School and Alumni Notes YALE LAW JOURNAL SCHOOL AND ALUMNI NOTES The following editorial from the Yale Daily News of May 8th is reprinted here in its entirety as being the best method of placing before the students and alumni of the Law School the present policy of the News with respect to the graduate departments of the Uni- versity: "In order to strengthen its policy of representing the entire University, the News has established an advisory board of graduate school students. This board will consist of five men, one from each of the graduate departments. Meetings will be held at regular intervals, when by discussing matters relating to each department, a community of interest may be attained. These men will occasion- ally attend meetings of the News Board and by talking over the different phases of University life in these joint meetings it is hoped that a closer relationship may come to exist between the graduate and undergraduate departments. Hours for meeting the heelers will be arranged. The members selected are all representative men and are in close touch with the life and conditions in their own depart- ments. Thus much more news than has been brought in by the heelers from the graduate schools will be obtained. The method of perpetuating the graduate board is as yet undecided, but the choice of their successors will undoubtedly rest largely with the retiring members. Most men in the graduate schools are there to study, and repre- sentation on the News Board for such men by the process now in vogue is quite impossible-hence the method adopted. The graduate advisory board is composed of the following men, and we feel con- fident that they will co-operate with us in making the News the mouth-piece of the University at large: K. S. Latourette-Graduate School. W. V. Griffin-Law School. P. Titus-Medical School. A. Leopold-Forestry School. T. B. Lathrop-Divinity School."

RESOLUTIONS The Class of I9IO of the Yale Law School have learned with deep sorrow of the death of their honored classmate, Tateh Clarence Chen. He came to the Yale Law School in September, 19o7, and by his kindly and courteous ways won and merited the esteem of all. His work here was faithful and of high order. His courage in coming so far for his legal education testifies to his worth and character. Keenly conscious of their loss the Class hereby resolves that minutes be adopted to give expression to their sorrow: That a copy of these resolutions be sent to his family in China, and that they be printed in Yale News, the YALE LAW JOURNAL, the Yale Alumni Weekly, and the New Haven papers; And it is further resolved that the Class, as such, attend the removal of his body from New Haven and provide a suitable floral tribute.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Other Publications by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@NYLS. 690 Law and History Review, Fall 2006 simply the result of editorial choices made for the second edition. For example, Employment Division v. Smith, the 1990 case that wrenched the free exercise clause back to its Reynolds v. United States roots, is inexplicably omitted, as is the Religious Freedom Restoration Act and the Religious Land Use and Institutional- ized Persons Act, the federal laws spawned by Smith that have triggered important litigation concerning the scope of Congress's power to enforce the substance of the Fourteenth Amendment. To be sure, the essence of these developments can be gleaned from other entries, but one wonders about the wisdom of the editorial choice inherent in these omissions. It is easy to be a critic, but as Theodore Roosevelt put it, the credit belongs to the man in the arena. Much credit, then, goes to the editors of and contributors to the Oxford Companion to the Supreme Court of the United States. This encyclopedia endures as a valuable reference tool that will continue to be of aid to everyone interested in the work of the Supreme Court.

  • LAW and the HUNDRED-YEAR LIFE† Anne Alstott*
    LAW AND THE HUNDRED-YEAR LIFE† Anne Alstott* I want to begin with a fact. A fact that stunned me when I heard it, and a fact that motivates this lecture. Here it is: “the majority of children born in rich countries today can expect to live to more than 100.” Put another way, more than 50% of babies born in the United States today will be alive one hundred years from now.1 This isn’t a fringe statistic. It’s not from the National Enquirer. It’s a statistical proJection from social scientists at Berkeley and the Max Planck Anne Alstott is the Jacquin D. Bierman Professor in Taxation at Yale Law School. An expert in taxation and social policy, she was named a professor at Yale Law School in 1997 and orig- inally named the Jacquin D. Bierman Professor of Taxation in 2004. She served as deputy dean in 2002 and 2004 and has won the Yale Law Women teaching award three times. From 2008 to 2011, she was the Manley O. Hudson Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. Prior to coming to Yale, she taught at Columbia Law and before that, served as an attorney-advisor in the Treasury Department’s Office of Tax Legislative Counsel. Her books include; NO EXIT: WHAT PARENTS OWE CHILDREN AND WHAT SOCIETY OWES PARENTS (Oxford University Press, 2004); THE STAKEHOLDER SOCIETY (with Bruce Ackerman, Yale University Press, 1999); and TAXATION IN SIX CONCEPTS: A STUDENT’S GUIDE (CCH, 2015).

  • Interdisciplinary Study 1 Interdisciplinary Study
    Interdisciplinary Study 1 Interdisciplinary Study Interdisciplinary study may be undertaken by YDS students in two ways: by pursuing, concurrent with an M.Div. or M.A.R. degree from YDS, a program leading to a joint degree, granted by Yale or another university; or by taking courses in other Yale schools or departments to be credited to a single YDS degree. Joint-Degree Programs YDS encourages its students to pursue concurrent degree programs that lead to the receipt of more than one degree when such programs constitute a coherent and well-defined preparation for ministry. Students may work simultaneously toward a YDS degree and a degree in certain other Yale schools or other approved graduate programs. (See following list of approved joint-degree programs.) Additionally, students may earn joint degrees in partnership with two outside institutions: the schools of social work of the University of Connecticut and Yeshiva University. In most cases, the period of study required to complete two degrees is less (usually by one year) than would be required to complete those degrees if they were pursued independently. Applicants are encouraged to consult an admissions officer to determine whether the reduced period of study applies to the specific program(s) of interest to the applicant. The administrative officers of the schools concerned arrange assessment of tuition and other fees. Students interested in pursuing one of the joint degrees should consult with each school prior to matriculating at either school. In all cases where concurrent degrees are sought, admission to the school must be obtained through the normal admissions processes established by each school.

  • Joint Degrees
    JOINT DEGREES Yale Law School PRINTED AUGUST 2015 JOINT DEGREES Yale Law School Yale Law School encourages its students to take an interdisciplinary approach to the law. The Law School allows students who wish to acquire specialized skills or a body of knowledge related to law to apply for a joint degree in their area of interest. Joint degrees are most common with the Graduate School and with other professional schools at Yale, although joint degrees may be arranged with programs at other universities. Application for and Joint Degree Credit JOINT DEGREES Approval of Joint Degrees The Law School grants up to one term of Applicants interested in pursuing a joint degree credit for appropriate work in another degree should apply to the Law School and the other program.
