HISTORICAL STATEMENT Boston College is one of the twenty-four and universities in the conducted by the . The Boston College Law School is one of the thirteen American law schools con­ ducted under the same auspices.''. The university traditions of Boston College are the product of four centuries of educational idealism and practical experience of the Society of Jesus which, since its foundation in 15 34 by Ignatius Loyola, has established and conducted institutions of higher learning in all parts of the world. Boston College owes its inception to the foresight and energy of the scholarly John McElroy, S.J., Superior of the first Jesuit com­ munity in New England. This community, still located at old Saint Mary's in Boston, was founded in 1849. In 1857, in accordance with the Society's traditional devotion to higher education, Father McElroy secured land and erected a group of collegiate buildirlgs on Harrison Avenue in Boston, the present site of the Boston College High School. He was assisted in this undertaking by a group of civic leaders headed by the Honorable Alexander H. Rice, then and later Governor of the Commonwealth. The formal opening of the College was delayed by the -Civil War, and for a time the buildings were used as a House of Studies of the Society of Jesus. Boston College was formally incorporated by an act of the Massa­ chusetts Legislature approved by Governor John A. Andrew, April 1, 1863. The charter authorized the conferring of all degrees usually conferred by universities in the Commonwealth, except medical de­ grees. This single restriction upon its university charter was removed by legislative amendment, April 1, 1908. Formal instruction was com­ menced on September 5, 18 64, under the presidency of , S.J., and the deanship of Robert Fulton, S.J. In 1913 , during the presidency of Thomas I. Gasson, S.J., the site of Boston College was transferred to the present extensive and beautiful campus at University Heights, Chestnut Hill, Newton. The buildings already erected there are uni­ versally acclaimed as outstanding monu ments of in the United States. Since the transfer to University H eights, other schools have been added, by foundation or affiliation, to the original College of Arts and Sciences. The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and the School of Business Administrati<:> n are also loca ted at University Heights. The College of Arts and Sciences lntown, the Law School, and the School of Social Work are conveniently located in downtown Boston. The College of Liberal Arts in Lenox is situated in the heart of the Berk­ shires. The School of Philosophy and Science, the School of Theology, and the Seismological Observatory are in Weston, Massachusetts. ''·These institutions will be found listed on the inside back cover.

THE BOSTON COLLEGE LAW SCHOOL In 1929, the Trustees of Boston College, with the active coopera­ tion of eminent members of the bench and bar, established the Boston College Law School. Formal instruction was commenced on September 26, 1929, and the first class was graduated June 15, 1932. With the graduation of this first class the School was officially approved by the American Bar Association through its Section on Legal Education and Admission to the Bar. In 1937, the School became a member of the Association of American Law Schools. At present the School is located in the New England Power Building, 441 Stuart Street, Boston, a few steps from Copley Square and the Boston Public Library. T he Massa­ chusetts State Library, the federal, state and municipal courts are situated but a few minutes from the School.

PURPOSE AND METHOD OF INSTRUCTION The purpose of the Boston College Law School is to prepare young men of intelligence, industry, and character for careers of pub­ lic service in the administration of justice. With this objective, students are given a rigorous training in the principles and rules, the standards and technique of the law, not as ends in themselves, but as means to the attainment of justice in al society subject to constantly changing economic and social forces. The program of instruction is designed to equip the student to practise law wherever the Anglo-American system of law prevails. Hence, there is a thorough insistence upon the com­ mon law, although special attention is given to the law of Massachu­ setts, the other New England states, and New York state. Courses in public law are emphasized in accordance with the current development of American jurisprudence. The case method of instruction, employed in all leading American law schools, has been followed from the foundation of the School. By this method the student is trained in the art of legal analysis and in the solution of legal problems by the same process of research and reasoning which he must use in his professional career. He is trained to analyze complicated facts, to discern therein the real issues of law and of fact, to discover scientifically the pertinent case and statute law, and to solve the legal problem by a logical and accurate applica­ tion of the proper legal principles. All students are required to par­ ticipate actively in the classroom discussion of cases, and are en­ couraged to confer with members of the Faculty at all times. Each first year student is assigned to a specific professor for the purpose of consultation and orientation. The importance of a rigid law school training is indicated in the following statement. LAW SCHOOL 15

CHOOSING A LAW SCHOOL The American Bar Association, through its Section on Legal Education and Admission to the Bar, has recently issued a statement for the guidance of young men who plan to study law. It is en­ titled "Choosing a Law School" and reads in part as follows:

Introduction "The choice of a good law school is the most important decision which a young man intending to enter the profession of law has to make before actually beginning the training for a legal career ... "It cannot be too strongly emphasized that students who are plan­ ning on being admitted to the bar should secure their training in an institution which is recognized by all state boards of bar examiners. Otherwise they may find themselves not qualified for admission in a state where they wish to practice. There are law schools in existence which do not measure up to the accepted standards of the profession and whose graduates are not eligible to take the bar examinations in about half of the states of the Union. These states sometimes make exceptions in favor of local schools. Students should most carefully consider the requirements of admission to the bar in other states before entering any law school which is not fully recognized.

Legal Education "Preparation for the bar has changed in character and extent dur­ ing the last third of a century even more than have the processes of general education ... Today the importance of getting the best law school training available is widely recognized ... "For the young man who has made the decision to become a lawyer or to gain admission to the bar for the sake of advancement in other fields, the question is no longer, 'How shall I get my legal train­ ing?' but rather, 'What law school shall I attend?' It is not possible to make any dogmatic answer to this query since the ap.swer must depend on various factors which will differ in different cases, such as the finances of the student, the amount and nature of his pre-legal educa­ tion, the time which he has to spend, his , and other things Academic Standards "Every student who starts to study law should do so in a school approved by the American Bar Association, not only because those schools have been certified after careful examination as giving satis­ factory training in accordance with accepted standards of the pro­ fession, but also because there are many1 states where training in un­ approved schools is not recognized by the licensing authorities . . . Although the person who begins law study may have a definite idea 16 BOSTON COLLEGE where he intends to practice, circumstances may alter thi£ intention even after he has finished his law school cow;se and he should not allow himself, by attending an unapproved school, to be put into the position of being unable to be admitted to the bar in approximately half of the states of the Union .. Pre-Legal Education "The American Bar Association has never made any recommen­ dations as to the subjects to be studied in the pre-legal course, nor has the Association of American Law Schools set out any li st of subjects. In gep.eral it will be agreed that English, history and some science are desirable ingredients of the pre-legal course. In the main, however, its purpose is to mature the mind and develop the thinking processes which are so important in every branch of law study. The pre-legal s tudent should begin the cultivation of professional standards of study as soon as possible. The pre-law requirement of completion of half of the number of hours required for a Bachelor's degree is best fulfilled for law school purposes in a college of arts and sciences and should not include courses having little or no intellectual conten t, such as phys­ ical education, military drill, home economics, m usi c, dancing, etc. Courses having to do with the law, such as business law, for example, are not considered as pre-legal courses ...

Conclusion "The student intending to begin the study of law should write to the clerk of the supreme court of the state where he expects to practice and secure a copy of the rules for admission to the bar in order that he may be sure that legal education will be s uch as to qualify him for admission in the state whe re he wishes to practice. In some cases registration with the board of bar examiners is required at the beginning of law study. Students who n eglect to comply with the rules' of admission may find themselves in difficulty when they seek to secure a l i"cense. The importance to t he intending l awyer of en­ rolling in a good law school cannot be exaggerated. T he cho ice of a school may have a vital bearing on the student's future career." NoTE Out of the one hundred and eighty law schools in the United States, one hundred and four are on the approved list of the American Bar Association. Of the one hundred and four law schools so approved, ninety two have attained to membership in the Association of Ameri­ can Law Schools. These two associations, representative of the highest idealism of the teaching and practising profession, have worked to­ gether for many years with efficiency and success in elevating the standards of legal education and practice in the United States. LAW SCHOOL 17

MORNING AND EVENING SESSION The study of law is a difficult and exacting pursuit of the gravest individual and social importance. Hence, it is the policy of the School to urge all candidates to enroll in the three-year Morning Session, which is designed for students who devote substantially all of their working time to their studies. Classes in the Morning Session arc conducted daily from Monday through Saturday. For the benefit of those who find it impossible to devote their full time to the study of law, the School conducts a four-year Evening Session, which is substantially equivalent to the Morning Session in its program of instruction, in the personnel of its faculty, and in the total number of class hours. The character of examinations and the grading standards are the same for both Morning and Evening Sessions. For the purpose of conserving the maximum time for study, classes in the Evening Session are concentrated on Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings. THE LAW LIBRARY The main Law Library, recently remodelled and enlarged, now contains more than twenty-two thousand volumes. It has been grow­ ing rapidly and, as in the past, substantial additions will be made each year. The Law Library includes several sets of Massachusetts and United States Reports, the reports of the other New England states, the reports of all other state courts of last resort up to the National Reporter System, the Illinois Appellate Courts Reports, the entire National Reporter System; the English Reports Full Reprint, the Law Reports, the All England Law Reports; and the annotated reports, such as American Decisions, American Reports, American State Re­ ports, Lawyers' Reports Annotated, American and English Annotated Cases, American Law Reports, English Ruling Cases, and the Lawyers' Edition of the United States Supreme Court Reports. The Library also contains the reports and decisions of administrative bodies, such as the Board of Tax Appeals, the Federal Communications Commission, the Interstate Commerce Commission, the Securities and Exchange Com­ mission, the National Labor Relations Board, the Public Utilities Re­ ports, and the Decisions of the Commissioner of Patents. In its section of statutory material, the Library contains the Massachusetts Statutes, the Annotated Laws of Massachusetts, the United States Statutes at Large, the United States Code Annotated, the Uniform Laws Annotated, the statutes of the New England states and a large number of other states, the Statutes at Large and the Public General Statutes of England.

THE jAMEs B. CARROLL READING RooM Additional library facilities are available to the students of the Boston College Law School through the generosity of Mrs. Mary E. Carroll of Springfield, who donated to the School the entire personal law library of her late husband, Associate Justice James B. Carroll of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts. This large collection, valuable for its content and its memories, is now shelved in a special room adjoining the main Law Library and designated as the James B. Carroll Reading Room. A ·large oil painting of the late Mr. Justice Carroll is enshrined in the midst of the books which he used so skill­ fully and devotedly during his seventeen years on the supreme judicial tribunal of Massachusetts. The James B. Carroll Reading Room is open to students daily except Sunday. During the past year the Library was augmented through the generosity of the following: Mr. John M. Barry, Mr. Dunbar F. Car­ penter, Mr. John P. Connaughton, Mr. Joseph Joyce Donahue, Mr. Henry E. Foley, Mr. David J. Kelley, Mr. Harold W. Sullivan, Mr. Richard S. Teeling, and Miss Margaret J. Maher.

THE LAW CLUBS Faculty Advisor ______Assoc. Prof. O'Leary An important supplement to the formal academic instruction is provided by the Law Clubs and the Bostonia Competition. The pur­ pose of the law clubs is to give the student practical instruction and experience in the analysis of legal problems, the use of law books, and the preparation and presentation of cases before an appellate court. Membership is voluntary but all students are urged to participate in the law club work because of the valuable training and experience derived therefrom. 20 BOSTON COLLEGE

Students taking part in such work are divided into small groups comprising the various law clubs, and are assigned cases for prepara­ tion and argumentation throughout the year. In these arguments the clubs oppose one another, and the cases are heard and decided by practising attorneys who serve as Law Club Instructors. THE BosTONIA CoMPETITION The assignment of cases to the various law clubs is part of a competitive scheme which, by a process of elimination, culminates in the final argument of the Bostonia Competition. The final argument each year is conducted in public before a court comprised of Justices of State and Federal courts. The final argument of the scholastic year 1939-1940 was conducted on May 16, 1940. The case was heard and decided by the Honorable James J. Ronan, Associate Justice of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, the Honorable Francis ]. W. Ford, Judge of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, and the Honorable Francis J. Good, Associate Justice of the Superior Court of Massachusetts. The winning club was the Marshall Law Club represented by John F. Cremens, '41 and William ]. Sullivan, '42, opposed by the Taney Law Club represented by Robert T. Capeless, '41 and John J. Sullivan, Jr., '41. A prize of two hundred dollars, contributed by the President of Boston College and the Honorable John E. Swift, Associate Justice of the Superior Court of Massachusetts, was awarded to the Marshall Law Club. THE NISI PRIUS· CLUB Faculty Advisor ______Professor Moynihan The Nisi Prius Club further supplements formal classroom in­ struction by providing a forum for discussion of the law in action. Bi-monthly meetings are conducted at which addresses are delivered by members of the judiciary, administrative officials, and practising attorneys. An open discussion period follows each address. Special attention is devoted to the practise and procedure of courts and ad­ ministrative agencies. Membership in the Club is open to students of all classes. The officers of the Club for the academic year 1940-1941 are: Francis G. Stapleton '41, President; John F. Graney '42, Vice-Pres­ ident; James S. Fitzpatrick '43, Treasurer ; Thomas M. Finucane '43, Secretary. THE STUDENT COUNCIL Faculty Advisor ______Dean Kenealy The Student Council affords a ready means of contact between the student body, the alumni, and the Faculty of the Law School. It provides an opportunity for consultation with the Faculty on all matters affecting the interests and welfare of the student body. Its membership is determined partly by academic standing and partly by election, being composed of the highest ranking students in each class together with the presidents thereof. LAW SCH OOL 21
