In 1919 the College moved from Sorin Hail to Hoynes Hall, named in honor of Col. William J. Hoynes, now Dean Emeritus, whose life-long labors laid the foundation for the present gron-th of the College. Thomas F. Konop, an alumnus of the U. of Nebraska, a member of Congress from 1911 to 1917, a mem­ ber of the Industrial Commission of Wisconsin from 1917 until 1922, was called to Notre Dame as Dean of the College in 1923. Mr. Konop was for­ merly a law partner in Green Bay, Wis., of John Diener, '09, now mayor of Green Bay.

The College of Law sponsors the publication of the Notre Dame Liuv- ycr, published monthly and treating problems and cun-ent events of inter­ est to students of law, but outside the curriculum. An active Law Club, general organization for law students, and the "Eleven" clubs, groups of eleven freshmen lawyers, promote extra-curricular development among the students. The faculty of the College of Law numbers eleven. Dean Konop, Profs. Clarence Manion, A.M., Ph.JL, J.D.; James F. Kirby, A.M., J.D.; Elton Riehter, A.M., J.D.; Aaron Hugue- • nard, LL.B.; L. 0.

The success of the Notre Dame Col­ lege of Law is adequately evident in the success of the gi-aduates of the College. The alumni have been uni­ formly and outstandingly successful in the bar examinations of practically all of the states of the Union, and it is difficult to name a city in which there are not one or more prominent Notre Dame attorneys.
