehensive collection of volumes and documents on the criminal law and its administration and
a special collection of materials on aeronautics, including aviation law, commerce,
and other works in the field, exclusive of technical engineering publications.
In connection with the University Centennial Celebration, the Northwestern
Law Alumni Association recently ra ised a fund of more than $15 0,000 for the purchase of books for the Library. This is called the John Henry Wigmore Library
Fund, in honor of the memory of the Dean of the School of Law from 1901 to
1929, whose great learning and scholarly interest contributed in such a vital way
to the building of the collection.
The Library is open daily throughout the year, and in the evenings as well
whenever the School is in session.

PICTURES
The School's collection of pictures, now numbering some 2,500 pieces, copiously
illustrates the history, personnel, and customs of the legal profession , not only in
Great Britain and the United States, but a ll over the world. It represents acquisitions accumulated during the past thirty years, partly by purchase, partly by gifts
from alumni and other friends. Personal search has been made in nearly every
country of Europe for portraits and scenes to illustrate other systems of law; many
of these are unique and irreplaceable.
The collection includes some forty oil painting·s, and about J,500 etchings and
engravings. A special series is a set of twenty large platinum photographs of portraits of eminent British judges in the National Gallery of Portraits, colored by a
London artist to show the costumes. The larger portraits are framed for display on
the walls of the lecture rooms, library reading room and corridors.

FOUNDATIONS AND SPECIAL FUNDS
THE JAMES NELSON AND ANNA LOUISE RAYMOND FOUNDATION

The James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation was established in
1926 by the late Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond through a gift of $200,000. The income from this fund, which was originally subject to certain annuities, provides a

The work of the clinic is under the direction of attorneys of the School of Law and
the staff of the Legal Aid Bureau of the United Charities. The work of the School
and that of the Legal Aid Bureau are highly co-ordinated. Indigent claimants and
defendants in every type of case are represented. The student comes in intimate

27

�FOUNDATIONS AND SPECIAL FUNDS
contact with the routine and problems of office practice and litigation genera lly.
The claims successfully prosecuted aggregate thousands of dollars annua lly, and the

For details of the clinic work required, see the Curriculum.
In co nnection with the work of the legal clinics, Mrs. Anna Louise Rayrnond
established the James Ne lson Raymond Fellowship, by gifts totaling $40,000, the

easy commuting distance of the School are expected to live in Abbott Hall. It is
designed to provide convenient and attractive living quarters and to provide an
atmosphere in which may be developed all those qualities of personality which
are so essential to a lawyer, but which for the most part fall outside the sphere
of formal training.
The building, eighteen stories high, overlooks Lake Michigan on Lake Shore
Drive from Huron to Superior Street. It is constructed of Indiana limestone and
conforms in architectural style to the classroom buildings on the campus. The
first two floors and the basement are given over to common rooms for social and
recreational purposes, the upper sixteen to private accommodations. The first floor
contains general waiting rooms and offices and a series of shops. On the second
floor is a large student lounge; also a fountain-grill, and two large dining rooms

women where rooms are available for women law students. Double study-bedrooms,
some of them with private baths, are available. Rooms are equipped with desks of
modern design, dressers, and beds with inner-spring mattresses. All rooms are provided with chairs, rugs, draperies, bookcases, and floor lamps. Each room has a
double closet. (Trunks are stored in the baggage room in the basement.) Bed linens,
blankets, and towels are included in the furnishings, and daily maid service is given.

��LAW STUDY AT NORTHWESTERN
If you are planning to study law and are faced with the problem of
choosing a law school, you naturally want to learn as much as you can
about each of the schools which you are considering. This booklet is
designed to help you by giving you additional information about
Northwestern. It supplements the more formal statements of the official
bulletin.
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
Northwestern Law_ School, as it is today, bears the stamp of John
Henry Wigmore, author of the great treatise on Evidence, one of the
most distinguished legal scholars of all time, and Dean of the School from
1901 to 1929. Under his guidance Northwestern achieved the character
of a national law school; it became identified with forward-looking
movements in legal education; and it adopted a policy of maintaining a
student body of limited size. Wigmore's great contributions to the
Law School were carried forward
under the able leadership of· Leon
Green, outstanding legal scholar
in the field of Torts and Dean of
the School until 1947.
When it is said that Iorthwestern is a national law school, the
meaning is that its program is designed to provide a broad training
in the techniques of th e law and to
give to the student a foundation
that will enable him to work with
legal materials. It does not concentrate upon imparting a knowledge
of the legal rules applicable in one

�jurisdiction. It is fair to say, however, that the distinction between a "national" and a "local" law school is not as sharp as is sometimes represented.
All schools of any stature place primary emphasis upon the development of
skills rather than upon imparting knowledge and the instruction in all of the
national schools tends to reflect the interest of faculty members in legal developments in the area where the school is located. The difference in the
breadth of the training then is one of degree. The "national" character of a
school results partly from the fact that its students are drawn from various
parts of the country and its graduates are engaged in practice in many states.
The forward-looking character of legal education at Northwestern
established in Wigmore's time is attested by a number of pioneering
efforts. This School was the first to establish an extensive legal clinic
where students as a part of their training have the opportunity to interview
clients and to take a part in the conduct of cases in the courts. The curriculum here was among the first to show increased emphasis upon public
law when the practice of law came to be concerned more and more with
gO!fernmental matters. The "problem" method which is receiving so much
acclaim today was first used at Northwestern in the years before the war.
The School continues to seek improvement in educational methods both
in the matter of curriculum content and in the techniques used in the
classroom.
The third characteristic mentioned above has to do with the size
of the student body. Many years ago a policy of selective admission was
adopted in order to maintain a student body of high quality and
sufficiently small to afford opportunity for close relationships among the
students and between students and Faculty. It was felt that the best
work on the part of students can be encouraged through the development
of a true professional atmosphere, and that the education of large
numbers is not well suited for achieving this purpose. In the matter of
size, the pressing demand for legal education in the years immediately
following World War II dictated some concession, and the enrollment
was permitted to rise temporarily beyond the ideal. Today, however,
the student body numbers approximately 300 and it is planned to
maintain it at or near that level.

��PROGRAM OF LE GAL EDUCAT I ON
As in other American law schools, most of the instruction at
Northwestern is conducted by the case method. There are several special
features of the program, however, which should be mentioned and some
of these mark modifications or departures from the case method as it is
usually employed:
(1) In a number of the courses, the organization and presentation
of materials developed in this School are designed to emphasize the
great importance of facts and to develop skill in dealing with them.
(2) The problem method, previously referred to, is used extensively
in the advanced courses. Essentially this method contemplates that,
instead of merely studying cases already decided, the student is presented with new problems and is required to read cases, statutes, and
other materials in order to arrive at some solution. The subject of
Taxation, for which a large place is made in the curriculum, is taught
entirely by this method.
( 3) In the first semester of the third year the work is concentrated
upon the various aspects of corporate industry. Separate courses cover
the relations of the corporation (a) with stockholders, (b) with employees, and (c) with customers and competitors. There are also
seminars on "Law and the Industrial Society" in which the students
have the opportunity to consider problems of corporate industry as a
whole, thus integrating the work covered in the various courses.
(4) In the third year, also, in addition to other elective courses, the
student has a wide choice of seminars. These afford the opportunity for
intensive study in small groups of from ten to twenty students each.
Many of these seminars are devoted principally to problems of counseling
·
and drafting.

THE FACULTY
More than 80% of the instruction in the School is given by full-time
teachers. This is in accordance with the best modern thought on legal
education. With a light teaching schedule of from four to six classes

UPPER Students a t work in the Li b rary.

�per week, each Faculty member is able to spend considerable time
working individually with students on the Law Review and other
projects, to carry on studies and writing in his field of specialization, and
to take an active part in movements to bring about improvements in the
law and in the administration of justice. Members of the Faculty also
lecture extensively before bar associations and other groups who are
interested in keeping abreast of legal developments. Altho ugh devoting
full time to the interests of the Law School, every fu ll -time member
of the Northwestern Law Faculty has had experience in the practice
of law, and many often are called upon to serve as consultants.
Although the Law School program is thus carried on primarily by
full-time teachers, the lawyers and judges who teach on a part-time basis
make a distinct contribution to legal education at Northwestern. The
location of the School, only about a mile and a half from the courts
and most of the Chicago law offices, places it in a unique position to
utilize their services to the best advantage. The close collaboration
between full-time and part-time Faculty members is helpfu I to both
groups, and the students gain from thi~ conlact with the men who are
active in the practice or on the bench.

STUDE NT-FAC ULTY RELAT I D NS
As previously suggested, the relative] y small student body provides
the maximum opportunity for close student-Faculty relations. This
feature of Northwestern is facilitated in a number of ways. In planning
the law building Dean Wigmore insisted that the Faculty offices should
open on the corridors rather than in the library stacks in order to
encourage students to consult with their instructors. Frequent coffee
hours sponsored by the Junior Bar Association- the student organiza tion
- provide an opportunity for the mingling of students and Faculty on
a social plane. At some time du ring his first year each student is
entertained in the home of a member of the Faculty.

���LEGAL PUBLICATIONS
The School publishes a professional journal which is circulated
widely among judges and lawyers and is often cited in briefs and
judicial opinions. It is called the Northwestern University Law Review
and is edited by the students. As in many other law schools, high ranking
students in the second-year class are given the opportunity to compete
for election to the Board of Editors of the Law Review. The fact that
the student body at Northwestern is not large means that the percentage
of the student body having this chance is higher than in some of the
other schools. Students also write for the Journal of Criminal Law,
Criminology and Police Science, published by the School and having a
large circulation throughout the world; and there is a student section _
in the Journal of Air Law and Commerce, sponsored jointly by the Law
School and the Northwestern School of Commerce.
Although the Law Review students work hard, they take one day off
every spring in which they play a softball game with the Faculty and
hold a dinner where the principal sport is caricaturing the foibles of
their professors.

BUILDINGS
Levy Mayer Hall, Elbert H. Gary Library, and Abbott Hall are
described in the Law School bulletin. For those of you who are not in
a position to visit the School, several exterior and interior views are
provided in this booklet.

FINANCIAL AID

If you have the ability and the motivation necessary for law study,
the School is committed to providing all possible assistance for you so
that you will not be deterred in realizing your ambition by a lack of
financial means. Through scholarships, student loans, and a limited
amount of part-time work, many students in the past have completed
their law studies at Northwestern with a minimum of initial saving
and outside financial assistance. Needless to say, however, if you have

base runner is Mr. Justice Schaefer.

�some resources to begin with, you will be in a better position to carry
successfully the heavy burden of legal study.
In addition to graduate fellowships, the School provides about fifty
scholarships annually available to students who are candidates for the
first degree in law. Many of these are for full tuition or more. The
various scholarship funds are described in the bulletin.
University loans are made to students without interest until
graduation. Those who have not previously attended any school of
Northwestern University are eligible after attendance for one semester.
Monitorships in the Gary Library and board jobs at Abbott Hall or
at neighboring hospital s provide light work which most students can
handle without harm to their studies. Many other opportunities for parttime employment exist in the city, but if a student holds a job that encroaches
to any considerable degree on his hours for study, it may be desirable for
him to reduce his program.

RECREATION AND SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
The law student soon learns the truth of the old saying that " the
law is a jealous mistress." He will not be able to indulge extensively in
amusements or spend much time in attending social events. Nevertheless,
no man or woman can accomplish a maximum of work without a
reasonable amount of recreation. This is available at Northwestern and
is in part under the sponsorship of the Junior Bar Association and the
legal fraternities. The former holds a dance open to all students and
their dates once each semester. Other parties are held from time to time
by the fraternities.
Each student receives an invitation to join a fraternity and none of
these follows any discriminatory policy in the matter of membership.
Members do not live or eat together and lines are not sharply drawn.
The fraternities do, however, arrange for quite a number of occasions
which have professional as well as recreational value. The inter-fraternity
ath letic program provides an intramural sports interest.
Many opportunities for entertainment and cultural pursuits afforded
in a city like Chicago are close at hand.

��GRADUATES
A final word concerning the alumni. For, although the information
about the School's program and the conditions of student life may be
of interest to you, you will also want to know about the product.
It is of course impossible to list all of the alumni achievements, hut
a few of the facts may he stated. Among the younger graduates, eleven
have in recent years served with distinction as law clerks for Justices
of the Supreme Court of the United States. Others have made their marks
in the best law offices of the country and in the departments of the
government.
Throughout the ye, rs many of the older alumni have held high
judicial positions in the federal and state courts. Others are partners in
leading law firms. They have been active in the work of the organized
bar. Within nine years three have served as president of the Chicago
Bar Association and one was President of the American Bar Association.
Also included among the Northwestern graduates have been several
governors and candidates for President of the United States, as well as
many holders of other significant governmental positions.
If your final choice in the matter of a law school should he Northwestern and you complete your legal studies successfully, it is believed
that you will find continuing satisfaction in being a member of the
great alumni body of the School.

NOR THvVESTERN UNIVERSITY
ORIGIN AND GROWTH
A charter establishing "the North Western University" was granted on January
28, 1851, to nine young Chicagoans-three lawyers, a physician, two businessmen,
and three leading Methodist ministers. It was their dream to establish "a university
of the highest order of excellence" to meet the educational needs of the rapidly •
developing territory of the northwest.
They decided to set up their university, not in the raw metropolis of Chicago,
but in the virgin wilderness twelve miles to the north. With their meager funds
they bought 380 acres of land, now the campus and the central part of the city

�LOCATION AND BUILDINGS

of Evanston, erected a modest fram e building, and in November, 1855, opened
their "university." It consisted of ten young men and two professors.
Despite the difficulties caused by the Civil War, recurring financial panics, and
the disastrous Chicago fire of 1871 , th e young university survived and grew. Gradually professional schools of medicine, law,.and dentistry were affiliated. Specialized
new departments branched out from the original "College of Literature and
Science." In 1869 a daring step was taken and women were admitted.
One of the momentous events in the University's history occurred in 1926,
when the great Chicago Campus was dedica ted . Its magnificent buildings house the
School of Law, the Medical and Dental Schools, the graduate division of the
School of Commerce, and the Evening Divisions of the University.
Today Northwestern is an institution of world-wide influence, with 80,000
living alumni. Its thirteen schools are located on two campuses, with land and
buildings valued at $45,000,000. The full-time enrollment of the University is
about 8,400 students; of this number approximately 6,700 are enrolled on the Evanston Campus. The faculty consists of approximately 1,190 members. The bound
volumes in the libraries of the University total approximately 1,112,000. Through
the years it has given educational training to more than a quarter of a million students, made many significant contributions to knowledge through research, and
benefited thousands through its clinics.

THE LAW SCHOOL
FOUNDING AND LOCATION

T

was founded in 1859 by Thomas Hoyne. In 1873, as the
Union College of Law, it came under the joint control of Northwestern University and the old University of Chicago. When the latter institution ceased to
exist, the School came under the control of Northwestern University, and in 1891
became Northwestern University School of Law. The School is located on the
Chicago Campus in two buildings erected in 1925, overlooking Lake Michigan at
Lake Shore Drive and Chicago Avenue, within a few minutes' walk of Chicago's
Loop district.
HE SCHOOL OF LAW

BUILDINGS
Levy Mayer Hall is the gift of the late Mrs. Levy Mayer in memory of her
husband , an eminent member of the Chicago bar. The Elbert H. Gary Library
Building and the library which it houses are the gifts of the late Elbert H. Gary,
of the Class of 1867. A beautiful cloistered garden, enclosed by an arched wall
connecting the wings of the two buildings, is the gift of Mrs. Hortense Mayer
Hirsch, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Levy Mayer.
The main entrance to Levy Mayer Hall is on Chicago Avenue. On the first
floor is the entrance lobby, which opens to the south onto the garden arcade;
to the east into Lowden Hall, a commodious lounge named for Governor Frank
O. Lowden, one of the School's distinguished alumni. To the west, a corridor leads
to majestic Lincoln Hall, which has a seating capacity of approximately four
hundred persons.
On the second floor are the general offices overlooking the garden, professors'
offices, and Booth Hall, with a seating capacity of 140, named for Henry Booth, the

�PROGRAM OF THE SCHOOL

first professor and dean of the School from 1859 to 1891. The entrance to the
alcoved reading room of Elbert H. Gary Library is also on this floor. From within,
the two buildings seem as one.
On the third floor are the Faculty Room, professors' offices, Hoyne Hall, named
for Thomas Hoyne, the founder of the School, and Hurd Hall, named for Harvey
Bostwick Hurd, a professor from 1863 to 1902, both classrooms with seating capacities of 80 to 100 persons.
On the fourth floor are study and seminar rooms, each of which accommodates
from six to fifteen students. On the ground floor are lockers, storage and supply
rooms, mimeographing service, vaults, showers, etc.
The halls, classrooms, offices, lounges, study alld reading rooms of the buildings are spacious and artistically finished and appointed. On the walls are numerous paintings and etchings of eminent judges and lawyers from many countries,
also many reproductions and photographs of documents, trials, and persons famous
in legal history.
The surroundings of gardens, parks, and Lake Michigan and the tall buildings
of the other schools to the west give the School seclusion in the heart of a great city.

PROGRAM OF THE SCHOOL
The School does not confine its interests to any particular locality or region.
Its students are drawn from all parts of the country and indeed from all over the
world. Nevertheless, its geographical location presents opportunities and imposes
responsibilities which are influential in shaping its program.
The Middle Western region includes a wide variety of interests. Here are the
instruments of industry and trade in all of their forms, centers of control for extensive business enterprise, institutions that supply credit, protection, communication, transportation, and numerous other services; and here necessarily are agencies
of government at all levels. It is possible for the School to draw upon this area for
much that is valuable in its educational program. Leaders of the legal profession,
of government, and of business are within reach to share with students and faculty
their wisdom and experience. Faculty members, working in bar association committees, counseling in government, arbitrating disputes between management and
labor and otherwise participating in the affairs of the community, are able to
impart to the classroom discussions an increased significance and vitality.
The School also recognizes its responsibility in contributing a service to the
interests and population of this area and in training young men and women in
the processes of law and government to deal with the multitude of problems and
conflicts that necessarily arise in a section which concentrates so varied an assortment of activities within a single community. To this end it offers training in
the skills and tradition of the lawyer's craft; it provides scholarships and fellowships for those who show high promise and would otherwise be unable to obtain
adequate professional training. The periodicals which it publishes foster research
by students and faculty and provide a means of making available the results to
the bar and to the public. Buildings, library and living quarters furnish a
stimulating environment for a wholesome intellectual and professional life. The
program as a whole is designed to maintain a close contact with the current realities of the legal world, and at the same time to hold fast to the cultural values
essential to a learned profession.

�ADMISSION
New students are admitted at the beginning of the first semester. Under special
circumstances when there is a sufficient demand, provision may be made for the
admission of new students in February or June.
An applicant for admission must have obtained a bachelor's degree in arts or
science from an approved coJlege, or must have completed three years of acceptable study (90 semester-hours or the equivalent) in an approved coJlege.
A complete transcript of the applicant's college record and of any work done
in a professional or other school, together with evidence of any degree he may
have received, must be filed with his application, or as soon thereafter as it can
be obtained. A photograph of the applicant must also be filed with the application. If there have been appreciable intervals during the course or since the com pletion of his college work, the applicant must indicate his activities during such
intervals, and if he has been employed, must give the names and addresses of his
employers and submit statements from them showing the type and quality of
service applicant has rendered and the reasons for the termination of such service.
Servicemen will be supplied forms for indicating their military service records.

All applicants for admission are required to take the Law School Admission
Test, administered by the Educational Testing Service.• The test may be taken
whether or not application for admission has been previously filed. The test scores
will be used to supplement coJlege records, recommendations, interviews, and
other factors bearing upon admission to law school.
An application must be accompanied by the application fee of $5 which will
not be returned. If the applicant attends, the $5 fee will be applied as a payment
on other fees. Applicants accepted for admission are required to make a deposit of
$25 within thirty days after notice of acceptance. This deposit will not be refunded,
but will be applied as part payment of tuition.
If the applicant resides in or near Chicago, he may be requested to come to the
School for a conference.
In the discretion of the Dean, applicants not exceeding ten in number for
any one year who do not meet the minimum requirements for admission but who
possess the general educational qualifications for admission to the Illinois bar may
be admitted as special students not candidates for a degree.
The admission of students from other law schools as candidates for a degree
and the granting of advanced standing for credits obtained in any such school
rest within the discretion of the Dean of the School. Students of other schools
may be admitted for a single term or for certain courses on a certificate of good
standing.
No applicant will be admitted who has been denied readmission to another
law school.
Auditors who are not candidates for a degree may be admitted to certain courses
in such numbers as will not interfere with the work of the students registered for
such courses.
The School reserves the right to deny admission to any applicant for any reason
which it considers adequate.
Forms for making application will be supplied on request.
•The School of Law, together with a number of other law schools, is cooperating in the
administration of this test. It is given in many colleges and universities throughout the
country, so that a minimum of travel is required. No special preparation is necessary. For
detailed information and application blanks, write to the Educational Testing Service, P. 0.

�PRELEGAL STUDY
Among the many values to be derived from college study, maturity is of peculiar importance to the study of Jaw. Such maturity comes from rigorous intellectual discipline deri ved from the mastery of any study undertaken by a student,
rather than from the mere content of the subject matter. Although students may
enter the School of Law with three years of college preparation, it is the opinion
of the Faculty that, except under special circumstances, only relatively mature
students should enter before securing an academic degree.
The preparation for the study of law is an individual problem. Ordinarily a
student would do well to follow a Bachelor of Arts or Science program with
emphasis on English, history, economics, and political science. In addition, time
should be found for courses in speech, accounting, and statistical method. But
students differ widely in their tastes, and college courses vary greatly in the stimulation and discipline afforded the student. The School, therefore, does not prescribe particular courses for admission. In this it follows the policy of the Association of American Law Schools. Students who are preparing to enter the School of
Law should consult with their co ll ege prelegal advisers.

DEGREES
Degrees will be conferred by the Trustees of the University upon students who
are recommended therefor by the Faculty of the School of Law. Before a student
will be recommended for a degree, he must have satisfied the Faculty as to his
character and must have complied with the requirements of the degree for which
he is a candidate.
DEGREE OF JURIS DOCTOR
The degree of Juris Doctor will be conferred upon students admitted on the
basis of a bachelor's degree in arts or science from an approved college (not
including any credit for law study) upon the satisfactory completion of 90 semesterhours of credit in the School of Law, during a residence period of three academic
years or the equivalent. The last year must be in residence at Northwestern University School of Law, and in the case of students transferring from another law
school, a minimum of thirty semester-hours of credit must be earned in this University.
\1/here in the opinion of the Faculty the candidate's record of scholarship is one
of distinction or special distinction , the degree of Juris Doctor may be awarded
cum laude or magna cum laude.
DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF LAWS
I. The degree of Bachelor of Laws will be conferred upon students admitted on
the basis of three years (90 semester-hours or the equivalent) of satisfactory credit

rank of graduate fellow and are accorded many of the privileges of members of
the Faculty. The opportunities afforded by the School and the community for
graduate study are in all practical respects unlimited.

COMBINED DEGREES
DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF ARTS
1. Th e degree of Bachelor of Arts will be conferred upon students who have
secured credit in the College of Liberal Arts of this U niversity for 135 quarterhours , in accordance with its requirements (see th e University Register for p articulars) , upon the further satisfactory completion of 27 semester-hours of the

of college credit, and who are not candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts
or Science, upon the satisfactory completion of the first year's work in the School
of Law with a grade average of not less than 68.
APPLICATION FOR DEGREE

Application for a degree must be made in writing and filed with the Secretary
during the period the candidate is registered in the School. The graduation fee
must be paid at the same time. An application for a degree will not be accepted
after a student's registration has terminated.

12

�EXAMINATIONS
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. They are for the purpose
of affording a basis for the determination of the student's relative mastery of the
subject upon which he is examined. Although examinations provide the most
important source for this purpose, the written work done in connection with a
course, the preparation of assignments for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion, the contacts generally with the professor in charge incident to the development of a course, are all of great value in rating the standing of a student.
Examinations in individual or seminar studies may or may not be given, depending upon the character of the subject and the nature of the instruction.
No re-examination will be given in any course for the purpose of raising a
grade obtained therein on a prior examination unless the student again regularly
takes the course, or in the case of individual studies, does further work as may
be required.
Students who are eligible, but for good reason are unable to take an examination, may with the permission of the Dean take the next regularly scheduled
examination in the course. No special examinations are given.

GRADES
The grading system is numerical. A grade of 85 or above 1·epresents work of
the highest distinction. Grades of 68 and above indicate various degrees of satisfactory work. Credit is given for courses in which the student receives a grade
from 55 through 67 , but such grades indicate unsatisfactory work. No credit is
given for a course in which a grade of less than 55 is received.
A student who at the end of any term after his first term in School has failed
to maintain an average of 68 to that date is ineligible for further registration in
the School.
A student who fails to attain an average grade of 68 over his entire course is
ineligible for a degree.
In studies and courses in which no formal examination is given, only grades of
P or F will be recorded, except that work done in seminars in which written papers
are required may be given a numerical grade.
Grades received at other schools are not considered in determining the average
grade.

CURRICULUM*
1955-56
TIME

By attending in the summer terms a student may complete his entire course
in less than twenty-nine months from the date of entrance. This program requires
attendance for forty-one weeks in the year. If a student elects not to attend the
summer term, he may complete the course in three years.
INSTRUCTION

The work of the first year is designed to give the student an understanding of
the basic legal principles and concepts. In the second and third years, courses
dealing with related subject matters are scheduled in the same term where experience indicates that this is of advantage to the student. In the third year the

�CURRICULUM
student is offered a choice among a number of courses and seminars. Although
the School in the work leading to the first degree in law does not attempt to train
specialists, it is possible in the third year for a student to devote a part of his time
to a specialized field.
In the basic courses of the first year case analysis predominates, but there is
also opportunity for lectures and library work as well as for exercises in written
and oral expression under close supervision of faculty and staff members. In the
second and third years, case analysis diminishes while problem study, seminars,
research, writing, discussion and lectures increase.
It is recognized that problems of law, especia ll y those dealt with in th e more
advanced courses, are closely related to problems of business and government.
Consequently, in order to provide adequate training for the practice of law, materials from other disciplines are integrated with legal studies and extensive use
is made of lecturers drawn not only from the profession but from the business
community and government.
LIMITATION OF WORK

Courses totaling 15 credit-hours in each semester, in the opinion of the Faculty,
represent the maximum amount of work which a good student can do effectively
under favorable conditions, and no student will be permitted to register for additional courses. A student who is under any serious handicap, such as physical
disability, the necessity of earning part of his expenses, or commuting for long
distances, should reduce his program. A student may be limited in his registration if in the opinion of the Dean he cannot undertake a full schedule with a
prospect of success.

or other fees, or against whom the University holds record of indebtedness, will be
given a diploma of graduation, a certificate of scholastic standing, or a transcript
-o f record, until such indebtedness has been fully paid. A student who owes tuition

law school libraries in the United States and includes substantially all the reported
decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and territories, Great

the field of public international law. The Library maintains a comprehensive collection of volumes and documents on the criminal law and its administration and
a special collection of materials on aeronautics, including aviation law, commerce,
and other works in the field, exclusive of technical engineering publications.

Law Alumni Association recently raised a fund of more than $150,000 for the purchase of books for the Library. This is called the John Henry Wigmore Library
Fund, in honor of the memory of the Dean of the School of Law from 1901 to
1929, whose great learning and scholarly interest contributed in such a vital way
to the building of the collection.
The Library is open daily throughout the year, and in the evenings as well
whenever the School is in session.

PICTURES
The School's collection of pictures, now numbering some 2,500 pieces, copiously
illustrates the history, personnel, and customs of the legal profession, not only in
Great Britain and the United States, but all over the world. It represents acquisitions accumulated during the past thirty years, partly by purchase, partly by gifts
from alumni and other friends . Personal search has been made in nearly every
country of Europe for portraits and scenes to illustrate other systems of law; many
of these are unique and irreplaceable.
The collection includes some forty oil paintings, and about 1,500 etchings and
engravings. A special series is a set of twenty large platinum photographs of portraits of eminent British judges in the National Gallery of Portraits, colored by a
London artist to show the costumes. The larger portraits are framed for display on
the walls of the lecture rooms, library reading room and corridors.

�FOUNDATIONS AND SPECIAL FUNDS
THE JAMES NELSON AND ANNA LOUISE RAYMOND FOUNDATION
The J ames Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation was established in
1926 by the late Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond through a gift of $200,000. The income from this. fund, which was originally subject to certain annuities, provides a
legal clinic for the poor. It was organized under the superintendence of a joint committee of th e School of Law, United Chari ties, a nd the Chicago Bar Associa tion .
The work of the clinic is under the direction of attorneys of the School of Law a nd
the staff of th e Legal Aid Bu reau of the United Charities. The work of the School
and tha t of the Legal Aid Bureau are highly co-ordinated. Indigent claima nts a nd
defendants in every type of case are represented. The student comes in intimate
contact with the routine and problems of office practice and litigation generally.
The claims successfully p rosecuted aggrega te thousands of doll ars annually, and the
legitimate defenses afforded indigent persons are equally valuable. The Foundation and clinics were the first to be set up on behalf of a law school.
For de tails of the clinic work required, see the Curriculum.
In connection with the work of the legal clinics, Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond
established the James Nelson Raymond Fellowship, by gifts totaling $40,000, the
income from the Fund to be awarded annu ally for graduate fellowships. See Fellowships, Scholarships, Prizes.

terms of the will of the late Lessing Rosenthal.
Julius Rosenthal (1828-1905) was an eminent and beloved member of the Chicago bar and Librarian of the Chicago Law Institute for nearly forty years. He was
the most learned lawyer of his time in Chicago, did more than any other man to

a publisher; by the aid or encouragement of research in the field of legal literature, a nd of the preparation for publication in whole or in part of the results of
such research; by the delivery and publication of lectures on subjects concerning

UNIVERSITY

ORIGIN AND GROWTH
A charter establishing "the North Western University" was granted on January
28, 1851, to nine young Chicagoans-three lawyers, a physician, two businessmen ,
and three leading Methodist ministers. It was their dream to establish "a university
of the highest order of excellence" to meet the educational needs of the rapidly
developing territory of the northwest.
They decided to set up their university, not in the raw metropolis of Chicago,
but in the virgin wilderness twelve miles to the north. With their meager funds
they bought 380 acres of land, now the campus and the central part of the city
8

�LOCATION AND BUILDINGS

of Evanston, erected a modest frame building, and in November, 1855, opened
their "university." It consisted of ten young men and two professors.
Despite the difficulties caused by the Civil War, recurring financial panics, and
the disastrous Chicago fire of 1871, the young university survived and grew. Gradually professional schools of medicine, Jaw, and dentistry were affiliated. Specialized
new departments branched out from the original "College of Literature and
Science." In 1869 a daring step was taken and women were admitted.
One of the momentous events in the University's history occurred in 1926,
when the great Chicago Campus was dedicated. Its magnificent buildings for the
School of Law, the Medical and Dental Schools, and the evening divisions were
the finest in the country. Later the evening and graduate Schools of Commerce
were established.
Today Northwestern is an institution of world-wide influence, with 80,000
living alumni. Its thirteen schools are located on two campuses, with land and
buildings valued at $37,000,000. The full-time enrollment of the University is
about 8,000 students; of this number approximately 6,300 are enrolled on the Evanston Campus. The faculty consists of approximately 1,140 members. The bound
volumes in the libraries of the University total approximately 1,112,000. Through
the years it has given educational training to more than a quarter of a million students, made many significant contributions to knowledge through research, and
benefited thousands through its clinics.

THE LAW SCHOOL
FOUNDING AND LOCATION
was founded in 1859 by Thomas Hoyne. In 1873, as the
Union College of Law, it came under the joint control of Northwestern University and the old University of Chicago. When the latter institution ceased to
exist, the School came under the control of Northwestern University, and in 1891
became Northwestern University School of Law. The School is located on the
Chicago Campus in two buildings erected in 1925, overlooking Lake Michigan at
Lake Shore Drive and Chicago Avenue, within a few minutes' walk of Chicago's
Loop district.

T

HE SCHOOL OF LAW

BUILDINGS
Levy Mayer Hall is the gift of the late Mrs. Levy Mayer in memory of her
husband, an eminent member of the Chicago bar. The Elbert H. Gary Library
Building and the library which it houses are the gifts of the late Elbert H . Gary,
of the Class of 1867. A beautiful cloistered garden, enclosed by an arched wall
connecting . the wings of the two buildings, is the gift of Mrs. Hortense Mayer
Hirsch, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Levy Mayer.
The main entrance to Levy Mayer Hall is on Chicago Avenue. On the first
floor is the entrance lobby, which opens to the south onto the garden arcade;
to the east into Lowden Hall, a commodious lounge named for Governor Frank
0. Lowden, one of the School's distinguished alumni. To the west, a corridor leads
to majestic Lincoln Hall, which has a seating capacity of approximately four
hundred persons.
On the second floor are the general offices overlooking the garden, professors'
offices, and Booth Hall, with a seating capacity of 140, named for Henry Booth, the

first professor and dean of the School from 1859 to 1891. The entrance to the
alcoved reading room of Elbert H. Gary Library, the Librarian's office, and the
offices and stack rooms beneath is also on this floor. From within, the two buildings seem as one.
On the third floor are the Faculty Room, professors' offices, Hoyne Hall, named
for Thomas Hoyne, the founder of the School, and Hurd Hall, named for Harvey
Bostwick Hurd, a professor from 1863 to 1902, both classrooms with seating capacities of 80 to 100 persons.
On the fourth floor are study and seminar rooms, each of which accommodates
from six to fifteen students. On the ground floor are lockers, storage and supply
rooms, mimeographing service, vaults, showers, etc.
The halls, classrooms, offices, lounges, study and reading rooms of the buildings are spacious and artistically finished and appointed. On the walls are numerous paintings and etchings of eminent judges and lawyers from many countries,
also many reproductions and photographs of documents, trials, and persons famous
in legal history.
The surroundings of gardens, parks, and Lake Michigan and the tall buildings
of the other schools to the west give the School seclusion in the heart of a great city.

PROGRAM OF THE SCHOOL
The School does not confine its interests to any particular locality or region.
Its students are drawn from all parts of the country and indeed from all over the
world. Nevertheless, its geographical location presents opportunities and imposes
responsibilities which are influential in shaping its program.
The Middle Western region includes a wide variety of interests. Here are the
instruments of industry and trade in all of their forms, centers of control for extensive business enterprise, institutions that supply credit, protection, communication, transportation, and numerous other services; and here necessarily are agencies
of government at all levels. It is possible for the School to draw upon this area for
much that is valuable in its educational program. Leaders of the legal profession,
of government, and of business are within reach to share with students and faculty
their wisdom and experience. Faculty members, working in bar association com·
mittees, counseling in government, arbitrating disputes between management and
labor and otherwise participating in the affairs of the community, are able to
impart to the classroom discussions an increased significance and vitality.
The School also recognizes its responsibility in contributing a service to the
interests and population of this area and in training young men and women in
the processes of law and government to deal with the multitude of problems and
conflicts. that necessarily arise in a section which concentrates so varied an assort·
ment of activities within a single community. To this end it offers training in
the skills and tradition of the lawyer's craft; it provides scholarships and fellowships for those who show high promise and would otherwise be unable to obtain
adequate professional training. The periodicals which it publishes foster research
by students and faculty and provide a means of making available the results to
the bar and to the public. Buildings, library and living quarters furnish a
stimulating environment for a wholesome intellectual and professional life. The
program as a whole is designed to maintain a close contact with the current realities of the legal world, and at the same time to hold fast to the cultural values
essential to a learned profession.

�ADMISSION
New students are admitted at the beginning of the first semester. Under special
circumstances when there is a sufficient demand , provision may be made for the
admission of new students in February or June.
An applicant for admission must have obtained a bach elor's d egree in arts or
science from an approved college, or must h ave comple ted three years of acceptable study (90 semester-hours or the equivalent) in an approved college.
A complete transcript of the applicant's college record and of any work don e
in a professional or other school, together with evidence of an y degree he may
have received, must be filed with his application, or as soon thereafter as it can
be obtained. A photograph of the applicant must also be filed with the application. If there have been appreciable inter-vals during the course or since the completion of his college work, the applicant must indicate his activities during such
intervals, and if he has been employed, must give the names and addresses of his
employers and submit statements from them showing the type and quality of
service applicant has rendered and the reasons for the termination of such service.
Servicemen will be supplied forms for indicating their military service records.

All applicants for admission are required to take the Law School Admission
Test, administered by the Educational Testing Service.• The test may be taken
whether or not application for admission has been previously filed. The test scores
will be used to supplement college records, recommendations, interviews, and
other factors bearing upon admission to law school.
An application must be accompanied by the application fee of $5 which will
not be returned. If the applicant attends , the $5 fee will be applied as a payment
on other fees. Applicants accepted for admission are required to m ake a deposit of
$25 within thirty days after notice of acceptance. This deposit will not be refunded ,
but will be applied as part payment of tuition.
If the applicant resides in or near Chicago, he may be requested to come to the
School for a conference.
In the discretion of the Dean, applicants not exceeding ten in number for
any one year who do not meet the minimum requirements for admission but who
possess the general educational qualifications for admission to the Illinois bar may
be admitted as special stud_ents not candidates for a degree.
The admission of students from other law schools as candidates for a degree
and the granting of advanced standing for credits obtained in any such school
rest within the discretion of the Dean of the School. Students of other schools
may be admitted for a single term or for certain courses on a certifica te of good
standing.
No applicant will be admitted who has been denied readmission to another
law school.
Auditors who are not candidates for a degree may be admitted to certain courses
in such numbers as will not interfere with the work of the students registered for
such courses.
The School reserves the right to deny admission to any applicant for any reason
which it considers adequate.
Forms for making application will be supplied on request.
*The School of Law, together with a number of other law schools, is cooperating in the
administration of this test. It is given in many colleges and uni versities throughout the
country, so that a minimum of travel is required. No speci al preparation is necessary. For
detailed information and application blanks, write to the Educational T esting Service, P . 0.

�PRELEGAL STUDY
Among the many values to be derived from college study, maturity is of peculiar importance to the study of law. Such maturity comes from rigorous intellectual discipline derived from the mastery of any study undertaken by a student,
rather than from the mere content of the subject matter. Although students may
enter the School of Law with three years of college preparation, it is the opinion
of the Faculty that, except under special circumstances, only relatively mature
students should enter before securing an academic degree.
The preparation for the study of law is an individual problem. Ordinarily a
student would do well to follow a Bachelor of Arts or Science program with
emphasis on English, history, economics, and political science. In addition, time
should be found for courses in speech, accounting, and statistical method. But
students differ widely in their tastes, and college courses vary greatly in the stimulation and discipline afforded the student. The School, therefore, does not prescribe particular courses for admission. In this it follows the policy of the Association of American Law Schools. Students who are preparing to enter the School of
Law should consult with their college prelegal advisers.

DEGREES
Degrees will be conferred by the Trustees of the University upon students who
are recommended therefor by the Faculty of the School of Law. Before a student
will be recommended for a degree, he must have satisfied the Faculty as to his
character and must have complied with the requirements of the degree for which
he is a candidate.
DEGREE OF JURIS DOCTOR

The degree of Juris Doctor will be conferred upon students admitted on the
basis of a bachelor's degree in arts or science from an approved college (not
including any credit for law study) upon the satisfactory completion of 90 semesterhours of credit in the School of Law, during a residence period of three academic
years or the equivalent. The last year must be in residence at Northwestern University School of Law, and in the case of students transferring from another law
school, a minimum of thirty semester-hours of credit must be earned in this University.
Where in the opinion of the Faculty the candidate's record of scholarship is one
of distinction or special distinction, the degree of Juris Doctor may be awarded
cum laude or magna cum laude.
DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF LAWS
I. The degree of Bachelor of Laws will be conferred upon students admitted on
the basis of three years (90 semester-hours or the equivalent) of satisfactory credit
from an approved college (not including any credit for law study) upon the satisfactory completion of 90 semester-hours of credit in the School of Law during a
residence period of three academic years or the equivalent. The last year must be
in residence at Northwestern University School of Law, and in the case of students
transferring from another law school, a minimum of thirty semester-hours of credit
must be earned in this University.
ii. By a vote of the Faculty upon petition a special student may become a
candidate for the degree of Bachelor of Laws upon the following conditions:
12

�DEGREES

(a) At the time of beginning his studies in this School the student must have
been at least twenty-three years of age.
(b) The student must have completed at least one academic year of work in
this School before filing his petition for admission as a candidate for a degree.
(c) The student must have attained in the studies pursued in this School an
average standing of 74.
(d) The student must satisfy the Faculty, apart from formal proof of his
general education, that he has had such exceptional education, training, or experience as in its judgment qualifies him to be a candidate for the degree.
When so admitted, the candidate shall be entitled to receive the degree of
Bachelor of Laws on the same conditions required of other candidates for the
degree, except that he must have achieved a minimum grade average of 74.
Where in the opinion of the Faculty the candidate's record of scholarship is one
of distinction or special distinction, the degree of Bachelor of Laws may be awarded
cum laude or magna cum laude.
DEGREE OF MASTER OF LAWS

The degree of Master of Laws will be conferred upon students who have
obtained a first degree in law from this or some other university or college having
equal requirements in that regard. In unusual cases this requirement may be
waived by vote of the Faculty.
A candidate for the degree of Master of Laws will be required to meet the

�COMBINED DEGREES

(c) The completion of such other work, if any, as may be directed by the
Dean in the particular case.
(d) The passing of an examination to be prescribed by the Faculty.
It is the policy of the Faculty to restrict this degree to candidates who have had
experience either in practicing or in teaching law, and who have developed some
scholarly objective. Candidates are afforded every facility for both library and
field research, and at some time during their residence they are given the opportunity of instructing students along the line of their research. They are given the
rank of graduate fellow and are accorded many of the privileges of members of
the Faculty. The opportunities afforded by the School and the community for
graduate study are in all practical respects unlimited.

COMBINED DEGREES
DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF ARTS OR SCIENCE
I. The degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science will be conferred upon students
who have secured credit in the College of Liberal Arts of this University for 135
quarter-hours, in accordance with its requirements (see the University Register for
particulars), upon the further satisfactory completion of 27 semester-hours of the
first-year courses in the School of Law, or upon the completion of such equivalent
courses in the School of Law as may be approved by the faculties of the School
of Law and the College of Liberal Arts.
II. A student presenting three years of college credit (90 semester-hours) from
another approved college of arts and sciences, may, upon the satisfactory completion
of the first year's work in the School of Law, receive from the Faculty a certificate
requesting the faculty of his original college to recognize his work in this School
of Law as the equivalent of a fourth year in college and to recommpnd him for
the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science in that college or university.

DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN LAW

The degree of Bachelor of Science in Law will be conferred upon students who
are admitted to the School of Law on the basis of three years (90 semester-hours)
of college credit, and who are not candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts
or Science, upon the satisfactory completion of the first year's work in the School
of Law with a grade average of not less than 68.
APPLICATION FOR DEGREE

Application for a degree must be made in writing and filed with the Secretary
during the period the candidate is registered in the School. The graduation fee
must be paid at the same time. An application for a degree will not be accepted
after a student's registration has terminated.

14

�EXAMINATIONS
Regular examinations are given in all formal courses. They are for the purpose
of affording a basis for the determination of the student's relative mastery of the
subject upon which he is examined. Although examinations provide the most
· importan t source for this purpose, the written work done in connection with a
course, the preparation of assignments for recitation as reflected in classroom discussion, the contacts generally with the professor in charge incident to the development of a course, are all of great value in rating the standing of a student.
Examinations in individual or seminar studies may or may not be given, depending upon the character of the subject and the nature of the instruction.
No re-examination will be given in any course for the purpose of raising a
grade obtained therein on a prior examination unless the student again regularly
takes the course, or in the case of individual studies, does further work as may
be required.
Students who are eligible, but for good reason are unable to take an examination, may with the permission of the Dean take the next regularly scheduled
examination in the course. No special ~xaminations are given.

GRADES
The grading system is numerical. A grade of 85 or above represents work of
the highest distinction. Grades of 68 and above indicate various degrees of satisfactory work. Credit is given for courses in which the student receives a grade
from 55 through 67, but such 'grades indicate unsatisfactory work. No credit is
given for a course in which a grade of less than 55 is received.
A student who at the end of any term after his first term in School has failed
to maintain an average of 68 to that date is ineligible for further registration in
the School.
A student who fails to attain an average grade of 68 over his entire course is
ineligible for a degree.
In studies and courses in which no formal examination is given, only grades of
P or F will be recorded, except that work done in seminars in which written papers
are required may be given a numerical grade.
Grades received at other schools are not considered in determining the average
grade.

CURRICULUM*
1954-55
TIME

By attending in the summer terms a student may complete his entire course
in less than twenty-nine months from the date of entrance. This program requires
attendance for forty-one weeks in the year. If a student elects not to attend the
summer term, he may complete the course in three years.
INSTRUCTION

The work of the first year is designed to give the student an understanding of
the basic legal principles and concepts. In the second and third years, courses
dealing with related subject matters are scheduled in the same term where experience indicates that this is of advantage to the student. In the third year the
•in the description of courses, the figure in parentheses following the designation of each
course represen ts credit-hours.

�CURRICULUM

student is offered a choice among a number of courses and seminars. Although
the School in the work leading to the first degree in law does not attempt to train
specialists, it is possible in the third year for a student to devote a part of his time
to a specialized field.
'
In the basic courses of the first year case analysis predominates, but there is
also opportunity for lectures and library work as well as for exercises in written
and oral expression under close supervision of faculty and staff members. In the
second and third years, case analysis diminishes while problem study, seminars,
research, writing, discussion and lectures increase.
It is recognized that problems of law, especially those dealt with in the more
advanced courses, are closely related to problems of business and government.
Consequently, in order to provide adequate training for the practice of law, materials from other disciplines are integrated with legal studies and extensive use
is made of lecturers drawn not only from the profession but from the business
community and government.
LIMITATION OF WORK

Courses totaling 15 credit-hours in each semester, in the opinion of the Faculty,
represent the maximum amount of work which a good student can do effectively
under favorable conditions, and no student will be permitted to register for additional courses. A student who is under any serious handicap, such as physical
disability, the necessity of earning part of his expenses, or commuting for long
distances, should reduce his program. A student may be limited in his registration if in the opinion of the Dean he cannot undertake a full schedule with a
prospect of success.

�FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS

that a tmt10n bill is not received within three days from the date of registration,
the student should make application immediately at the Division of Student
Finance. The due dates of bills cannot be extended because students fail to receive
their bills.

Financial Obligations. No student who is delinquent in the payment of tmuon
or other fees, or against whom the University holds record of indebtedness, will be
given a diploma of graduation, a certificate of scholastic standing, or a transcript
of record, until such indebtedness has been fully paid. A student who owes tuition
or other fees at the close of a term will not be permitted to take his final examinations or to receive credit for that term. Registration in the University is provisional
and subject to cancellation by the Director of Student Finance at any time until
bills are paid.
Withdrawals and Refunds. Official withdrawal blanks are available at the office
of the School of Law. Students who withdraw before the end of the first one-eighth
of the term are held for no tuition beyond the amount of the advance deposit.
Students who withdraw after the first one-eighth of the term and before the end
of one-fourth of the term are held for one-fourth of the tuition for the term.
Students who withdraw after the first one-fourth of the term and before the middle
of the term are held for one-half of the tuition for the term. Students who withdraw after the middle of the term are held for full tuition. Regardless of the
time of withdrawal, students are held for all fees, except . that those who withdraw

health fee . In the case of exclusion for nonpayment of tuition, the same charges
are made in accordance with the above dates. In all cases the date on which the
official withdrawal notice is received at the Student Finance Office, or the date
of formal exclusion, is used in figuring any adjustment on tuition.

�LIBRARY AND PICTURES
General Expenses. The expenses of a student for the academic year, including

THE ELBERT H. GARY LIBRARY
The Elbert H . Gary Library of some 162,000 volumes represents chiefly the gifts
of the late Elbert H . Gary, LL.B., 1867, LL.D ., 1922. It ranks among the six largest
law school libraries in the United States and includes substantially all the reported
decisions of the courts of the United States, its separate states and territories, Great
Britain, Canada, and Australia, tog·ether with their statutes and session laws, and all
subsidiary publications-digests, encyclopedias, annotated cases, textbooks, periodicals, bibliographies-necessary to form a complete working collection of Anglo-American law. This collection is supplemented by a selection of publications in the fields
of history, economics, government, and the other social sciences. The Library receives every current legal periodical of general interest printed in the English
language.
In addition, there is a very representative collection of volumes on comparative
law, which includes the codes, decisions, and journals of all modern European
countries, adequate resources for research in Roman and mediaeval law, and a
good working collection of volumes on Japanese and Chinese law. The Theodore
S. Chapman and Robert 0. Farrell collections of Mexican law supplement a useful
group of some five thousand v9lumes on Latin-American law. A large collection
of treatises and periodicals on international law is supplemented by many treaties
and diplomatic documents, and the whole pennits useful work to be carried on in
the field of public international law. The Library maintains a comprehensive collection of volumes and documents on the criminal law and its administration and
a special collection of materials on aeronautics, including aviation law, commerce,
and other works in the field, exclusive of technical engineering publications.
In connection with the University Centennial Celebration, the Northwestern
Law Alumni Association recently raised a fund of more than $150,000 for the purchase of books for the Library. This is called the John Henry Wigmore Library
Fund, in honor of the memory of the Dean of the School of Law from 1901 to
1929, whose great learning and scholarly interest contributed in such a vital way
to the building of the collection.
The Library is open daily throughout the year, and in the evenings as well
whenever the School is in session.

PICTURES
The School's collection of pictures, now numbering some 2,500 pieces, copiously
illustrates the history, personnel, and customs of the legal profession, not only in
Great Britain and the United States, but all over the world. It represents acquisitions accumulated during the past thirty years, partly by purchase, partly by gifts
from alumni and other friends. Personal search has been made in nearly every
country of Europe for portraits and scenes to illustrate other systems of law; many
of these are unique and irreplaceable.
The collection includes some forty oil paintings, and about 1,500 etchings and
engravings. A special series is a se_t of twenty large platinum photographs of portraits of eminent British judges in the National Gallery of Portraits, colored by a
London artist to show the costumes. The larger portraits are framed for display on
the walls of the lecture rooms, library reading room and corridors.

�FOUNDATIONS AND SPECIAL FUNDS
THE JAMES NELSON AND ANNA LOUISE RAYMOND FOUNDATION

The James Nelson and Anna Louise Raymond Foundation was established in
1926 by the late Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond through a gift of $200,000. The income from this fund, which was originally subject to certain annuities, provides a
legal clinic for the poor. It was organized under the superintendence of a joint commit tee of the School of Law, U nited Charities, and the Chicago Bar Association .
The work of the clinic is under the direction of attorneys of the School of Law and
the staff of the Legal Aid Bureau of the United Charities. The work of the School
and that of the Legal Aid Bureau are highly co-ordinated. Indigent claimants and
defendants in every type of case are represented. The student comes in intimate
contact with the routine and problems of office practice and litigation generally.
The claims successfully prosecuted aggregate thousands of dollars annually, and the
legitimate defenses afforded indigent persons are equally valuable. The Foundation and clinics were the first to be set up on behalf of a law school.
For details of the clinic work required, see the Curriculum.
In connection with the work of the legal clinics, Mrs. Anna Louise Raymond
established the James Nelson Raymond Fellowship, by gifts totaling $40,000, the

The Legal Publications Board is the Student Editorial Department of the several publications fostered by the Law School. The notes and comments published
in the journals are for the most part written by students. Selection of the student
members of the Board is based upon scholastic standing and competitive writing.
Membership on the Board is the highest honor a student can attain in the School
of Law, and of itself constitutes a preferred rating for the purpose of obtaining
employment after graduation.
The Board which took office in June, 1953, included the following members:
Robert A. Southern

JUNIOR BAR ASSOCIATION
The Junior Bar Association is the students' professional orga nization, operating
under charter granted by the Faculty of the School. All students are members of
the Association, and through it work out the problems of student government
and school activities. Through its power to call general assemblies of the students and require their attendance, the Association provides a ready forum for
the discussion and consideration of all the affairs of the School in which students
are interested, as well as for public and professional matters outside the School.
The Junior Bar Association also publishes semi-annually The Reporter, a magazine for distribution to students and alumni, and The U' igmore, an annual yearbook.
An orientation program for entering students is held by the Junior Bar Association at the beginning of the fall semester. On the day before classes begin, welcoming talks are given by the Dean and the President of the Junior Bar Associa3.'i

�STUDENT HEALTH SERVICE
tion. Instructors for the first-year classes and representatives of the various

The officers for 1953-54 were:
President: Albert L. Hall, Jr.
Secretary : Kathryn Dix
Vice-President: Harry R . Halper
Treasurer: Ford R. Paulson
THE WIGMORE YEARBOOK

STUDENT HEALTH SERVICE
The Student Health Service, provided by the University through the Medical
School for law students, is the same as that provided for students of the Medical
and Dental Schools.
Students wishing a consultation for illness may see the Student Health physician
in Room 202 of the Medical School (Montgomery Ward Building) from 8:30 to
10:3·0 A.M . and 1:30 to 3:30 P .M . daily, and at 11:00 A.M. on Saturday. In an emergency case a student may report to the nurse in charge, Room 202, any time between 8:30 A.M. and 4:30 P.M. Acute illness occurring outside of those hours should
be reported to the Emergency Room at Passavant Memorial Hospital.
Validity of registration is contingent upon completion of the initial physical
examination and satisfactory evidence of successful vaccination. Appointments for
physical examination will be given at the beginning of each school term. Students
who register late or who fail to keep their appointments for physical examination
will be charged a fee of two dollars.
In order to use the facilities of the Health Service, students must be registered
at the University for at least the minimum number of hours required for eligibility.
See the Student Health Service Information Bulletin for more complete information.

ABBOTT HALL
All law students except married students and those whose homes are within
easy commuting d istance of the School are expected to live in Abbott H all. It is
designed to provide convenient and attractive living quarters and to provide an
atmosphere in which may be developed all those qualities of personality which
are so essential to a lawyer, but which for the most part fan outside the sphere
of formal training.
36

�ABBOTT HALL

The building, eighteen stories high, overlooks Lake Michigan on Lake Shore
Drive from Huron to Superior Street. It is constructed of Indiana limestone and
conforms in architectural style to the classroom buildings on the campus. The
first two floors and the basement are given over to common rooms for social and
recreational purposes, the upper sixteen to private accommodations. The first floor
contains general waiting rooms and offices and a series of shops. On the second
floor is a large student lounge; also a fountain-grill, and two large dining rooms
which offer cafeteria service. In addition there is a lounge and common living
room on each of the upper floors. Athletic facilities for bowling and ping-pong,
in addition to a well-equipped exercise room, are available in the basement.
Three floors are reserved for the students of the School of Law-the 10th and
Ilth floors for men; the 18th floor for women. Double study-bedrooms, some of
them with private baths, are available. Rooms are equipped with desks of modern
design, dressers, and beds with inner-spring mattresses. All rooms are provided
with chairs, rugs, draperies, bookcases, and floor lamps. Each room has a double
closet. (Tru nks are stored in the baggage room in the basement.) Bed linens,
blankets, and towels are included in the furnishings, and daily maid service is given.
The cost of room and board in Abbott Hall is reasonable, and is below the
rates charged for other desirable accommodations in the same part of the city.
The location of rooms is indicated by the following floor plan:

The attractive residents' Dining Hall on the second floor serves excellent food
and is operated on a daily cash basis. A large selection of foods is _o ffered at
moderate prices, three meals per day averaging from $2.00 to $3.00.
The average room rate for the academic year is $290.00 for each occupant.
Before a room is occupied, a contract for the academic year is signed by the applicant.
The Division of Student Finance issues and makes all adjustments on the
residence bills for Abbott Hall. Rental bills are issued for payments on October 1,
January 1, and April I, during the academic year. Bills are due upon presentation
and are p ayable at the Cashier's Office in Abbott Hall.
Applications, together with $25 .00 room deposit, should be filed as early as
possible. For room applications, address the Manager, Abbott Hall, 710 North
Lake Shore Drive, Chicago 11.

UNIVERSITY BOOKSTORE
The University Bookstore is owned and operated by the University for the convenience of the students in all schools on the Chicago Campus. It is located on the
first floor in Abbott Hall. The student may obtain all necessary textbooks and
supplies there. He will also find that the various departments have articles which
are carefully selected to meet the student's every need.

37

�VETERANS' EDUCATION
The University maintains a Veterans' Education Office in Abbott Hall, for the
assistance of students who attend school under any of the Servicemen's Readjustment
Acts. All business with the Veterans' Administration is handled through that
office.

MIMEOGRAPH SERVICE
In many courses it is necessary to supply mimeographed materials. At the begin·
ning of each term a charge is made against each student for the mimeographed
materials required in his courses on the basis of the cost of the supplies and labor
required in their preparation. No charge is made for the time of the instructor and
his secretarial assistants spent in research, editing, and cutting the stencils for the
materials. The mimeograph service is under the management of. Mr. Shyam Majhi.

EMPLOYMENT
The University Placement Bureau is available to students who wish to obtain
part-time employment. Applications should be made to University Placement Bureau, Wieboldt _Hall, 337 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago 11, Illinois.
