On July 1, 1985, Paul R. Verkuil, '61, became the 25th President of the College of William and Mary. Two months later, Timothy J. Sullivan, '66, assumed the position of Dean of the Marshall-Wythe School of Law. As Verkuil pointed out in a recent interview, his return to William and Mary comes on the eve of the 25th an- niversary of his graduation from the College, where he was an English liter- ature major, president of his fraternity, president of the Interfraternity Coun- cil, and a member of the Scabbard and Blade, the honorary society of the ROTC. Verkuil's journey of almost 25 years back to his alma mater as President first took him into the Army for a three-year tour at Fort Lee, Virginia, and then to law school at the University of Virginia, where he served as editor of the Vir- ginia Law Review, was an honor stu- dent, and a recipient of the DuPont Scholarship. After graduating in 1967, Verkuil re- turned to his home city of New York to practice law for three years, during which time he received an LL.M. in trade regulation from New York Uni- versity, an M.A. in political science and economics from the New School of So- Photo by C.

Corcoran during a congressional hearing on the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. “I do not believe you should kill them. I do believe you should regulate them–not because I have any social philosophy in regard to the subject–but because as a sheer matter of economic wisdom they should be regulated.” Speaking not long after the Dow Jones Industrial Average had fallen 89 percent and joblessness reached 25 percent, Corcoran charged that unregulated financial markets “have cost many millions of dollars; they have cost 12,000,000 men their jobs.” With the lawyer for the New York Stock Exchange glowering nearby, he defended the bill’s grant of sweeping power to federal administrators.

  • Virginia Historical Society the CENTER for VIRGINIA HISTORY
    Virginia Historical Society THE CENTER FOR VIRGINIA HISTORY ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2004 ANNUAL MEETING, 23 APRIL 2005 Annual Report for 2004 Introduction Charles F. Bryan, Jr. President and Chief Executive Officer he most notable public event of 2004 for the Virginia Historical Society was undoubtedly the groundbreaking ceremony on the first of TJuly for our building expansion. On that festive afternoon, we ushered in the latest chapter of growth and development for the VHS. By turning over a few shovelsful of earth, we began a construction project that will add much-needed programming, exhibition, and storage space to our Richmond headquarters. It was a grand occasion and a delight to see such a large crowd of friends and members come out to participate. The representative individuals who donned hard hats and wielded silver shovels for the formal ritual of begin- ning construction stood in for so many others who made the event possible. Indeed, if the groundbreaking was the most important public event of the year, it represented the culmination of a vast investment behind the scenes in forward thinking, planning, and financial commitment by members, staff, trustees, and friends. That effort will bear fruit in 2006 in a magnifi- cent new facility. To make it all happen, we directed much of our energy in 2004 to the 175th Anniversary Campaign–Home for History in order to reach the ambitious goal of $55 million. That effort is on track—and for that we can be grateful—but much work remains to be done. Moreover, we also need to continue to devote resources and talent to sustain the ongoing programs and activities of the VHS.

    I944-] OBITUARIES 123 the Class of 1877. Immediately after the death of each member Dr. Allen would bring into my office in the Harvard University Archives the neatly finished docket of the man's correspondence and a formal obituary. It was always with a pleasant word, and never with bitterness or resentment at the ravages of time, that he handed his friends' papers to the University's Charon. After a short sickness Dr. Allen died in Brookline on July 12, 1944. He is survived by a niece, Mrs. Francis P. Coffin, of Schenectady. C. K. S. JOHN STEWART BRYAN John Stewart Bryan, Virginia newspaper publisher and former president of the College of William and Mary, died at Richmond, Virginia, October 16, 1944. He was born at Brook Hill in Henrico County, October 23, 1871, the son of Joseph and Isobel Lamont (Stewart) Bryan. His father, during the War, was one of Mosby's famous raiders and inculcated his son with the Confederate tradition. His boy- hood was spent at Brook Hill and at Laburnum, the estate near Richmond where his father built a home in 1885. After a school education in Richmond and Alexandria, he attended the University of Virginia where he received the degree of A.M. in 1893. He then entered Harvard Law School, to acquire his LL.B. in 1897. Although he studied to become a lawyer, Mr. Bryan soon developed other interests. In 1900 he became associated with his father in publishing the Richmond Times-Dispatch, and in 1908, upon his father's death, he was chosen publisher of the paper.

As an advo- cate and as ajudge, those qualities were perhaps most often reflected in his responses to the struggles of African Americans in the context of de jure segregation in the South.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Nationally, approximately 40% of new attorneys work at firms consisting of more than 50 lawyers. Therefore, a large percentage of practicing attorneys work for small firms (fewer than 50 attorneys). Small firms generally do not have formalized recruiting procedures or a set “hiring season” when they recruit summer law clerks, school-year law clerks, or entry-level attorneys. Instead, these firms hire on an as-needed basis, and they hire year round. To secure employment with a small firm, students and lawyers alike need to be proactive in getting their name and interests out in the community. Applicants should not only apply directly to these firms, but they should connect via law school, community, and bar association activities. In this directory, you will find state-by-state hyperlinks to regional directories, bar associations, newspapers, and job banks that can be used to jump-start a small firm search.
