procedure course, so there is a substantial basis for
understanding," Brohman says. "One can compare it to a
law review. For example, an articles editor might be
assigned to edit an article on antitrust law without having
had an interest in or classroom exposure to the subject.
"Each student author and editor will research in-depth
the particular subject of a project. By the time it is com
pleted, the student will have a comprehensive knowledge
of the subject." Brohman continued, "The whole point is
that this is a learning process for us; another opportunity
to learn something in-depth about the law."
Students who join the Journal staff quickly learn that
they are carrying on a tradition which has made a signifi
cant contribution to the prestige and heritage of the School
of Law. Indeed, the Journal was founded in 1910 by the
School's most famous dean and scholar John Henry Wig

There is, not surprisingly, a long-standing but amicable
rivalry between the staffs of the Journal and the Northwest
ern University Law Review, both sides claiming in-house
supremacy. Brohman, a 24-year-old senior from Olympia
Hills, Illinois, bases his claim that "the Iournal is the num
publication at the School" not only on the Journal's
circulation and reputation, but also on another ingredient
particularly important to the student staff-the opportunity
for publication. During the 1977-78 school year, 32 stu
dent-written casenotes and comments appeared in the Jour
nal's four quarterly issues.
"We want to encourage student writing," says Brohman.
"Because criminal law encompasses so many legal areas,
our staff members have the opportunity to write on almost
any subject that interests them, from securities regulation
to the First Amendment. Work of outstanding quality is
produced because the students are able to select their own
topics."
Many student pieces appear each winter in the Journal's
annual Supreme Court review issue.
The Journal's broad reach helps ensure continuing stu
dent enthusiasm and involvement. Staff membership is not

of Northwestern's American In

exclusively by professionals until 1931.
Limited student participation began that year with the in

In the years that followed, the student role expanded stead
ily until finally, in the late 1960s, a decision was made to
transfer to students responsibility for the entire publica

The Northwestern Law Reporter
Description
An account of the resource
The Reporter (1949-1981) began in 1949 as an eight-page newsletter created to inform alumni, friends, and colleagues of the achievements and events of Northwestern University School of Law and its community of students, faculty, and alumni. The Reporter was originally a student publication, and its founding editors were members of what was then called the Junior Bar Association (now known as the Student Bar Association). In 1981, it was succeeded by the Northwestern Reporter (1981-1997), and grew into a substantial magazine. Together the two publications ran for nearly a half century, chronicling everything from the Law School’s sponsorship of the first-ever conference of law reviews in 1949 to a 1996 program commemorating the efforts of Law School faculty and students in overturning the wrongful death penalty conviction of Rolando Cruz. In 2012, the magazine made a comeback with a new name, Northwestern Law Reporter (2012- ) and is currently in production.

The Northwestern Law Reporter
Description
An account of the resource
The Reporter (1949-1981) began in 1949 as an eight-page newsletter created to inform alumni, friends, and colleagues of the achievements and events of Northwestern University School of Law and its community of students, faculty, and alumni. The Reporter was originally a student publication, and its founding editors were members of what was then called the Junior Bar Association (now known as the Student Bar Association). In 1981, it was succeeded by the Northwestern Reporter (1981-1997), and grew into a substantial magazine. Together the two publications ran for nearly a half century, chronicling everything from the Law School’s sponsorship of the first-ever conference of law reviews in 1949 to a 1996 program commemorating the efforts of Law School faculty and students in overturning the wrongful death penalty conviction of Rolando Cruz. In 2012, the magazine made a comeback with a new name, Northwestern Law Reporter (2012- ) and is currently in production.

"In the past there has been some question about whether

teaching of the

skepticism toward clinical education on the part of some

findings of our study, stated briefly, were these:
1. First, nearly all authorization card signers want
union representation at the time they sign the card, and a
substantial majority of the signers ultimately vote union.
Eighty-two percent of card signers said they wanted union
representation when they signed the card. (Fourteen per
cent said they were uncertain and only 4 percent said that
when they signed the card, they did not want union repre
sentation.) Seventy-five percent of the card-signers ulti
mately voted union.
2. Second, the content of the campaign, what is said
and how it is said, does not generally affect vote.
(a) Recall of the campaign was low, with the average
voter able to remember only three or four of the 30 to 40
issues that made up the typical campaign.
(b) The switchers to the employer, those who planned
to vote for union representation, but ultimately voted
against, were no more familiar with the content of the
employer campaign than those who stayed loyal to the
union. This suggests that switching to the employer was
not due to paying attention to, and being influenced by, the
content of the employer's campaign.
( c) The switchers to the union, those who planned to
vote against union representation, but ultimately voted for
the union, were significantly more familiar with the union
campaign than those who did not switch. There were,

advantage in com
municating with employees about union representation.
Turning now to S. 1883, we support those provisions
that would speed up the operations of the Board,
particu
larly with regard to the prompt conduct of elections. The
bill provides for a particularly prompt election when over
half the employees have signed union authorization cards,
but does not dispense with an election under such circum
stances. We think that this is entirely appropriate. While
nearly all card signers want union representation at the
time they sign the card, approximately 25 percent of them
eventually decide not to vote for the union. They appar
ently go through a process of reconsideration, and we think
that they should have the opportunity to engage in this
process. The pending bill allows 15 days from petition
to election for the employees to decide if
they really want
a union, and we think that this is
ample.
Some might argue that the time period should be longer,
so that the employer would have more time in which to
communicate his views to employees, but we do not agree.
Our data indicate that employees' voting intent is pretty
well set at the time the election is directed, and that, to
the extent that

the
employer's campaign that persuades them
to do so. They have been working for him, some for many
years, and they don't need a series of speeches and letters
from their boss to tell them what their working conditions
are and how they feel about them-they know!
It may be thought desirable, as a matter of increasing
free and informed choice, to insure that the employer has
time to point out the negative or less favorable aspects of
unionization, which the union organizer may not have
done. It may also be thought desirable, again in order to
increase free choice, to insure that the employer has time
to make plain to his employees that he is aware of their
problems, and that, union or no union, he will deal with
those problems. We think that two to three weeks is
ample for the communication of these or other employer
messages. We also think that any substantial further delay,
particularly when a majority has signed authorization cards,

serve no purpose other than to frustrate the effectu

representation, and those who do not, but who want
promptly resolved, one way or the other.
We also support those portions of the bill that provide
for quicker and more effective remedies when an employer
uses his economic power to retaliate against employees
engaged in a union organizing campaign. While our data
do not indicate that such retaliatory efforts serve to deter
those employees who are already committed to the union,
we think it entirely likely that such efforts do contribute
to a climate of fear that discourages other employees from

whenever an employee is discharged during an organizing
campaign, the burden of proof should be on the employer
to show that the discharge was not based on that em
ployee's union activities.
Finally, we support that portion of the pending bill that
provides for increasing union access to employees when
the employer uses working time or premises to campaign
against the union. Our data show quite plainly that the
employer who conducts campaign meetings on working
time and premises has a substantial advantage over the
union in communicating with employees. Many employees
know little or nothing about unions prior to the union
organizing campaign, and, as a practical matter, have

increased knowledge of unionization that employees gain

about this process. It is simply a matter of informed choice

of the
pending bills goes far enough, and that is in the protection
of free speech. Section 5 of the Williams-J avits bill re
quires the Board to codify its rules on prohibited election
interference, apparently to push the Board toward simplify
ing those rules. Section 6 of the Hatch-Tower bill, S. 1885,
would extend Section 8 (c), the so-called "free speech"
provision, to representation proceedings. While both of
these suggestions move the law in the right direction, nei
ther, as I have stated, goes far enough.
It is our judgment, and we recommend in our book, that
NLRB regulation of speech should be terminated, and that
the parties should be free to say what they wish during
the pre-election campaign. Since our data show no evi
dence that currently unlawful speech has any greater effect
on vote than lawful
speech, there is little to be gained by
government regulation. There is, however, much to be
lost, both in terms of the costs of such regulation, and in
terms of the possible frustration of employee free choice.
For, we believe, employee free choice is sometimes frus
trated through delay in its effectuation, and at other times
is frustrated when the NLRB, on the basis of its views as
the impact of campaign speech, sets aside an election
to

Despite his modest self-evaluation, this easy-going senior
faculty member has been sought out, consulted, recommended
for, requested and selected to participate in a wide assortment
of professional activities while carrying through with teaching
responsibilities and research interests.
Hillman is currently serving as consultant to the United
States Railway Association (USRA), a non-profit government
corporation created under the Regional Rail Reorganization
Act of 1973 to plan and finance a restructured railway sys
tem.
His involvement is an outgrowth of 18 months "on
leave" work in Washington, D.C., as general counsel to the
Association, helping to prepare a financial and corporate plan
and legislative package that gave birth to ConRail. A govern
ment-financed railroad corporation, ConRail was created by
Congress when it decided to reorganize the bankrupt Penn

Hillman's work with USRA was not only of public signi

academic interest in the area of transportation regulation and
policy.

senior securities-with the equity interests remaining in
private hands.
In choosing this latter course under the Regional Rail
Reorganization Act of 1973, Congress established the
United States Railway Association (USRA) as the prin
cipal agency for carrying out its purposes. As a by-prod
uct of this main task, the work of the Association provided
an important focus for Congress on the emergent prob
lems of other major portions of the national rail system.
For particularly at the depths of the economic down
turn, many ominous signals of physical and financial dete
rioration were being emitted from other segments of the
system. The insights gained and articulated by USRA in
assessing factors contributing both to the Northeast rail
crisis and the widening rail malaise were an important con
tribution to the

importantly by the same factors which influence the eco

passenger operations and for subsidized light density
branch lines; the raising of all depressed rates at least to

expectations often inspire an instinctive defense of "one's

be overcome-perhaps in part through a growing sense of
enlightened self-interest which recognizes that without a

in danger.

The Northwestern Law Reporter
Description
An account of the resource
The Reporter (1949-1981) began in 1949 as an eight-page newsletter created to inform alumni, friends, and colleagues of the achievements and events of Northwestern University School of Law and its community of students, faculty, and alumni. The Reporter was originally a student publication, and its founding editors were members of what was then called the Junior Bar Association (now known as the Student Bar Association). In 1981, it was succeeded by the Northwestern Reporter (1981-1997), and grew into a substantial magazine. Together the two publications ran for nearly a half century, chronicling everything from the Law School’s sponsorship of the first-ever conference of law reviews in 1949 to a 1996 program commemorating the efforts of Law School faculty and students in overturning the wrongful death penalty conviction of Rolando Cruz. In 2012, the magazine made a comeback with a new name, Northwestern Law Reporter (2012- ) and is currently in production.

history and mission in seeking
ways to implement the School's ob
jectives. Our Law School has always
pursued excellence, and Wigmore,
Green, Havighurst, Ritchie and
Rahl, my predecessors as dean, pro
vide strong examples.
As you will read in forthcoming
of
issues of The
Reporter, the members
of the Law School's
faculty are enor
mously capable, they are fine teach
ers and scholars, and they are very
much involved in community affairs.
Many of them are famous within the
specialized areas of their profes
sional interests, and are regarded as
being at the forefront of the bar and
legal education. In a sense, the
School's reputation depends upon
collective perceptions by others re
garding
the excellence of these fac
ulty members, and my duties include
not only the responsibility of moti
vating our faculty toward greater ac
complishment, but also the task of
assuring that news of their activities
is widely circulated.
Although the general reputation
for excellence of Northwestern Uni

depends a
great deal upon its history and its
faculty, that reputation is also in

our alumni. The prominence of men

stimulating possible fashion. Our 1976 Annual Fund Drive,
led by Dick Kelly and a host of hard-working alumni, pro
duced the highest total in the School's history- over
$300,000, or about 9% of the School's costs, as well as a new
record in percentage of givers, almost 30%, showing a con

one day soon of 40 to 50%.
Gifts from non-alumni and be

kind of base support is one of the best possible undergirdings
for the drive for increased quality to which the School always
aspires.
Northwestern is highly regarded where it counts. Our
graduates are in first place among all law schools in the hir

particularly surprising since Socrates himself
rewarded his students for good performance. In support of
this proposition, Dr. Watson cites a passage from Mary Re

which Socrates, after one of his students had given a particu

on the student's shoulder.

appeared apologetically before him as a defendant in Traffic
Court, said: "Do you mean to say, Mr. Nathanson, you are
not going to rely on Marbury v. Madison?"
For a while I staged a comeback even with this standard.
In the heyday of the Watergate litigation, Messrs. Cox and
Wright, Jaworski and St. Clair were all relying on Marbury v.
Madison. Now, however, even this too is ancient history.
Most of us do try to instill a touch of modernity into our
teaching-if only to stimulate interest. It is really hard to
know how far to carry this. We all feel that we are teaching
for the long pull-not for the bar exam or for the first few
days or even years of practice. Particularly those of us who
have been teaching for quite a while in a particular area think
we recognize the basic themes that appear again and again
in different guises over the years. We know that we cannot
anticipate the particular setting in which they will appear ten
years hence, but we think we do understand the fundamental
themes, and we want to impart some of that understanding.
We cherish a faith-perhaps a self-serving one-that such
understanding will provide our students with a firm founda
tion for grappling with problems that none of us can foresee,
except in their most elemental and perhaps abstruse terms,
separated from the contemporary garb of the future which
will give them a new vitality and significance.
If you arc with me so far-which I appreciate may be an
unwarranted assumption-we must still struggle with the prob
lem of how best to impart such understanding. As to this, I
believe there is no real consensus even among our own faculty
-to say nothing of a broader cross-section of the academic
community. Some of us cling stubbornly to the faith that we
serve best our long-range functions when we act as purveyors
of information or even ideas; that understanding is deeper and
truer, more lasting and more reliable, when it is the hard
earned product of individual or cooperative effort, rather than

subsidiary question is whether the skills associated with com

For the most part, trial practice courses at Northwestern
make no effort to teach these elements of advocacy. Rather,
we stress thorough preparation,
ethical constraints and the
acquisition of rudimentary technical skills.
The trial practice class which I taught met two consecutive
"
hours per week for fifteen weeks. It was divided into three dis
crete segments. During the first few meetings, the "universal

�preparation rule" applied, which meant that each student
might be called upon-without notice-to perform a simple
trial task, e.g., introduction of a document, impeachment of a
witness with a prior inconsistent statement, laying a foundation
for expert testimony, conducting a simple direct examination.

required in the second part of the course.
During this second phase, students engage in advance pre
paration of a trial problem. Typically, the problem requires
an integration of substantive theory and tactical approaches.
A written outline must be presented prior to the performance.
That outline summarizes the theory of the case, along with
an analysis of its strengths and weaknesses; the specific ob
jective for the phase of the case assigned for performance;
the relationship of the performance segment to the theory and
overall plan for the complete trial; and finally, identifies the
risks that must be guarded against during the performance.

This does not limit the role of the law

schools in
Legal educators have recognized the effective combination of
theory and practice for appellate argument. Most law schools
offer some form of moot court appellate argument, appar
ently on the theory that the students must learn not only to
write briefs but to present the arguments orally. The same
rationale can, should and does undergird the teaching of
trial advocacy. The students must know how to present the
facts to sustain the substantive theory which forms the basis
of the brief and appellate argument. There is no better place
to begin than near the beginning-at the trial.
Bayless Manning has opposed trial advocacy training in the
law schools with the argument that "as presently designed,
staffed and financed, [law schools 1 are basically ill-adapted to
take on the function of training for litigation." While ac
knowledging that there is no a priori limitation on a law
school's ability to teach trial advocacy, Manning suggests three
practical constraints: few law professors have actual trial ex
perience or are interested in teaching trial practice; law schools
are not designed for trial advocacy and have no "traffic flow"
of litigable cases for students to practice on; and reduction of
traditional educational activities is a necessary corollary to
the teaching of trial advocacy, which requires a low student
faculty ratio.s The limitation to Manning's argument is that
his vision of legal education is wedded to the past, and the
future need not be a prisoner of the past.
It is important to recognize that the conditions which Man
ning identifies as impediments to the teaching of trial practice
in law schools are not inexorable. It is not impossible to en
gage faculty persons with trial experience who devote full
time to legal education (Exhibit A-the author). It is pos
sible to include courtrooms in law school buildings (Exhibit

School)."
It is
possible to design prac
(Exhibit C-McElhaney's
trial practice text, among others). Finally, traditional courses
have often been replaced, or supplemented, by new offerings
(Exhibit D-catalogs of most first-rate law schools).
Happily, Northwestern has many of the ingredients neces
sary for teaching trial advocacy-practitioners who moon
light as professors (plus full-time professors with trial prac
tice experience), Getz Courtroom, and special interest sem
inars in various areas, including at least three trial advocacy
courses.
In addition, Northwestern has enjoyed the coopera
tion of judges who donate time to hear mock trial cases. Apart
from trial advocacy, the Law School has also continued to
acknowledge the value of a low student-faculty ratio in all

The Northwestern Law Reporter
Description
An account of the resource
The Reporter (1949-1981) began in 1949 as an eight-page newsletter created to inform alumni, friends, and colleagues of the achievements and events of Northwestern University School of Law and its community of students, faculty, and alumni. The Reporter was originally a student publication, and its founding editors were members of what was then called the Junior Bar Association (now known as the Student Bar Association). In 1981, it was succeeded by the Northwestern Reporter (1981-1997), and grew into a substantial magazine. Together the two publications ran for nearly a half century, chronicling everything from the Law School’s sponsorship of the first-ever conference of law reviews in 1949 to a 1996 program commemorating the efforts of Law School faculty and students in overturning the wrongful death penalty conviction of Rolando Cruz. In 2012, the magazine made a comeback with a new name, Northwestern Law Reporter (2012- ) and is currently in production.

This digital collection was the vision of David S. Ruder, and the digitatization was funded by his generous support. Professor Ruder was the William W. Gurley Memorial Professor of Law Emeritus. A member of the Northwestern Law faculty since 1961, Professor Ruder was Dean of the Law School from 1977-1985, and Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission from 1987-1989. He remained a part of the Law School faculty until his passing in 2020.
Shan Jiang was project manager for this digitization. Special thanks to Claire Stewart, Dan Zellner, and Paul Clough of the Northwestern University Library Digital Collections Department for advice, technical support, and loading content, and for hosting the collection in Northwestern Books. Scanning was performed by Backstage Library Works. Copyright 1949-1997 & 2011, Northwestern University School of Law.

r wish to express a deep sense of appreciation for the manner of your

our
many requests
for
cooperation
and assistance.
Material contributions are by no means the only benefits which you
generously provide for the School. Many of you assist our educational
programs greatly, and by the record you make in your pursuits, the School
gains enormously from the high standing which you bring to its name.
The

history, coupled with generous gifts from non-alumni friends. The grand
total of $1,130,256, made up of both gifts and bequests, is impressive
These gifts make a huge difference in crucial areas
QY any standard.
�here the University budget, pressed by rapidly rising costs, is unable
to provide all the support we need.
Last year, r reported that almost
9% of the school's costs were being met from annual gift funds, and a
similar pattern continues
this
year.
This would not have been
possible without the work of Richard S. Kelly,
Fund, and the many other alumni who have
worked tirelessly and effectively on the campaign.
r know that our new dean,
our colleague David S. Ruder, will not only receive the same kind of coopera
tion, but can look forward to continually increasing support of all kinds.

the
remaining amount, $82,175 was contributed for schol

$200,000 goal which we had set for the campaign!
I am also pleased to report that the percentage of alumni participat
ing in the Fund increased by 4% to 29%, with 1,443 alwnni contributing. Last
year, Jim Rahl told us that the Law School is determined to provide as ex
cellent a program of legal education and research as can be found at any
school in the nation.
By responding to the 1976 Fund Drive, these contribu
tors have assured that the School will continue to
strengthen its programs
and stay at a competitive level.
MY sincere appreciation goes to each of
you.
The achievements_of the campaign would have been impossible without
the combined efforts of the many Class
Representatives (listed in the en
closed report), Alwnni Association and Wigmore Club officers and other alum
ni volunteers who assisted.
I extend special thanks to them for the
service which they have given the School.
loyal
We continue to seek to increase the number of alwnni who
participate
in the Alwnni Fund.
It is not as high as it can and should be.
After
having the opportunity to work closely with the Law School administration,
it is clear to me that Northwestern deserves our
strong support as Dave
Ruder assumes the deanship in September.
He will need our constant assis
tance if he is to accomplish his goals.
Jim Otis has agreed to serve as Vice Chairman of the Law Alumni Fund
for 1977 and together we have set targets of
$350,000 and 35% participation.
With your help, they are attainable.

The Northwestern Law Reporter
Description
An account of the resource
The Reporter (1949-1981) began in 1949 as an eight-page newsletter created to inform alumni, friends, and colleagues of the achievements and events of Northwestern University School of Law and its community of students, faculty, and alumni. The Reporter was originally a student publication, and its founding editors were members of what was then called the Junior Bar Association (now known as the Student Bar Association). In 1981, it was succeeded by the Northwestern Reporter (1981-1997), and grew into a substantial magazine. Together the two publications ran for nearly a half century, chronicling everything from the Law School’s sponsorship of the first-ever conference of law reviews in 1949 to a 1996 program commemorating the efforts of Law School faculty and students in overturning the wrongful death penalty conviction of Rolando Cruz. In 2012, the magazine made a comeback with a new name, Northwestern Law Reporter (2012- ) and is currently in production.

1976
To Our Alumni:
The Faculty of the Law School is determined to maintain as
excellent a program of legal education and research as can be
found at any school in the nation.
We take pride in our position
and at the same time are keenly aware of our needs.
The Univer
sity is limited in the financial resources which can be made
available to the School, particularly in today's economic circum
stances.
In this setting, gifts are absolutely critical to our
ability to carry out our mission.
The many alumni who worked and who gave in the 1975 Law
Fund Drive have provided essential funds for some of our
research, library, scholarship, clinical and other needs. \�e
share John Notz's pleasure in the increased number of givers, and
understandably we have high hopes that the enlarged goals for
1976 will be met.
Alumni
The Law School benefited greatly during the year not only
gifts, but also from important special gifts, grants,
and bequests from both alumni and non-alumni.
From all sources
for 1975, a respectable total of over $500,000 was achieved, and
some of the details are given in the attached Report.-
from annual
To all of our friends and supporters, I wish, on behalf of
the faculty, students and staff, to express lasting gratitude.
I hope very much that it is understood that the Law School could
not possibly be what it is today, nor could it think of achieving
what it hopes to achieve, without you.
Sincerely,
�O

The Northwestern Law Reporter
Description
An account of the resource
The Reporter (1949-1981) began in 1949 as an eight-page newsletter created to inform alumni, friends, and colleagues of the achievements and events of Northwestern University School of Law and its community of students, faculty, and alumni. The Reporter was originally a student publication, and its founding editors were members of what was then called the Junior Bar Association (now known as the Student Bar Association). In 1981, it was succeeded by the Northwestern Reporter (1981-1997), and grew into a substantial magazine. Together the two publications ran for nearly a half century, chronicling everything from the Law School’s sponsorship of the first-ever conference of law reviews in 1949 to a 1996 program commemorating the efforts of Law School faculty and students in overturning the wrongful death penalty conviction of Rolando Cruz. In 2012, the magazine made a comeback with a new name, Northwestern Law Reporter (2012- ) and is currently in production.

This digital collection was the vision of David S. Ruder, and the digitatization was funded by his generous support. Professor Ruder was the William W. Gurley Memorial Professor of Law Emeritus. A member of the Northwestern Law faculty since 1961, Professor Ruder was Dean of the Law School from 1977-1985, and Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission from 1987-1989. He remained a part of the Law School faculty until his passing in 2020.
Shan Jiang was project manager for this digitization.

Stephen B. Goldberg, formerly
professor of law at the University of
Illinois, served as a visiting scholar
last year in connection with his
research on the election procedures of
the National Labor Relations Board.
Spalding, professor of law and
associate dean, is nearing the end of a
five-year study on the legal needs of
the public. The study is the work of
the ABA's Special Committee to
Survey Legal Needs created in 1971.
Spalding is
the reporter to the
committee.
In 1973, the committee contracted
Opinion Research
with the National
sample of 2,064
adults, scientifically selected to be
representative of the adult population,
to determine just what legal problems
are most frequently confronted, the
attitudes toward lawyers and their
experiences with the legal system.
"The information gathered in the
survey was basic to the functioning of
the legal system and delivery of legal
services; it is surprising that such a
Center to survey
a
survey had not been done before,"
observed Spalding, a specialist in legal
systems.
A preliminary report of the study
presented last August showed about
two-thirds of those surveyed have used
the services of a lawyer at least once.
The final report that will examine in
detail the data gathered should be
by early 1976, Spalding adds.
Spalding estimates the total cost of

$700,000 and $750,000. Major

The Northwestern Law Reporter
Description
An account of the resource
The Reporter (1949-1981) began in 1949 as an eight-page newsletter created to inform alumni, friends, and colleagues of the achievements and events of Northwestern University School of Law and its community of students, faculty, and alumni. The Reporter was originally a student publication, and its founding editors were members of what was then called the Junior Bar Association (now known as the Student Bar Association). In 1981, it was succeeded by the Northwestern Reporter (1981-1997), and grew into a substantial magazine. Together the two publications ran for nearly a half century, chronicling everything from the Law School’s sponsorship of the first-ever conference of law reviews in 1949 to a 1996 program commemorating the efforts of Law School faculty and students in overturning the wrongful death penalty conviction of Rolando Cruz. In 2012, the magazine made a comeback with a new name, Northwestern Law Reporter (2012- ) and is currently in production.

The Northwestern Law Reporter
Description
An account of the resource
The Reporter (1949-1981) began in 1949 as an eight-page newsletter created to inform alumni, friends, and colleagues of the achievements and events of Northwestern University School of Law and its community of students, faculty, and alumni. The Reporter was originally a student publication, and its founding editors were members of what was then called the Junior Bar Association (now known as the Student Bar Association). In 1981, it was succeeded by the Northwestern Reporter (1981-1997), and grew into a substantial magazine. Together the two publications ran for nearly a half century, chronicling everything from the Law School’s sponsorship of the first-ever conference of law reviews in 1949 to a 1996 program commemorating the efforts of Law School faculty and students in overturning the wrongful death penalty conviction of Rolando Cruz. In 2012, the magazine made a comeback with a new name, Northwestern Law Reporter (2012- ) and is currently in production.

a
sweeping
range of problems falling within the
Law School's teaching and research
mission. One,
on
its face, is
extremely
practical-what responsibility to
assume for teaching trial practice?
The other is constitutional and
philosophical-how to deal with the
problem of governmental power vs.
private rights and freedoms?
To lawyers, of course, these
seemingly disparate concerns are really
interrelated. Every trial should be not

The Northwestern Law Reporter
Description
An account of the resource
The Reporter (1949-1981) began in 1949 as an eight-page newsletter created to inform alumni, friends, and colleagues of the achievements and events of Northwestern University School of Law and its community of students, faculty, and alumni. The Reporter was originally a student publication, and its founding editors were members of what was then called the Junior Bar Association (now known as the Student Bar Association). In 1981, it was succeeded by the Northwestern Reporter (1981-1997), and grew into a substantial magazine. Together the two publications ran for nearly a half century, chronicling everything from the Law School’s sponsorship of the first-ever conference of law reviews in 1949 to a 1996 program commemorating the efforts of Law School faculty and students in overturning the wrongful death penalty conviction of Rolando Cruz. In 2012, the magazine made a comeback with a new name, Northwestern Law Reporter (2012- ) and is currently in production.

The Northwestern Law Reporter
Description
An account of the resource
The Reporter (1949-1981) began in 1949 as an eight-page newsletter created to inform alumni, friends, and colleagues of the achievements and events of Northwestern University School of Law and its community of students, faculty, and alumni. The Reporter was originally a student publication, and its founding editors were members of what was then called the Junior Bar Association (now known as the Student Bar Association). In 1981, it was succeeded by the Northwestern Reporter (1981-1997), and grew into a substantial magazine. Together the two publications ran for nearly a half century, chronicling everything from the Law School’s sponsorship of the first-ever conference of law reviews in 1949 to a 1996 program commemorating the efforts of Law School faculty and students in overturning the wrongful death penalty conviction of Rolando Cruz. In 2012, the magazine made a comeback with a new name, Northwestern Law Reporter (2012- ) and is currently in production.
