J.D. or LL.B. as the Basic Law Degree? Marcus Schoenfeld* L EGAL EDUCATION IN THE United States is still evolving. In the past few decades the law schools have all but eliminated other means than law school study as preparation for the prac- tice of law. But, problems remain, especially in the area of content of the already crowded three-year day or four-year evening curricula, and in the area of graduate study. Compared to these major issues, the question of whether the first degree in law should be called an "LL.B." or a "J.D." seems trifling. Yet this is a very current question; the Special Committee on Graduate Study of the Association of American Law Schools is expected to report on this during the 1963 Annual Meeting. It is also ancient history, since "J.D.

This information may be freely used and copied for non-commercial purposes, provided that the source is acknowledged (©EURASHE). EURASHE Ravensteingalerij 27/3 1000 Brussels BELGIUM ISBN-9789081686709 This project has been funded with support from the European Commission. This publication reflects the views only of the author, and the Commission cannot be held responsible for any use which may be made of the information contained therein Foreword ‘Level 5-The Missing Link’ is an intriguing title for this new publication of EURASHE for those not versed in the qualifications terminology. It rightly points to an existing lack in the National Qualifications Frameworks, at least in some countries in the European Higher Education Area (formerly ‘Bologna’). The implementation of the two- (later three) cycle structure also had to incorporate the level that is the link between secondary and higher education, and this for reasons explained below. It is a great merit of the two researchers, Magda Kirsch and Yves Beernaert, co-authors of the report, that they have taken up the challenge of mapping a sector of (higher) education in a variety of countries, which often have just this in common, that they are among the 47 that signed the Bologna Declaration, but otherwise have such different education systems and structures that make comparisons of levels and programmes extremely difficult.
