The law school infrastructure was over ten years old. Due to rapid changes in technology and competition from other law schools, state of the art pedagogy and facilities in 1974 were, by 1988, in need of modification and updating. Bringing the library into the information age and expanding its capacity stood at the head of the agenda.

  • A Story of Highway Development in Nebraska
    A STORY OF HIGHWAY DEVELOPMENT IN NEBRASKA By George E. Koster Published by the Department of Roads Lincoln, Nebraska Revised 1997 BACKGROUND "A Story of Highway Development in Nebraska" (Revised 1997) is an updated and expanded version of "A Story of Highway Development in Nebraska" (1986), the latter being published by the Department of Roads in December of that year. The text is a compilation of information taken from a myriad of sources and leans heavily on the author's judgement and experience. And, since the entire undertaking was accomplished on a part-time basis, footnotes were omitted for simplicity of publication. In instances where the author may have used brief passages written by another, without using quotation marks or giving that person proper credit, forgiveness is requested. The purpose of the text is not for personal acievement, literary merit, or financial gain. Rather, it is for purposes of history, education, and public information about the development of highways in Nebraska. THE AUTHOR George E. "Dutch" Koster, a fourth-generation Nebraskan and former Secretary to the State Highway Commission (1972-1975), was assigned to the Project Development Division at the Department of Roads headquarters in Lincoln. He was the author of the "Research Study on Corridor Preservation" (1973), "History of the Nebraska State Highway Commission" (1974, 1986, and 1992), "A Story of Highway Development in Nebraska" (1986), "A History of the Principal Executives of the State Highway Department" (1995), and "A Story of Highway Development in Nebraska" (Revised 1997). He passed away August 29, 1999, after a lengthy illness. i CONTENTS Chapter Page Preface...................................................................................

To be confronted with a difficult problem, with a situation where you are con- vinced that substantial and natural justice is on the side of your client, a sit- uation in which you are unable to call to mind any rule laid down in the books, or any decision of any court that exactþ fits your predicament ... Dean T. J. Mahoney American enterprise, immigration, industrialization, urbanization, egali- tarian access to education, and the rise of certification in the professions com- bined with the Catholic and Jesuit mission to spiritually and economically up- lift its flock. America was an open society where the separation of church and state encouraged the church to take on educational endeavors. The founding of Creighton University and its professional schools, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centur¡ was symptomatic of a national experience that sought to channel and match American brain power to a burgeoning, apparently lim- itless, array of opportunities. Father Michael P. Dowling and Count John A. Creighton comprised a formidable educational partnership whereby the latter provided the wherewithal for the former to rcalize his plans for educational de- velopment in Omaha. Paul L. Martin, the spokesperson for the law school from 1906 to 1920, captured this perceived sense of expansion and viewed the es- 13 14 1 , FOUNDERS AND BENEFACTORS tablishment of formal legal education in law schools as a logical development following the growth of population and the consequent increase of litigation.l Prologue Although the law school dates its existence from 1904, the idea for a ]esuit sponsored law school in Omaha dates from 1892.
