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
6

�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. 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 ded icated. Its magnificent bui ldings for the
Medical and Dental Schools, the School of Law, 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 75,000
living alumni. Its thirteen schools are located on two campuses, with land and
buildings valued at $34,000,000. The full-time enrollment of the University is
about 8,500 students; of this number approximately 6,900 are enrolled on the Evanston Campus. The faculty consists of approximately 1,050 members. The bound
volumes in the libraries of the University total approximately 1,050,000. 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

T

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.
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 approx imately 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

7

�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 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 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 fellow ships 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.

�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 Facu lty that, except under special circumstances, on ly re latively mature
students should enter before securing an academic degree.
The preparation for the study of law is an individua l problem. Ordinarily a
student would do well to follow a Bachelor of Arts or Science program with
emphasis on English, history, econom ics, and political science. In addition, time
shou ld 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 shou ld consult with their co llege pre legal advisers.

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 University Register for
particulars), upon the further satisfactory completion oE 27 semester-hours oE the

courses in the School of Law as may be approved by the faculties of the School
of Law and the College of Liberal Arts.

another approved
college oE arts and sciences, may, upon the satisfactory completion
of the first year's work in the School oE 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 i n co llege and to r ecommend him for
the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science in that co ll ege or university.

DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN LAW
The degree of Bachelor of Scie nce in Law wi ll be conferred upon s-r.udent:s 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.

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 ma ste ry oE 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 instruct ion.
No 1·e-examination will be given in any course for the purpose of ra1s111g a
grade obtained therein on a prior examination unless the student again regularl y

12

�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 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*
1952-1953
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
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.
*In the description of courses, the figure in parentheses following the designation of each
course represents credit•hours.

13

�Consequently, in order to provide adequate trammg 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.

floor, Abbott Hall. Each student is responsible for' receiving his bi ll. In the event
I hat a tuition bill is not received within three days from the date of registration,
I he student should make application i_mmediately at the Division of Student
Finance. The clu e dates of bilJs cannot b e extended because students fail to recei,·e
their bills.

�Financial Obligations. No student who is delinquent in the payment of tu1t10n
or other fees, or against whom the U niversity holds record of indebtedness, will be
given a diploma of graduation, a certificate of scholastic standing, or a transcript
of record, until such indebtedness h as been full y p aid . 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. R egistration in the U niversity is provisional
and subject to cancellation by the Director of Student Finance at a ny time until
bills a re paid.

of the term are h eld for a ll fees plus one-fourth the tuition charges. Students wh o
withdraw after the first one-fourth of the term and b efore the middle of the term
are h eld for all fees plus o ne-h alf of the tuition cha rges. Stud ents who withdraw
after th e middle of the term are held for all fees and tui tion charges. In the case
of excl usion for nonpayment of tuition, the same charges a re made in accordance
with the above dates. In all cases the date o n which the official withdrawal notice
is received at the Student Finance Office, or the date of formal ex clusion, is used
in figuring an y adjustments on tuition.
Students Entering Military Service. If a student in good standing withdraws
from the U nivers ity after the middle of a quarter or a semester, because h e h as

fac ulty and staff members listed on the regular twelve-month payroll of the Un iversity; (b) dependent sons and daughters of such persons; (c) full-time employees
of affili ated institutions.
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 cen t of the established full -tim e tuition rate. This rebate limitation recognizes that the full-time

Appli cation blanks for these rebates are ava ilable at the Student Finance Office,
Abbott Hall, and must be filed with that office before registration each tenn.

�General Exj;enses. The expenses of a student for the academic year, including
tuition, books, board and room, and incidentals, approximate $1,700.

THE ELBERT H. GARY LIBRARY

The Elbert H. Gary Library of some 154,000 vol umes 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 substantiall y all the reported
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 Jaw, 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 volum es 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 permits useful work to be carried on in
the field of public international Jaw. The Library maintains a comprehensive collection of volumes and documents on the criminal law and its adm inistration 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 gift
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.

JUNIOR BAR ASSOCIATION
The Junior Bar Association is the students' professional organization, operating
under charter granted by the Faculty of the School. All students are members of

32

�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 interes ted,
as well as for public and professional matters outside the School.
The officers for 1951-52 were:
Secretary: Herbert I. Rothbart
President: John E. Coons
Treasurer: W. Wyeth Willard

STUDENT HEAL TH SERVICE

The Student Health Service, provided by the University through the Med ical
School for law students, is the same as that provided for students of the Medical
and De.n tal Schools.
Students wishing a consultation for illness may see the Student Health physician
in Room 219 of the Medical School (Montgomery Ward Building) from 8:30 to
10:30 A.M . and 1:00 to 3:00 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 219, 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 _a ppointments 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 Rulletin for more complete information.

ABBOTT HALL

All law students except ma_rried students and those whose homes are within
easy commuting distance of the School are expected to Jive 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
are several commodious and attractive lounges, 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, squash, and
33

�ping-pong, in addition to a well-equipped exercise room, are available in the basement. A parking lot for the use of occupants is adjacent.
Three floors are reserved for the students of the School of Law-the 10th and
11th floors for men; the I 8th floor for women. Double study-bedrooms, some of
them with private baths, are avai lable. Rooms are equ ipped with desks of modern
design, dressers, and beds with inner-spring mattresses. All rooms are provided with
chairs, rug·s, draperies, bookcases, and study lamps. Each room has a commodious
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.
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 offered at mod erate prices, three meals per day averaging from $ 2.00 to $2.50.
The . average room rate for the academic year is $290.00 for each occupant. Befor 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 resi dence bills for Abbott Hall. Rental bills are issued for equal payments on October
l, January 1, 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 $25.00 room deposit, should be filed as early as
possible. For room applications, address the Manager, Abbott Hall, 710 North
Lake Shore Drive, Ch icago 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.

MIMEOGRAPH SERVICE

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

34

�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. Application should be made to University Placement Bureau, Wieboldt Hall, 337 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago 11, Illinois.

�"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 fully in effect.

�". . . 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
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 con tinuous 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.
10

�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
informal 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 aircondi tioned.
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

�Portraits of former faculty members look down on lawyers of

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
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 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 collection
and also provides in part for the current purchase of books. The Owen
L. Coon Library, built in 1960, is named in recognition of a substantial
gift from the Owen L. Coon Foundation. In 1966 a new endowment
fund from the estate of Norris E. Crull (class of 1909) was made available to the library to establish the Norris E. Crull Collection. The constantly growing collection of over 250,000 volumes is among the largest
law school libraries in the Western World.
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 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
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 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
15

�outstanding collections of medieval law, jurisprudence, legal history,
comparative law, and valuable resources in Roman law. Especially notable is the ·w illiams 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. With
special funds, provided by Mr. Barnet Hodes (class of 1921), the Barnet
Hodes Collection on Local Government ·was established. Mr. Paul Cutler
(class of 1931) provided funds for special collections of books for the
Paul Cutler Browsing Alcove, in fields such as biography, history, political science, and literature.
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 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 gen eral 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
conducted under student auspices and control, including the officers of
the Junior Bar Association and the staff of the Law R eview, 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.
17

�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. All law students residing in Abbott Hall belong to the
Law Residence Association. The purpose of this organization is to bring
together the law students living in Abbott Hall, to provide social activities, and to improve the living conditions generally for those students.
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 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, 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
18

�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 the city. The plan of a typical residential floor in Abbott
Hall is shown below.

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 $390 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 I 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 completely furnished
apartments for married students. Apartment rentals average $130 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.
19

�Students are enrolled with the Service at the time of registration,

THE
COURSE
OF
INSTRUCTION
The purpose of the Law School is to prepare its graclua tes for effective service in all fields of law-to qu alify men and women not only for
the private practice of the profession but for careers in government
service, in the fie lds of commerce and finance, a nd in legal education as
well. The curriculum does not concentrate upon imparting knowledge
of the legal rules applicable in an y one jurisdiction or region. R ath er,
it concentrates upon the development of the fundamental capacities and
skills of the lawyer.
Human activity is infinitely varied and ever changing. Law, bringing
orde r 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, uniqu e. Effective professional edu cation must therefore prepare the student to deal with situ ation s n ever
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. Jt
requires, of course, diligence and effort for a ma stery of the formal materials of the course. Beyond this fo undation the instruction d emands
thought and initia tive of the individual student to extend his learning
21

�appraisal of the student's qualifications for law study and monetary
needs. For students of exceptional ability who h ave 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 m ay 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. Information on when to apply for admission appears on page 72.
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 m ee t 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 m an "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
79

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
relatively 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

�cisions 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.
With 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 origina ted 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 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 approxima tes 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 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 m
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 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 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 traditional disciplinary boundaries and include materials and participants
from such fields as economics, sociology, psychiatry, and political science.
27

�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 clone in the seminars. Some of the papers are
printed in the professional journals published by the Law School, and
research clone 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
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 tech28

�niques, 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. 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, and now is fully in effect. During his
first year of law study the student follows a prescribed course designed
to provide an understanding of basic legal principies 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 by the student
wishing it. Moreover, seminars often provide opportunities for further
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
29

�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 courses in the first year curriculum
Four hours of seminar work requiring substantial individual research
and writing.
The courses in
Legal Profession
Legal Clinic (not required of members of the Law Review or the
Journal of Criminal Law)
International Law
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 taken previously or concurrently.

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
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 and Introduction to
Litigation are limited in enrollm ent. The School cannot assure that all
students wishing to enroll in a p articular seminar, 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 attendance 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
instructor 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. Although examinations provide the most important source for determining
the student's relative achievement, consideration may also be given to
45

�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 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
In I 907 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

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 (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 page 30. The work

first degrees in law are described in the information concerning Graduate Study on pages 57-58.
49

�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 adj u ncts to the regular courses and emphasize the
broader public obligations of the profession. In r ecognition 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
subj ects of major public importance. Through participation in these programs,
the student broadens his vision and develops the sense of public responsibil ity
which ch aracterizes the highest traditions of the bar.
Many of these curricular supplements are presented by the Law School as
an integral part of the general education al program upon an occasional basis
and without special spon sorship. Others are offered as part of established and
continuing programs within the School. The most notable of these continuing
programs are described below.

THE LINTHICUM FOUNDAT ION PROGRAM
The Charles Clarence Linthicum Foundation was established in 1926 in
memory of Professor Linthicum, an alumnus of the class of 1882, a member
of the Law School Faculty from 1902 to 191 5, and one of the most eminent
pa tent 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 b ee n awarded from these fun&lt;ls for
meritorious books and essays in these fields to distinguished American and
European authors. In r ecent years, the Foundation has sponsored a number
of significant conferences.
ln 1948, a round table was held under the Linthicum Foundation on the
subject "Is Bigness an Offense under the Sherman Act?" Participants were
Edward R . Johnston, of the Chicago Bar; Eugene V. Rostow, Dean and Professor of L aw, Yale University; Thomas C. McConnell and Leo F. Tierney
of the Chicago Bar; James A. R ahl '42, of the faculty, and students from the
class in Trade Rel ations.
In 1949, a round table was h eld on the subj ect "'Feather-Bedding'-Symptom or Disease." Principal speakers were Carroll R. Daugherty, Professor of
Business Economics, Northwestern University, and Paul R. Hays, Judge of the
United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and formerly Professor
of Law, Columbia University. Participants were Stanford Clinton and Alex
Elson, of the Chicago Bar; W . Willard Wirtz, the present Secretary of Labor
and formerly of the faculty; and students from the class in Labor Relations.
In 1951, the Foundation contributed to th e support of an Academic Conference on "Individual, Group and Government in the Modern Economy,"
this being the sixth of a seri es of confer en ces h eld by the University in celebra tion of its centennial.
In 195 1, a con fer en ce was h eld on the subj ect of "Arbitration and W age
Stabiliza tion. "

Indus trial Community. "
53

�In the fall of 1959, the Foundation was co-sponsor of a conference on "Freedom in the Modern American Economy," presented as a part of the Law
School's centennial observance. The speakers included Arthur J. Goldberg '30,
presently United States Ambassador to the United Nations.
In 1960, as part of the observance of the Law School's centennial, a conference was held on the subject "Individual Freedom and Public Debate." Among
the speakers was Adlai E. Stevenson '26.
In l 961, a conference was held on "Freedom and R esponsibility in Broadcastin g." Among the participants were Newton N. Minow '50, formerl y Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, and Roscoe E. Barrow '38,
formerly Dean of the University of Cincinnati College of Law.
In 196 1, a conference was held on "The Illinois Profess ional Association
Law. " Among the participants was Crane C. Hauser, a mem ber of the Chicago

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 amo ng corporate counsel.
R ecent a ttendance at the annual Institute mee tin g h as approached fiv e hundred practitioners in the corporate field. Each Institute meeting includ es addresses by distinguished private practition ers, government officials, and scholars
in such fields as a ntitrust, labor r elations, securities registra tion , and taxation.
Students are welcome to attend Institute sessions. The proceedings of the Institute are published annually, and ma ny individual papers are published in the
Northwestern Universit y Law R eview and in other leadin g scholarly journals.

�THE CRIMIN AL LAW PROGRAM
The Law School's Criminal Law Program offers unusu al breadth and depth
not only for graduate students but also for candidates for the first degree in
law. With the assistance of three grants from the Ford Foundation, the Law
School's programs in th e field of criminal law have developed as follows:
In 1958, the Ford Foundation awarded $3 00,000 to the L aw School for the
es tablishm ent of a graduate program in criminal law. Graduate fellowships to
train practitioners and teachers in this area were awarded for the n ex t five years.
In 196 4, the Ford Foundation awarded $300,000
to the Law School to establish a Police Legal Advisor Program. This five year graduate program is
designed to train young lawyers as "house counsel" to metropolitan police departments and a number of fellowships have bee n awarded from 1964 through
1967. Graduates of this program now hold high ranking poli ce administrative
and training positions in various cities of the United States, and the police
legal advisor system was approved and recommended for every poli ce d epa rtme nt by the 1967 Report of th e President's Comm ission on Law Enforcement
a nd the Administration of Justice. This program also funds a number of conferences of police legal advisors, prosecutors, a nd police administrators throughout th e life of the grant. In 1966, a conference on "The Supreme Court a nd
the Police" was h eld at th e Law School.
In 1967, the Ford Foundation award ed .$600,000 to the Law School to establish a n expa nd ed gradu ate and undergrad uate program in criminal law. Th is
program will offer fellowships to young lawyers who plan careers as prosecutors
or defe ns e counsel in criminal cases. In addition , a number of summer cl erkships, supported by a fe llowship of $ 1,200, are avai lable to Northwestern law
stud ents, primarily juniors, to provid e experi e nce working in the areas of police,
prosecution, public a nd private defense, courts and corrections. These fellowsh ips are awarded in the spring of each year to students who plan to take
advanced courses and semi nars in criminal law during th eir senior year. This
n ewest grant will also fund a Distin guished Lecture series in the area of criminal a nd constitutional law a nd procedure.
More informatio n on graduate fellowships in Criminal Law appea rs on
pages 86 and 87.

THE PROGRAM OF INTERNATIONAL LEGAL STUDIES
The Ford Foundation awarded $200,000 to the Law School for the expansion
of its program in Intern a tion al Legal Studies in 1957. The School's early
interest in the field is manifested by its substantial and seasoned library collections in foreign and international law a nd by its long-standing requirement
that each student pursue some international studies. In furtherance of its program the School has offered seminars in International Busin ess 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 facu lty and for visiting
foreign professors, and they support graduate fellowships for foreign lawyers
55

�and students. Other portions of the funds are devoted to work-seminars and
conferences in the field of international law.
More information on graduate fellowships in International Legal Studies
appears on page 86.

THE PROGRAM IN LAW AND THE SOCIAL SCIENCES
The Russell Sage Foundation awarded approximately $2 10,000 in 1963 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.
In 1966, the grant was ren ewed 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 improvemen t 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 Gradu ate School of the University and in
the School of Law (see page 79) . The Saga 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 exp ect to be involved in special r esearch
activity and in the editing of the Law and Society R eview, which has a student
board of editors and co ntributors.

"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.
Students discuss a question of Common Market law with Mr. Justice Andre Donner of the
Court of Justice of the European Communities following his Rosenthal Lecture.

�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
discipline 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
subj ect "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 10 semesterhours in courses or seminars not previously counted toward the first
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 grad57

�uate student to take course and semmar work in addition to the mmimum 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 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 Juri dical 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:
1. 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.

A third yea r student leads the discussion in the semina r en Law
and th e Industrial Society

58

�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.

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 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 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. Approximately 125 colleges and universities are represented
by graduates enrolled in the Law School (see pp. 93-94) . 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 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 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
64

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

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 Police Science. This Journal with a world-wide circulation
is the foremost publication of its kind. It has been in continuous pub65

�lication since 1910. Professor Fred E. Inbau is its editor-in-chief and
managing director. The assistant editor-in-chief is Professor James R.
Thompson. 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 studen t 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
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 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, Tom
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.

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
66

�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 h eld
67

�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 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.

RESEARCH ASSIST ANT SHIPS
Each year a number of second and third year students are sdected
to serve as Research Assistants to individual members of the Faculty.
These appointments carry a modest stipend but are valued primarily for
the opportunities they afford for close participation in the ongoing
scholarly work and publications of the Faculty.

VOLUNTARY LEGAL SERVICES
The School's Legal Clinic program, a part of the curriculum since
1910, has long provided opportunities for students to secure practical
experience while rendering a service to those unable to pay for legal
counsel. Recent developments in the law requiring expanded representation for indigent criminal defendants and the recent proliferation of
voluntary and governmental agencies providing legal services on the
civil side to members of disadvantaged groups have greatly increased the
number of opportunities open to students to give voluntary service from
which both satisfaction and valuable experience can be gained. The
School's location, in the heart of a major urban center, is a particularly
fortunate one for this purpose. A high proportion of the students in the
68

�second and third year take p art in one or more of these voluntary programs.
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. A parallel
program under the same sponsorship provides experience in law offices
on civil matters.
The School's chapter of the Law Students' Civil Rights Research
Council provides research and other assistance to practitioners concerned
with civil rights questions.
A number of students serve as assistants to practitioners, themselves
volunteers, in rendering legal services through neighborhood houses and
other social agencies in various parts of the city.

RECREATION AND SOCIAL ACTIVITIES
The law student soon learns the truth of the old saying tha t " 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
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.
69

�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.

At a Moot Court argument in the Getz Court Room student advocates confer in urgent whispers
on how to meet the point made to the court by their opponent.

�"Mr. Hoyne says that he has confidence
that the School will commence with 50
students. The tuition 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 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
faci lities 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 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 capable 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 qualities of character requisite to
the profession. The School endeavors to admit only those applicants
71

�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 h ave 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 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 b y 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.
During the normal college vacation periods, the number of pros72

�pective 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 application is advisable. 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 78.
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 l 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.
73

�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 permanently 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
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
74

�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 stu-dent 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

PAYMENT OF TUITION AND FEES
Tuition and fees ar e p aid by semesters, rather than by the fu ll 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 th e first floor of Abbott
Hall, receives these p ayments.
The Division of Student Finance, on the first floor of Abbott Hall, issues
the statements 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
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 th e term are h eld 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. In the case of exclusion for nonpayment of
tu ition, 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 Law School or the date
of forma l exclusion is us ed in figurin g an y adjustment on tuition.

REBATES TO FACULTY, STAFF, AND INSTRUCTORS
Undergraduate and graduate students in the following categories are eligible
to apply for certain tuition rebates of up to 50 p er cent : (a) full-time faculty
1 ln many courses it is necessary to supply mimeographed materials to supplement ass igned casebooks. This fl at charge covers the cost of supplies and labor to prepare such supplementary material. In a few courses mim eographed materials are p repared by the instructor to replace completely
an assigned casebook. In those instances where the volume of material is su bstantial an add itional
charge (less than the cost of the usual casebook) is m ade. In neither situation is there any charge
made for the time of the instructor and his secretarial assistants spent in research, ed iting, and
cutting the stencils for the mater ia]s.

77

�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.
Information concerning these rebates and application blanks are available
at the Student Finance Office, Abbott H all. Applications 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 b ecome due. Rebate
checks are applicable on tuition charges only and cannot be accepted in paymen t 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 payable to themselves against their deposits. There is no charge for this
service, a nd 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
78

�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 Dev\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 72.
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

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

GRADUATE STUDY: ADMISSION AND
FELLOWSHIPS
ADMISSION TO GRADUATE STUDY AND TO CANDIDACY
FOR ADVAN 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 Gradu ate 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
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.
The School's graduate degrees are described fully on pages 57-58.
Application forms and additional information may be secured by writing
to th e Committee on Graduate Admissions, 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 75-77 of the bulletin.
The expenses of an unmarried student for the academic year, includ85

�ing 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.

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 Wigmore 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 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.
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.

appears on page 55.

CRIMIN AL LAW FELLOWSHIPS

1. Police Legal Advisor Program
Through the generosity of the Ford Foundation several fellowships
are available each year for recent Law School graduates with an interest
86

�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 adviser to a police department. At the end of that period, participants in the Program are eligible for the Master of Laws degree.
The fellowships range in amounts up to $7,000 each year, and are
considered tax exempt.
Fellowship recipients may begin their studies either in the first
semester (September) of each school year or in the second semester
(February).
2. Prosecution and Defense Program
Fellowships are also available for recent law school graduates with
interest in careers as prosecutors or defense counsel in criminal cases.
As in the Police Legal Advisor Program, the period of training is two
years-the first year is spent in residence at the Law School (with part
time service in the local prosecutor or defense office), and in the second
year the student serves full time in a prosecutor or defense office. At the
end of the two-year period, participants in the Program are eligible for
the Master of Laws degree.
Fellowships for this Program are awarded in amounts up to $7,000 a
year and are considered tax exempt. Students may begin studies in either
the first or second semester.
More information on the Criminal Law Program appears on page 55.
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.

"Old Northwestern!
That's where we learned our law."

-"The Counsellor's Chorus,"
John H enry Wigmore, Dean 1901-29

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 William C. Chamberlin.
Through general announcements to the profession and particular
inquiries, the Placement Service gathers information on professional
88

�opportumt1es and openings. The Placement Service compiles a complete listing of these opportunities, 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, diplomats, mayors,
attorney-generals, prosecutors, and 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
89

�Alumni 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
90

�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 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 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.

the highest standards of academic and professional excellence. This
dedication marks the ch aracter of the Law School today.
Professional training of the high est order and the d evelopment of
each student's unique capabilities are fostered by a close working relationship between student and teacher. Early in its history, the L aw School
adopted a policy of limited enrollme nt to promote educational quality.
Today Northwestern remains a law school of m edium size, small in
comparison with others of n ational sta nding. The result is that each
student is the beneficiary of a significan t share of the resources of the
School.
In further an ce of its objectives of excell en ce, the Law School maintains a policy of selective admission to assure that each student is capable,
first of benefiting from ch allenging instruction and, second of pursuing
intell ectual goals with self-disciplin e and initia tive. Those chosen are
students of independent and seeking mind, who need not be led but
who, on the contrary, can contribute to th e education of their fellows
in cooperative endeavor. For effective teaching of students of the highest
calibre, instruction is conducted in small groups b y 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 co nfined to the
classroom. The Law School, with its comprehensive library arranged
for effecti ve scholarship a nd its ample provision for inform al conference
IO

�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-look ing movements in legal education, the Law School
today offers a curriculum arranged to foster an understanding of the
formative principles th at 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 integrated
with every phase of the nation's economic, social, and politi cal 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.

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

-Sir William Searle Holdsworth,

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 m a terial 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 profession al 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 fash ionable residential apartments
separated from the lake by a continuous series of parks, beaches, golf
12

�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 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.

PROFESSION AL 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 1,5 00 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 of the first year and for most
courses during the second year. As a consequence, the number of
students attending a class seldom exceeds 65 and is typically 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 Iorthwestern.
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 amph itheatre style, faci li tati ng 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. With a capacity
equal to the entire student body, it is used principally for major extracurricular 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 eight to 14, 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 g iving
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 ca reer. Installed in a concealed portion of the room
are the Wigmore chimes, a unique musical machine that plays at noon
"The Counsellor's Chorus," the Law School so ng composed by Dean
Wigmore himself. MacChesney Hall, in the newer building, is hand-

�somely 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 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
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. The
working spaces have a seating capacity nearly equal to the total enrollment 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 15 or the 15 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 m aintained for faculty use.
The course of instruction has been designed to en courage 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 a ncient reports to the la test 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
adva nced 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 U nited 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, pp eriodicals, bibliograFhies-necessary to form a
complete working collection for ever y legal system in the English lan-

�guage. T hi s Anglo-American coll ec tion is sup plemented by a selection
of works in the fields of history, eco nomics, government, and the other
social and behavioral scien ces. The library also receives every current
legal periodica l of general interest printed in the English language.
More tha n one-third of the total collection is m ad e up of works in the
fields of foreign and international law. T h e comprehensive materi als
in foreign law includes the cod es, trea tises, decisions, a nd journals of all
major Europea n countries and J apan, and good working collections in
L a tin-America n law. Furthering its forward-looking policies, the library
began a t a n early d ate to build a complete collection in the Jaw of nations, goi ng beyond the domestic laws of the separate countries to emphasize the rules of Jaw co ntrolling their relations with each other. The
la rge collection of trea tises and periodicals in intern a tional law is supplem ented b y m a n y trea ties a nd diplomatic documents, and the whole permi ts original and useful work to b e carried on in th e field of public intern ational law.
Holdings in other specialized fields include a comprehensive collection of trea tises, periodicals, and docume nts in criminal Jaw and its
administra tion , a nd a sp ecial collection of materials in aeron autics, including aviation law, commerce, a nd oth er works in the field excl usive
of technica l engineeri ng publications. In add ition, the library includes
outstanding collections of medieval law, jurisprudence, legal history,
a nd comparative law, a nd valuable reso urces in Roman law.
The L aw School library is independent in administration and organiza tion, but its compreh ensive sources are supplemented in speciali zed
areas through inter-library loans and other cooperative arrangem en ts
w ith the general U niversity library, dep artme ntal libraries, and the major
publi c, edu ca tion al, and legal collections in the region.
A special fea ture of the library is i ts distinguished rare book collection, h oused in the h a ndsome H ardy Scholars Treasure R oom adjoining
the m ain reading room. These a ncient 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, includin g a number of
manuscripts a nd incunabula, that is, books printed before 1500. A
number are unique, or the only copies in the western h emisphere. The
value of these books is not primarily antiquarian, h owever. T hey h ave
been gathered a nd selected because they are indispensable for effective
lega l research in areas that may b e vital both to scholars and practitioners.
Although the reserve facilities of the library h ave been con stru cted
with foresight to accommod ate a n eventua l collection twice the size of
the current holdings, provision has also been made for the use of the
m aterials of legal research of the future. A section of the library is fu lly
fitted with the b asic equipme nt 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 collection 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 avai lable 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 Wigmore, the
Reporter, 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.

�"[Here the] teaching will . . . give men

THE
COU RSE

at the dedication of th e
Law School buildings, October 20, 1902.

OF

INSTRU CTION
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 in itiative of the individual stude nt, to extend hi s 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 resul t 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 su ch as Criminal Law, Property, Contracts, and Torts go back, as separate topics, to the days of Lord
Coke or Blackstone. But life h as changed since those early days in the
law, and even th ese traditional subj ects 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 clay, but for the half
century of lawyer's work that lies ahead. So it is that Labor Relations,
Taxation, Administrative Law, Civi l 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 schoo l today shapes its instructional program to meet the needs of the profession for the years that lie
ahead.

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 edu cation. Ordinarily, beginning students enter the Law
School in September and attend the two semesters of the regular academic year for three years . Optional summer sessions afford flexibility
and the enrichment of additional elective courses. Two principal provisions are made to accommodate students in special circumstances. First,
by attending summer sessions, students may earn their degrees in 28
months. Second, beginning students may enter in February, at the opening of the second term.
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 al l branches of the profession. Here the student encounters the
grand divisions of private law-Property, Tort, and Contract-as well as
Constitutional Law and Crimina l 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 with particular
problems or difficulties.
Some opportunity for elective courses and seminars appears in the
second-year curriculum, and the widest cho ice is afforded in the third
year. The student, however, does not normally "specialize" in the course
of the law school career.
22

�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 companion who expects to go into corporate practi ce with a large city firm
or another who plans to return to a small town for general practice. A
broad base in fund a mentals is necessary in every field, a nd intelligent
choice can be made only from a general famili arity with the available
fi elds. Lawyers quite regularly turn up in posts of responsibility neither
they nor their law school facu lties envisioned. The wide range of electives offered by the Law School permits a modest degree of speciali zation
but, more significantly, a llows the student to follow the bent of h is personal interests and to sample a variety of problems in the law.
In the second and third years, courses are frequentl y arranged so that
the student will exa min e related fields of law a t the same time and be
made aware of their interrelations. An example of this fun ctional grouping of rel a ted courses is afforded by the seminar in Law and the Industrial Society, in which the content of the separate courses in Corporations,
Labor Relations, and Trade Relations is integrated and synthesized.
Problems of law, especiall y 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 U niversity, but from the business community and government as well.
It is in the adva nced courses principally that the student is offered the
opportunity to explore the frontiers of the law and to work in close
coopera tion with the members of the facu lty. Sma ll classes and frequent
individual co nferences 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 facu lty, each
assigned personally to a professor to aid in scho larly activities.

FACULTY
The basic instruction in the Law School program is co nducted by the
full-time resident facu lty, who take teaching as their first responsibility.
Each member is experienced in priva te practice and a number have
served in responsible governme nt posts as well. lVIa n y are call ed upon
for co nsultatio n and advice by government agencies and private groups,
and are active in the organizations a nd affairs of the legal profession .
The ir scho larly activities in cl ude the delivery of lectures and addresses
before legal and p ubli c bodies as we ll as the preparation of learned
treatises and articl es. Such activities serve to complement a nd to enrich
23

�the instruction. The casebooks and other teaching materials for a majority of the courses offered in th e Sch ool were prepared by the teachers
who conduct the classes, and many are widely used, standard works in
their respective fields.
Four Teachin g Associates are appointed a nnu ally to assist in the
ed ucation al program of the School. T h ese facu lty members, chosen from
the outstanding recent grad uates of American and British law schools,
in struct the first-year men on a tutorial and individual basis in the techniques of lega l writing, research, a nd oral argument; they work closely
with the enterin g stu dents 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 condu cted principall y through participation by the class. No longer does the student
lawyer listen passively in a lecture audience. To maximize the ed ucational benefits of active participation, Northwestern Law School h as
adop ted a curricular poli cy emph asizin g instruction through re lative ly
small classes and sem in ars. First-year co urses e nrolling 150 students or
more h ave no place in the Law School program. The entering stud ent
will find himseH a ttending classes with a group of less than half that size.
Seminars are limi ted in enrollment, a nd common ly range in size from
six or eight to 12 or 14 students. Instruction of this kind requires a low
student-faculty ratio. The program of the School is based upon the conviction that this co ncentration of educa tional resources upon the individu al studen t is most effec tive 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 stud y, is founded upon the premise that
th e 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 th e Law School in the earliest years of its
evolution. The materials of study are the actual decisions of courts,
embodied in ·writte n opin ions rendered in real and disputed cases, rather
th a n a textbook compendium of lega l rules. T h e cases themselves are the
specimens of legal controversy to be exam in ed and dissected. The student
24

�Casebooks and treat,ises by membe rs of the Law School faculty constitute
basic materials of instruction .

is brought to the level of a participant in the proceedin g, a nalyzing each
stage in the course of litiga tion a nd each step in the process of decision.
Through painstaking scrutin y of a large number of cases, the student
shares, vicar ious] y, the ex perience of the lawyers a nd judges who conducted th em, a nd thereby ga in s an understanding o f the judicial process
based on observatio n of the law in actio n a t first h a nd .
Although the case method var ies, in its use, with the approach of the
professor, th e teachin g styles grouped under this h eadin g h ave certain
ch aracteristic elements in common.
Under the case system, it is essential that students prepare thoroughly
a nd intensively before class. T h e course materials for this preparation
consist of a casebook, a collect io n of actual decisions in rela ted kinds of
controversy. T h e student at Northwestern will find that the authors of
many of hi s casebooks are his own pro lessors, a uthorities in their respective fields. T he class session in a case-taught course typically will n ot
offer a lecture but rath er a discussion of severa l of these cases, condu cted
in the manner of a Socratic dialogue between the teacher a nd students.
Questions are designed to test the student's understanding of the case,
to identify the co nsidera tion s that co ntrol led th e decision, a nd to probe
its implications for similar sit uations a nd its rela tion to other decisions.
The discussion is co ndu cted in a n a tmosphere of unrelenting qu estioning of each idea presented, by both fellow students a nd instru ctor.
Through the guidan ce of provocative questions, the students develop a
healthy skep ticism, a capacity for independent critical judgment, a nd
a tough-minded ap proach to lega l m a terials.
25

�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
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 schoo l 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
se ldom dull. Since the significant formulation in the progress of the discussion may well come from a fe ll ow student, and since any student may
be drawn into the discussion at any time, alertness and concentrated
attention is required of al l. 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 singularl y
exciting and stimu lating 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 prob26

�lem, based on his an alysis of r eleva nt source material. In the class sessio n h e, or one of his fellow stud e nts, will be invited to expl ain the legal
issu es presented b y the problem sit ua ti on a nd the views h e tak es o f those
issu es. Discussion , often vigorou s, foll ows.
Som e times a particu la r d ec ision or sta tute m ay rela te di rectl y to the
problem, a nd a t times the cl ass sessio n may b e d evoted to the examin ation of a leading case a nd its releva nce to the problem assigned . A t other
times th e probl em m ay fa ll in a n a rea wh ere the legal la ndma rks are
few, and the imagina tive use of sta tutor y m a terials a nd administra tive
r egula tions is r equired . Nor are the problem sessions m erely exercises
in d eveloping the technica l skills of the lawyer in m arsh alling a nd utilizing available legal m a terials in the solution of parti cular problems.
Often th e sp ecific, concrete probl em supplies the p ersp ective in which
basic qu es tio ns of socia l policy, o f th e wh y a nd h ow o f the d evelopmen t
of the law, ca n be considered in m ea nin g ful contex t.

SEMINARS
Opportunities are o ffered in the second a nd third years
fo r seminar work in a variety o f fields. H ere the student is free to se lect
su bjects of special interest to him, a nd to exp lore n ew areas of the law.
I n a group numberin g from eight to 14, with the gui da nce of a senior
fac ulty m ember, the studen t will engage in intensive indi vidual work on
som e aspect of the gen eral subj ect embraced b y the seminar. It is in the
semin ars tha t r esearch on th e fro nti ers of the law is m ost commonly
undertaken. Em ergin g areas of p olicy wh ere the resources of th e law m ay
contribute include, for examp le, the con trol of a tomic energy, urba n
ren ewal, extending equ al p ro tectio n of the laws into various as pects of
n a tion al life, and the peacefu l se ttlem ent of interna tio nal disputes. And
i t is in semin ar work tha t the law stude nt will b e expected to cut across
the disciplin es a nd to bring to the law addition al m a ter ia l from such
fields as economics, sociology, psychia try, a nd politica l science. Exp erts
i n su ch discip lin es frequ ently pa rticipa te in semin ar m eetings .
Norm ally the sem inar stude nt writes a m ajor p a per a nd presents this
p roduct of his own research fo r the critica l considera tio n of the seminar
group. W ith the stimulu s of special interest in the subj ect m a tter a nd the
spur of fri endly crit icism from interes ted fellow stude nts in prosp ect,
significa nt legal research is do ne in the semina rs. Some of the p a pers
a re printed in the professi onal jo urn als published by the Law School,
a nd research clone in the seminar program has on occasion bee n favorably

PRACTICE COURSES
On e hundred and fift y years ago
n o A merica n law schools a nd the aspirin g a ttorney prepa red
working in the office of a n es ta blished lawyer, observing the
law, a nd learning throu gh tr ia l a nd er ro r the arts a nd skills of

there wer e
himself by
practice of
th e profes27

�sion. The advantages of such training are preserved today, within a
systematic curricu lum for post-grad uate 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 exerc ising 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
edu cat ion the idea of giving law students actual experience in practice
by providing lega l services for the poor. Under this program, law students, during th e last half of their training, serve either in the Clinic
under the supervision of a faculty member appointed for the purpose, or
in the office of a n attorney to whom the student is assigned. The Clinic
handles all kinds of civil cases, a nd the stude nts consult with clients,
interview witnesses, prepare pleadings and oth er instruments, appear in
court, and assist in the condu ct of trials. The trainin g fills a £unction
simi lar 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 co urse in Moot Court. Practicing the
lawyer's skills, he is required to prepare a written brief in compli ance
with prevailing professional standards, and to argue his case, opposed by
a fe llow student, under courtroom conditions before a court composed
of prominent alumni and facu lty members.
In the third year, the student is offered a ch o ice of practice courses in
the trial of a lawsuit from its beginning to encl. The instruction provides
the student with actual experie nce in examin ing 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
co urtroom. To prepare its graduates for the work of cou nselling, advising, and planning, the Law School offers a number of practice courses in
wh ich 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 a nd 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
first and second years is normally required. In addition, he must satisfy
28

�the following requirements; a minimum of two hours of semi nar work
(involving substa ntial individual research and writing) exclusive of participation in the Law R eview Seminar; one h our of Legal Clinic (except
for m embers of th e Law R eview Board); the course in Professional R esponsib ility; a nd at least one course or semin ar in International L aw.
Although the faculty m ay change the requirements for graduation at any
time, this responsibility will not be exercised so as to place an undue
burden upon any e nrolled student who h as pl anned his program on the
basis of previously an noun ced requirements.

LIMITATIONS OF WORK
Courses totaling 16 credit-hours in a ny term, in the opinion of the
facu lty, represent the m aximum amount of work which a good stude nt
ca n do effectively under favorable conditions. A student who is under
any serious h a ndicap, su ch as a physical disability, the necessity of earning p art of his expenses, or commutin g for long distan ces, should reduce
his program . A studen t m ay be limited in his registra tion if, in the
opinion of the Dean, h e cannot undertake a full schedule with a prospect
of success.
LIMITED ENROLLMENT
T h e semin ars and the courses in T ri al Technique and Trial Practice
are limited in enrollment. T h e School cann ot assure tha t all stud ents
wishing to enroll in a particular semin ar, Trial Techniqu e, or Trial
Practice ca n be accommodated.

SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAMS
In th e total educationa l program of the Law School, the formal course work
within the curriculum is supplemented b y a variety of additional offerings. Lectures by distinguished scholars, jurists, and statesmen from the United States
a nd a broad serve as cultural adjuncts to the regular courses and emphasize the
broader public obligations of the profession. In r ecognition of the Law School's
role in the life of the profession, the community, and the n at ion, conferences
are held which bring together leaders of thought a nd action for discussion of
subj ec ts of major public importance. Through participation in these progra ms,
the student broad.ens his vision a nd develops the sense of public r esponsibility
wh ich characterizes the highest traditions of th.e bar.
Many of these curricular supplements are presented by the Law School as a n

THE
STUDENT
BODY
A well-seasoned aphorism, familiar to law students everywh ere, says
that a law student receives his education from his classmates. Like many
a n old saw, the observation contai ns within its exaggeration a kernel of
truth. Law school in struction is built upon student participation. Beyond the classroom, the student continues his professional preparation in
give-and-take discussion, corridor debate, and friend ly argument with
his fellows. The vitality of the Law School is measured by the quality
a nd vigor of its student bod y.
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 , facilitating wide acquaintance amon g
the students. For the past 30 years, the School has managed to keep the
size of its entering classes relatively constant, ranging between 100 and
150. For purposes of instruction, 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 lega l study at the highest and most challenging level.
His classma tes will be high-ranking graduates of the leading colleges and
48

�universities in the U ni ted States and abroad. In a spiri t of healthy competition, the stud ent realizes his own full capacities in keeping pace with
his fe ll ows.
Students ben efit from friendly relationships with fe ll ow students coming from a wide variety of b ackgrounds. The typical student body consis ts of men a nd women from some 30 states and eight or 10 fore ign
countries. More than 100 colleges and universities are represe nted by
gradu ates enroll ed in the Law School (see pg. 83). A va ri ety of undergraduate majors are included, and many stude nts h ave earn ed grad uate
degrees in oth er fields before entering the Law School.
Law students as a whole tend to be individualistic a nd vent uresome,
a nd a broad range of opi nion and experien ce is encompassed in the
student body. The stimu lating contacts of student life at the Law School
combine to develop a mature, tolerant, a nd broadened outlook in the
individual student.

LEGAL PUBLICATIONS
Foremost among the Law School's student activities is the publication
of the Northwestern University Law Review, one of the nation's leadi ng
profession al journ als. T h e R eview is circulated widely among lawyers
a nd judges, a nd is often cited in briefs a nd judicial opinions. The trad ition in the legal world of professional journals being accepted as
a uthoritative within the profession , although written , ed ited, a nd published by men who h ave not ye t achieved professional statu s, is unique
a mong the professions. Work on the Law R eview is at once the most
demand ing a nd rewarding experience ava ilable to the law stud ent.
T h e Northwestern Universi ty Law R eview was first established b y
studen ts of the school during the academic year 1892-93, within five years
of th e appeara nce of the first student journal in the n ation. Publicat ion
was continu ed in 1906, after a 10-year susp ension , under the title the
llli11 ois Law R eview.
For a period beginning in 1924 editorship was shared with the law
schools of the U nivers ity of Chicago a nd the U niversity of Illinois. In
1932, Northwestern students resumed full control a nd the original name
was subseq uently restored.
A t the beginning of their second year students of highest scholastic
standing are chosen to write comme ntary on legal problems for publication a nd to carry on the research, editing, a nd related work of the R eview.
Selection is one of the highes t honors a nd greatest responsibilities the
Law School can bestow. The work of the Law R eview is so integra ted
with the instructional program of the School that participation is normally a requisite for election to the Order of the Coif. Because of their
r ich ed u cationa l experience a nd res ulting excell ent qualification for
49

�any field of the profession, Law Review 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 Review participation are somewhat broader
than in other schools.
Although Law Review students work hard, they take one clay 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.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
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 legal
scholars and criminologists. The section on Police Science is under the
ed itorship of Mr. Ordway Hi lton , an examiner of questioned documents
in New York City, assisted by a board of Associate Editors in the fields of
criminalistics, police administration, and legal medicine. The Journal
is pub lished bi-monthly under the general supervision of Professor Freel
E. Inbau of the Law School faculty, the Managing Director.
Student comments and papers prepared in the seminars relating to
criminal law or in individual study are pub lished regularly in the
Journal. In combination with the Law Review, the Journal 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 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 ass istance of upperclassmen , and involves the preparation of appellate court briefs and the presentation of oral argument 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 course. Winners of the Lowden-Wigmore Prize are chosen through competition, and the School's representatives for competing with other law schools in the National Moot Court
Competition are also chose n. The final argument is conducted before
the entire student body, customari ly with distinguished judges from the
federal bench.

�STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY:
THE JUNIOR BAR ASS0CIATION
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 responsibi1ity
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 b y 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 stude nts on subjects of general interest,
and continuing the liberal education of the lawyer. 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, ass ists them with registration, and arranges for a reception a nd small advisory mee tings, all designed to welcome the beginner
a nd to ease the educational transition.
The Association operates a n exchange for the purchase and sale of
used casebooks and course materials, supplementing the facilities of the
Un iversity Bookstore in Abbott Hall and h elping students who must
eco nomize.
To preserve the memories and associations of Law School d ays, the
students write and publish the School's yearbook, The Wigmore. To
strengthen ties with former st udents and to inform the alumni of developments at the School, the students also publish the Law School Reporter,
a semi-annual magazine distributed to students a nd graduates.
In recognition of the Law School's place in the legal profesion at large,
the Northwestern Junior Bar Association is affiliated with the American Law Student Association, the national organization of men 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 Ba r 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, a nd to
the profession provides valuable training in the exercise of those responsibilities that distinguish the lawyer's calling as a profess ion.

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 ac tivities a t the Law School are sponsored by the

profession . (Right) The annual Faculty-Law Review softba ll game
reveals the teacher in a different guise.

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. Each student receives an
invitation to join a fraternity; none of these groups follows any discriminatory membership policy. 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 recreationa l 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 informal parties.
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 like 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.
!\3

�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 la,v 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 st imulation and discipline students give
one another have an impact that is directl y 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 H all, the Law School becomes the center of everyday life. The library a nd 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.
54

��Frequent special events bring eminent
jurists, outstanding government officials ,

and other noted speakers to the School.

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 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.
56

�The average room rate for the academic year is $335. 00 for each occupant. Before a room is occupied, a contract for the academic year is
signed by the appli cant.
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, Janu ary 1, a nd 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, shou ld be fil ed as
early as possible. For room applications, address the Ma nager, Abbott
Hall, 710 North Lake Shore Drive, Chicago 11.
For married students, there is a variety of apartments in the vicinity
of the Law School a nd within easy commutin g distance. For the convenience of stude n ts, a listing of available housing is maintained in
Abbott Hall.

STUDENT HEALTH SER VICE
Through the Student H ealth Service of the Univers ity, students of the
Law School are furnished medical care and treatment. T h e facilities of
the several hospitals associated with the U ni versity and situated on the
campus are available for confinement, and out-pa tient care and consultation are prov ided in the Med ical 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 Stu.dent Health Service Information Bulletin is ava il able
upon request.

THE
ACADEMIC
PROGRAM
The deepest traditions of the Law School are rooted in scholarship
and educa tional excellence. For more than a century, the Law
School has been devoted to improvement and innova tion in legal education. Its graduates and facu lty have numbered among 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
traditi on .

ADMISSION
Since its early years, the Law School has followed a policy of selective
admissio n to preserve its character as a cohesive academic community of
modest size and to assure continued educational standards of the highest
order. In consequen ce, the School is unable to accept m a ny applicants
who are capable of successfu l completion of legal studies and can qualify
for the practice of law.
Applicants are selected for admission upon a competitive basis of
demonstrated scholarship, intellectual capacity, and qualities of character
requisite to the profession. The School endeavors to admit only th ose
appli cants whose records indicate that they will successfully complete the
course of study.
58

�Application forms and information concerning admission requirements may be obtained by writing to the: Office of Admisions, Northwestern University School of Law, 357 East Chicago Avenue, Chicago 11,
Illinois.
Students beginning the study of law may enter the School at the opening of the first semester, in September, or of the second semester, in
February.
Before enrollment, the student must have obtained a bachelor's degree
from an approved college or university. In rare instances, exceptions to
this requirement may be made for students who have completed at least
three years of study with outstanding academic records, who have
achieved high scores in the Law School Admission Test, who are believed
to possess the maturity desirable for the study of law, and who present
special circumstances justifying early entrance.
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.
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 bachelors'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
a number of 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.
59

�Applicat ion s are co nsidered and acted upon as soon as the supporting
information has been received. Determinations are made upon a balanced evaluarion of the applicant's college record and the Law School
Adm issio n Test score, suppleme nted by the requ ired 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
circumstan ces are weighed a nd taken into account. Every doubtful applica tion is thoroughly discussed a nd examin ed by a committee of faculty
members, which may seek further in format ion from the applicant, his
co llege or professors, or request the student to appear for an interview
to assist the committee in its deliberations.
An appli cant who is accepted for admiss ion 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,
wh ich ever is later. An applicant accepted for admission as a member of
the class entering in February is required to make the deposit by the
15th of the preceding December or within thirty clays of the notice of
accepta n ce, whichever is later. Upon registration, the deposit is appl ied
toward the payment of tuition.
No applicant previously enrolled in another law school will be admitted if he is ineligible to cont inue study at that school.

TRANSFERS
The admission of students previously enrolled in other law schools
who wish to become candidates for the degrees of Juris Doctor or Bachelor of Laws 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 Jaw
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 con templated,
and two recommendations from former instructors, at least one a law
school instructor. A statement of class standing sho uld also be subm itted.
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 appli cation.
The granting of credit for courses completed in other schools and the
allowance of advanced standi ng 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
60

�Schools or for co urses in which the student received a grad e below C or
its equivale nt.
A stude nt enrolled in anoth er school may be admitted for the summer sess ion, for a single sem ester, or for specified courses , upon a certificate of good standing from the school in which h e is perman ently
enrolled.

PRE-LEGAL STUDY
A bachelor's degree in arts or scien ce is requ ired for admission to the
Law School, but no specific fie lds of m ajor study or particular courses are
prescribed . T he purpose of the requirement is to provide the prospective
lawyer with a sound liberal educa tion for the disch arge of his broader
professio nal respon sibilities as well as to provide a foundation for law
school training. Since the reach of th e law's con cerns may b e as wide as
th e range of human behav ior, n o particular course of undergradu ate
study co nfers a spec ial adva ntage in th e law.
College curricu la vary, the co ntent of courses bearing the sam e title
may b e dissimi lar, a nd teaching a ttitudes a nd emphases differ. Accordingly sugges tion s must be ge nera l. Courses in su ch fields as history, econom ics, anthropology, sociology, government, and poltical science may
h elp the stude nt to unders ta nd the structure of society and the problems
of social orderin g with which the law is co ncerned. Studies in philosophy
a nd li terature may impart a fami liarity with the traditions of thought
that h ave influenced legal developments. T h e examination of human
behavior in courses in psychology a nd its a nalysis through statist ical
method m ay also prove worthwhile.
In deve loping the capacities a nd skills of the lawyer, the college stu d ent sh ould pursue studies tha t wi ll enha nce his power to express himse lf ·with clarity a nd force. English, language courses, a nd public speaking can be recommended, but the capacities may b e developed as well in
oth er courses in which written work of high quali ty is demanded. For
th e systematic ordering of abstractions a nd ideas, the physical, natural,
a nd mathematical sciences, in addition to logic, may be suggested.
Apart from subject matter, the student preparing for the study of law
should tak e courses of sufficient d ifficulty to try his capacities to the
utmost, to assis t in the development of the r igorous intellectu al discipline
essen tia l to su ccess in law school. He would be well advised, in addition,
to pursu e his studies far enough in some definite field to a ttain a m astery
of the subject, to gain the experien ce of deep a nd thorough understanding. The typical student is more likely to extend himself and thereby to
increase his cap aci ties for law study if he follows the bent of his own
inter ests and tastes.
It is perhaps advisable, however, for the prospective law student to
61

�Robert R. McCormick Ha ll , dedicated in
1960 through alumni gifts , completes
the La w School quadrangle .

avoid undergradu ate 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 shou ld be noted
that a student wi ll 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 particu la rly and narrowly for his law school st udies, but to
prepare for his life as a lawyer by obtaining the best available general
education. He wi ll 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, a nd circumstan ces of the stude nt. As a base from which individual estimates may be drawn,
the sum of $2400 approximates the total expense for the academic year of the
average unmarried student r esiding in Abbott Hall , the L aw Schol dormitory.
Of this total, slightly more than $ 1100 is required for tuition, fees, books and
supplies. The remainder represents the typical expenditure for room, board,
a nd personal n eeds.

TUITION

The student's total invest ment in his legal edu cation, whi le large in absolute
terms, is insubstanti al in co mparison with its total re turns in the d ecades of his

62

�professio nal li[e. Short-term eco nomies often prove wasteful in the lo ng run.
In the interests o f its stude nts, th e L aw School h as made every effort to hold
down the costs, but in the sam e interests it has refused to sacrifice any of the
eleme nts of a legal educat ion of the highest quality. The cost of each student's
educa tion is only partly covered by his tuition payments. A substantial portion
is paid from income from endowments and from annual gifts of alumni and
fr ie nds of Northwestern .

SCHOLARSHIPS, GRANTS, AND
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
If a student h as the ability and motiva tion necessary for the study of
law, the School is committed to providing all possibl e assistance so
th a t h e can r each his educa tion al goals. T hrough scholarships, grants,
loa ns, and a limited amount of p art-time work, m any students are able to
complete their law studies a t orthwes tern with a minimum of initial
savings or outside finan cial aid.

SCHOLARSHIPS AND GRANTS
Approxima tely one third of the School's entering students receive
financi al assistan ce in the form of scholarships or gr ants. T h e amounts
of the awards var y from a portion of tuition to full tuition plu s a stipend
for subsisten ce. Ordinarily a n award of fin a ncial assistan ce to a first-year
student is r enewed as a m a tter of course for hi s second and third year
if h e m ainta in s a commendable class sta nding.
65

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

All or part of an award may be made subject to an obligation of
repayment after graduation. In these cases, repayment is ordinarily
arranged on an installment basis 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 financial assistance are m ade upon the basis of academic
promise and need. Each application is individually considered by a com mittee of faculty members and each award is determined by an individu al
ap praisal of the student's qualifications for law study and monetary
needs. For students of exceptional ability who h ave adequ ate resources
for law study, a limi tecl number of honorary scholarships are awarded
a nnu ally in recognition of pre-legal achievement. These special scholarships, described below, carry only a nominal fina ncial 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 appli cation
forms are required for the Clarion DeWitt Hardy Scholarships, described
below.
An application for financial assista nce need not accompany the appli cation for adm ission, but shou ld be submitted early to ass ure consideration before funds are committed.
66

�The available funds are:

Clarion DeWitt H ardy Scholarships in Law. H ardy Scholarships providi ng for up to full tuition, plus up to $700 per year in additional funds
when needed for expenses, are available for three students in each enterin g class. The amount is sufficient, with average summer earnings, to enable a student to meet all typical costs of a year of law study. The schola rships are renewed each year for scholars who m aintain a good record
a nd meet the other sta ndards of the program. The scholarships are in
honor of the late Professor Clarion DeWitt Hardy of the School of Speech,
a nd were es tablished by Owen L. Coon, an alumnus who died in 1948,
in memory of the m a n "who contributed most" to his education . The
purpose of the scholarships is to assist able students whose desire to e nter
the legal profession includes the object ive of devoting a p art of their
lives to public service. Requirements, in addition to expressed interest

The scholarships impart in full the recognition and honor of scholarship status, but confer only a nominal financial award.

LOANS
In addition to the financial assistance awarded at the beginning of
the academic year in the form of repayable grants, loan funds are available during the course of the year to students enrolled in the School.
Loans are without interest until one year after graduation; thereafter,
interest accrues at the rate of 2½ or 3 per cent, depending upon the
source of funds. These funds are devoted primarily to the needs of students who encounter an unexpected change of financial circumstance.

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 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.
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.
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 ineligible for a degree.
Grades received at other schools are not considered in determining the
average grade.
70

�At the option of the instructor, grades in courses and semmars 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

73

�The degree of Juris Doctor 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 page 28. 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 receive the degree of Bachelor of L aws 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 first-year
courses in the School of Law, or upon the complet ion 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 awarded the degree
of Bachelor of Science in Law upon the satisfactory completion of the
first year of work in the School of Law with a grade average of not less
than 68.
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 oppor74

�tunity to expand their knowledge of American legal processes and to
engage in comparative legal research.
Inquiries concerni ng gradu ate study should be addressed to the Office
of Admiss ions of the Law School. No application fee is required of
fore ign 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.
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 successfu lly the degree requirements.
Experience indicates that foreign students whose n ative language is
not English have great difficulty in meeting the requirements unless they
have a good command of written and spoken E nglish.
DEGREES
Two graduate degrees are gran ted: the degree of Master of Laws
(LL.M.) and the degree of Doctor of Juridical Science (S.J.D.).
Master of Laws (LL.NI.). The degree of Master of Laws will be conferred upon stude nts 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 facul ty. 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 wi ll be
required to maintain a superior scholarship record. Each graduate student's course program is individually planned in light of the student's
cho ice of a thesis topic. Also, students who h ave not previously taken
Jurisprudence and Comparative Law will be required to enroll in these
seminars . To the extent necessary to estab lish a background for their
research, the Graduate Committee may, in i t 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
75

�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 Th e 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
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 a t 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 $1,300 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 grad76

�uate students, and 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 $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 h as 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 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 has made a grant of
$5,000 for research in the field of International Law. A fellowship will
be 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
77

�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 a ttainments 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 1.

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.
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 b alance 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
78

�opportumt1es 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 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
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.
79

�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 cleans,
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 L aw 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.
A biographical summary is prepared and duplica ted 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.

�In this century , four distinguished scholars
and educators have led Northwestern 's
School of Law. Dean John Ritchie assumed
the post in 1957.
Informal conference s with faculty members
complement regular course work.

�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 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. An alumni dinner
is held annually in Chicago with a prominent guest speaker.
Officers and directors of the Law Alumni Association for the academic.
year 1961-62 are:
