HISTORY AND ORGANIZATION This will mark the forty-ninth year of operation of the University of Chicago Law School. A school of law and jurisprudence was contemplated in the original plan for the University of Chicago. The school should, according to William Rainey Harper, the first president of the University, be more than a training institution for admission to the bar. An education in law, President Harper said, "implies a scientific knowledge of law and of legal and juristic methods. These are the crystallization of ages of human progress. They cannot be understood in their entirety without a clear comprehension of the historic forces of which they are the product, and of the social environment with which they are in living con­ tact. A scientific study of law involves the related sciences of history, economics, philosophy-the whole field of man as a social being." Consequently, the law school was not to be an institution which had a merely nominal connection with the University, and it was not to be separated either by location or spirit from the University at large. It should be an organic part of the University, in close touch with the other divisions, embodying the spirit and purpose of University life and, in turn, contributing to that life. In 1902 President Harper's plan was approved by the Trustees, and the Law School was opened in October of that year. The goal of the School as stated in the first Announcements was "to afford adequate preparation for the practice of law as a profession in any jurisdiction in which the common law prevails, and to cultivate and encourage the scientific of and comparative study systematic , juris- prudence, legal history, and principles of legislation." The first Dean was Joseph Henry Beale. In 1904 Mr. Beale was succeeded by James Parker Hall, who continued as Dean until his death in, 1928. In 1929 Harry A. Bigelow, a member of the Faculty since 1904, was appointed Dean and served in that capacity until his retirement in 1939. Wilber G. Katz was the Dean of the School from 1939 until his resignation, June, 1950. He is succeeded ' as Dean by Edward H. Levi. The University of Chicago Law School has been a member of the Association of American Law Schools since the School was founded in 1902. It has been on the approved list of the American Bar Association since the standards of that as­ sociation were adopted in 192 I. • II. GENERAL STATEMENT School a The Law adopted in 1949 new program, consisting of three years of basic study leading to the Bachelor of Laws degree (LL.B.), and a fourth year of advanced and specialized work leading to the degree of Doctor of Law (J.D.). The new program is the result of experience under the four-year curriculum adopted in 1937 and incorporates the distinguishing features of that curriculum. The research program leading to the degree of Doctor ofJurisprudence (J.s.n.) continues unchanged. 4 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO The objectives of the School are to give training to law students not only as future advocates and counselors, but also as future administrators, legislators, or judges, or as men who, though their careers may lie primarily in the field of business, will have important responsibilities for the operation of the legal order.

    QUEER SACRIFICE IN MASTERPIECE CAKESHOP Jeremiah A. Ho ABSTRACT This Article interprets the Supreme Court’s decision, Masterpiece Cakeshop, Ltd. v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, as a critical extension of Derrick Bell’s interest convergence thesis into the LGBTQ movement. Chiefly, Masterpiece reveals how the Court has been more willing to accommodate gay individuals who appear more assimilated and respectable—such as those who participated in the marriage equality decisions—than LGBTQ individuals who are less “mainstream” and whose exhibited queerness appear threatening to the heteronormative status quo. When assimilated same-sex couples sought marriage in Obergefell v. Hodges, their respectable personas facilitated the alignment between their interests to marry and the Court’s interest in affirming the primacy of marriage. Masterpiece, however, demonstrates that when the litigants’ sexual identities seem less assimilated and more destabilizing to the status quo, the Court becomes much less inclined to protect them from discrimination and, in turn, reacts by reinforcing its interest to preserve the status quo—one that relies on religious freedoms to fortify heteronormativity. To push this observation further, this Article explores how such failure of interest convergence in Masterpiece extends Derrick Bell’s thesis on involuntary racial sacrifice and fortuity into the LGBTQ context—arguing that essentially Masterpiece is an example of queer sacrifice. Thus, using the appositeness of critical race thinking, this Article regards the reversal in Masterpiece as part of the contours of interest convergence, queer sacrifice, and fortuity. Such observations ultimately prompt the Article to propose specific liberationist strategies that the LBGTQ movement ought to adopt in forging ahead.
