It was established in 1847, 13 years after the University of which it is a vital part. From its founding, Tulane has offered its students the opportunity to study both of the world’s great legal systems–the common law system upon which English and US law is based, and the civil law system governing most of the rest of the world. Located on the main campus of Tulane University in uptown New Orleans, Tulane Law School has been accredited by the American Bar Association since May 1925. The J.D. student body comprises 750 students from throughout the US, with just 15% from the state of Louisiana. At least 45 states are represented in the student body, as are close to 200 undergraduate schools. An additional 40 students are enrolled in Tulane Law School’s LLM and SJD programs. Approximately 47% of the student body is female and about 20% are students of color. Among the things that set Tulane Law School apart are the breadth and depth of its curriculum. Its curricular strengths include international and comparative law, maritime law, and environmental law. It offers six certificates of specialization in: European Legal Studies, International & Comparative Law, Civil Law, Maritime Law, Environmental Law, and Sports Law.

  • January 6, 2004
    January 6, 2004 Baton Rouge, Louisiana SENATE RACE WON’T BE THAT CROWDED Following the intense interest in the recent gubernatorial election, the general assumption has been that there will be a number of major candidates vying to fill the U. S. Senate seat being vacated this fall by long time incumbent John Breaux. Not so! When qualification time comes around, you can count the number of major candidates on one hand. Numerous newspaper columns have touted several unsuccessful gubernatorial candidates as sure qualifiers. The columns point to the 1996 race when Mary Landrieu bounced back from a gubernatorial loss and captured the seat from several other statewide elected officials. But there was one factor that wasn’t there in the ’96 race; the presence of any members of congress. Invariably, a Louisiana congressman has a “leg up” on the competition. A congressman has the inside track to Washington PAC money. Go back to 1986 when democratic congressman John Breaux won a close victory over republican congressman Henson Moore. Both Congressman served in Washington for years, and had developed close relationships within their respective party structures as well as national PAC’s that financed more that two-thirds of both candidates’ campaigns. The same will be true in 2004. Congressman David Vitter from Jefferson parish has been focusing in the race for the past year. He has approximately one and a half million dollars in his congressional campaign fund that can be used in a U.S. Senate race. On the democratic side, Congressman Chris John from southwest Louisiana has some one million dollars in his congressional account.
