To turn the pages of this slim booklet is to begin to know some of the most distinguished legal scholars in the world. Among these 92 members of the Michigan Law faculty arc leaders in constitutional, international, tax, environmental, and business law, and in many other areas of scholarship, as well. For students hoping to build a world-class legal education, there is no better foundation.

But these printed pages exist in only two dimensions, whde legal education, like the real world, exists in three. Stepping inside the magnificent buildings of the University of Michigan

Law Quad brings these photographs and stories to life. Two-dimensional biographies become three-dimensional professors. Here, beneath the vaulted ceilings of Hutchins Hall, an inter­ nationally renowned intellectual property expert who testified before Congress yesterday will exchange views on Internet file sharing with a passing student. Here, professors with experi­ ence hard-won as ach-isers to presidents or advocates before the Supreme Court now turn their remarkable minds to preparing members of our extraordinary and diverse student body for a life in the law.

It's the heart of a l\lichigan Law education. Welcome.
