THE LAW SCHOOL
The Trustees of Boston College, with the active support and coop eration of many eminent members of the bench and bar in Massachusetts, established the Boston College Law School in 1929. Formal instruction was commenced on September 26, 1929, and the first clas•s was graduated on June 15, 1932. In 1954, on the Twenty-fifth Anniversary of i~s founda tion, the Law School moved from downtown Boston to Thomas More Hall on the Chestnut Hill ':ampus. z Ill AccREDITATION oF LAw ScHOOL Ill Ill Ill T·he Boston College Law School is a member of the Association of <( American Law School and has been approved by the Section on Legal .... 2. 0 Education of the American Bar Association since 19 3 0 % u LocATION Ill The Law School, located on the main campus of the university, ~ <( combines the advantages of ul'ban and suburban locale.

BoARD OF STUDENT ADVISERS The Board of Student Advisers consists of upperclassmen chosen on the bases of academic achievement and demonstrated interest in law school programs. The Board is both an honor and a service organization which chooses its own officers, makes its own opera·ting rules and determines the means for carrying out its duties. Responsibilities of the Board of Student Advisers include: ( 1) Participation with the Student Bar Association in a program of orientation a·nd consultation for first year students; ( 2) Conducting the Wendell F. Grimes Moot Court Competition, and ( 3) Assistance of the Teaching Fellows, who conduct the Legal Re search and Writing course, by acting as advisors to f ci rst-year students in their writing projects and moot court program. WENDELL F. GRIMEs CoMPETITioN The Wendell F. Grimes Competition, named for the late professor who was for many years moderator of the moot court program, is the intrasc.hool moot court competition. ·A trial court decis·ion in a hy.pothetical case is the subject of appeal. Teams of two participants prepare appellate briefs for each side of the case and orally argue before an "appellate court" in the McLaughlin Memorial Courtroom. Both briefs and oral presentations are evaluated to determine winners in each round of the ·competition. Finalists are awarded trophies and the winners' names are engraved on a permanent trophy. Faculty members, practicing attorneys and judges from state and federal courts serve as judges in successive rounds of the competition. Participation in moot court requires the kinds of •resea•rch, preparation, advocacy and legal skills sought by firms, government agencies and courts in filling positions for law graduates.
NATIONAL MooT CouRT CoMPETITION Each year a team of three students from Boston College represents the law school in the National Moot Court Competition sponsored by the Young Lawyers' Committee of the Bar Association of the City of New York. Some 100 of the nation's law schools participate in the Competition which was inaugurated in 19 50 to help develop the level of appellate advocacy among law students. For purposes of the National Competition; the country is divided into fifteen regions. In each region elimination rounds of argument are held among the participating schools in the region. The winners of regional rounds advance to the final .rounds which are held in New York City in December. The winner of the f.inal round is the national champion.
