1. HISTORY AND ORGANIZATION

The first University of Chicago originated in a gift of land by Senator Stephen A. Douglas in 1856. Instruction was begun in 1858 and nearly five thousand students attended the preparatory, college, and law courses of the institution before it was forced to close in 1886 following financial difficulties during a period marked by the Chicago fire and financial THE LA W SCHOOL 3

panics. A new university, first conceived of as a Baptist college, was in­ corporated on September 10, 1890, as the result of efforts of a group headed by Thomas Wakefield Goodspeed and Frederick Taylor Gates which was successful in persuading John Davison Rockefeller to found an educational institution in Chicago. Professor William Rainey Harper of Yale University became the first president of the University of Chicago, July 1, 1891, and instruction was begun October 1, 1892. A school of law and jurisprudence was contemplated in President Harper's original plan for the University of Chicago. The school should, he stated, be far more than a training institution for admission to the bar. An education in law, President Harper said, "implies a scientific knowl­ edge of law and of legal and juristic methods. These are the crystalliza­ tion 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 contact. 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 was not to be sepa­ rated either by location or spirit from the University at large. It should be, the President felt, 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 first Dean was Professor Joseph Henry Beale of Harvard University, who had been granted a leave of absence for two years to inaugurate the School. In 1904, Professor Beale was succeeded by James Parker Hall, who continued as Dean until his death in 192R. In 1929, Harry Augustus Bigelow, a member of the Faculty since 1904, became Dean of the School. 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 en­ courage the scientific study of systematic and comparative jurisprudence, legal history, and principles of legislation." The original program was one of three years preceded by at least three years of collegiate training.

* 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 association were adopted in 1921. They provide that all persons admitted to the Bar shall have graduated from a law school that requires of its students (I) at least two years of college preparation as a prerequisite for admission to the School, and (2) at least three academic years of study be­ fore obtaining its degree. Such a law school must also have an adequate library and a sufficient number of full-time teachers to give adequate personal contact with the student body, and it shall not be operated as a commercial enterprise. 4 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO

The curriculum included one year of prelegal studies composed largely of history, economics, logic, political theory, ethics, and sociology, and the three-year course of professional study leading to the degrees of Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Philosophy and Doctor of Laws. Adminis­ trative, comparative, and international law were included in the pro­ fessional curriculum.

II. OBJECTIVES AND PROGRAM OF INSTRUCTION

The curriculum of the Law School is designed not only to prepare stu­ dents for professional activities as advocates and counselors on legal matters, but also to prepare them for judicial, legislative, and adminis­ trative positions. The program is based upon a belief that the more important problems confronting lawyers, judges, and legislators are basically economic and social, and that broad training is essential to equip law-school graduates to cope with them. To this end the program of the School is planned to give the student a comprehension of and pro­ ficiency in the technical and traditional legal subjects and to integrate these studies with subjects such as accounting, economics, history, philosophy, political science, psychology, and sociology. The study of legal history, jurisprudence, and comparative law is introduced as con­ tributing to this integration. The School offers the three following programs: 1. A Four-Year Program leading to the degrees of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) and Doctor of Law (J.D.). 2. A Three-Year Program leading to the degree of Doctor of Law (J.D.). 3. A program for research in law leading to the degree of Doctor of Jurisprudence (J.S.D.).

III. ADMISSION AND REGISTRATION

The enrolment of the School is limited. Students are accepted only at the beginning of the Autumn Quarter. Applications for admission must be made well in advance of October 1 upon a form obtained from the office of the Dean of the Law School. Each application must be accompanied by an official transcript of the applicant's college record. Applicants may be asked to have an interview with a member of the Faculty or an alum­ nus of the School. Students register in the office of the Dean during the registration THE LA W SCHOOL 5

period of each quarter. A student whose work is unsatisfactory will not be permitted to continue in the School.

IV. REQUIREMENTS FOR DEGREES

THE FOUR-YEAR PROGRAM

The Four-Year Program is designed for students who have: 1. Satisfied the requirements of the College of the University of Chi­ cago: or 2. Graduated from approved junior colleges; or 3. Completed at least two years of acceptable college work in an insti­ tution accredited to the University of Chicago.

Instruction is afforded by classroom discussion of selected cases and materials, supplemented by lectures and tutorial guidance in individual researches. Because the work of each year is treated as a unit and with varying but interrelated aspects, all of which should be considered in determining the problems arising therefrom, the traditional course exami­ nations are not given. Progress of the student is determined by compre­ hensive examinations given annually and by the results of individual papers prepared by him. The degree of Bachelor of Arts (A.B.) is awarded to students of the Four-Year Program who have continued in residence for two years and have demonstrated by their standing in the annual examinations and other written work a mastery of the fields included in the first two years of the program. The degree of Doctor of Law (J.D.) is awarded to four­ year students holding the Bachelor of Arts degree who have been in resi­ dence for two additional years, and have demonstrated by their standing in the annual examinations and by their individual investigations and reports a mastery of the basic fields and of two of the fields of specializa­ tion in the third and fourth years. The degree of Doctor of Law (J.D.) cum laude is awarded to candidates who have satisfied the requirements with distinction.

THE THREE-YEAR PROGRAM

The Three-Year Program is designed for students who are holders of the degree of Bachelor of Arts or an equivalent degree awarded by the University of Chicago or by an institution accredited to the University of Chicago. The methods of instruction and of examination are the same 6 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO as those described above. Details of the program and requirements for the degree are given on page 12. The degree of Doctor of Law (J.D.) is awarded to students of the Three-Year Program who have been in residence for three years and have demonstrated by their standing in the annual examinations of the three years and by their individual investigations and reports a mastery of the basic fields and of two of the fields of specialization. The degree of Doctor of Law (J.D.) cum laude is awarded to candi­ dates who have satisfied the requirements with distinction.

THE RESEARCH PROGRAM

The research program is designed for students who, in the opinion of the Faculty, are qualified to do research on advanced problems in law. The degree of Doctor of Jurisprudence (J.S.J?) is awarded to research students who have been in residence at the School for at least one year, pursued such studies as the Faculty has prescribed, and submitted a printed dissertation which has been accepted by the Faculty as a credit­ able contribution to legal science.

FOURTH-YEAR COURSES

(Not to be offered until the academic year 1940-41)

510. Economic Organizationv+One-half of the student's time in the fourth year will be devoted to this subject. It is proposed that the study open with a general considera­ tion of a possible program of economic policy based upon freedom of enterprise and com­ petition. The introductory study of such a program is to furnish a general framework in the light of which the existing law and alternative developments may be considered. In the first half-year the emphasis will be upon the problem of relative prices and wages and the following subdivisions of the course will be pursued concurrently: Law of Monopoly and Price Control.-Primarily a study of some applications of the Sherman and Clayton Anti-trust Acts. Labor Law.-Legal status of unions and of typical self-help activities; organization and collective bargaining under state and national labor relations acts; wages and hours legislation. In the second half-year the emphasis will be upon the problem of the general level of prices and employment and possible. controls.

Problems of Finance and Failure.-Selected legal problems bearing upon business fluctuations and efforts to reduce their severity or ameliorate their effects: types THE LA W SCHOOL 9

of mercantile finance paper and security devices; corporate capital structures; "debtor relief"; legal priorities in reorganization and the control of reorganization procedure. To promote consideration of the relation between the various subdivisions of the course, additional weekly meetings will be held throughout the year for informal dis­ cussion of questions with the instructors taking part in the course. Work in Fields of Specialization.-Students will devote approximately one-half of

their time in the fourth year to work in the fields of specialization outlined below . ..

WORK IN FIELDS OF SPECIALIZATION

As noted above, in the third year approximately one-fifth of the work, and in the fourth year approximately one-half, is to be done in elected fields through individual or seminar work or in specialized courses. Students will normally be required to con­ centrate this work in two of the general fields listed below and to divide it substantially equally between the two fields. In the third year, this work will be done in the Winter Quarter and will occupy about four-sevenths of the student's time during that quarter, the equivalent of two courses of four class hours a week. The units of work available in the respective fields in the Winter Quarter of the academic year 1939-40 are listed below with numbers between 400 and 499. Students may suggest individual research projects in substitution for part of this work, subject to the requirements stated be­ low in the case of certain of the fields. Work on such projects may be arranged so as to constitute compliance with requirements in both of the student's fields. The outline of work for the fourth year (units numbered 500 to 599) is tentative. Announcement of the third-year seminars and courses listed below is also subject to changes which may be occasioned by the number of students electing the respective fields.

Group meetings will be held for reports and discussion, in an effort to develop opinion on the extent to which various systems of pleading and of evidence may be suited to various methods of factual determination, and on the extent to which the various methods of determination may be suited to vari­ ous types of factual issues. 566. Appellate Practice.-The review of decisions on questions of fact and of law by judicial and administrative bodies.

The semi-English basement con­ tains seminar rooms, a clubroom, and individual student lockers. Class­ rooms and the office of the Dean are on the first floor, and the library stackroom and Faculty offices are on the second floor. On the third floor is the reading-room, one hundred and sixty feet long and fifty feet wide, with 16 THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO desk accommodations for more than four hundred students. A bridge con­ nects the reading-room with Harper Memorial Library, the general Uni­ versity Library. The Law Library, containing more than 100,000 volumes, has substan­ tially all reported decisions of the courts of the United Stat_es and of Eng­ land, Canada, and the other parts of the British Empire, together with the periodicals, digests, encyclopedias, and sets of classified and annotated reports of these jurisdictions. The Library also receives the briefs and records of the Supreme Court of the United States, and the decisions of many of the state and federal administrative boards, reports and opinions of attorney-generals, and bar association proceedings. Statutes and ses­ sion laws of the states of the United States and of the British Empire complete the extensive Anglo-American law materials. The Library also contains similar materials covering Roman law and the law of Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Holland, Italy, Mexico, Spain, and Switzerland. The reading-room contains duplicate sets of reports of decisions of federal, state, and English courts, various editions of the statutes and digests, and the most necessary reference materials in as many additional copies as are needed.

Students in the Law School have easy access to the University Libraries, which con­ tain more than 1,250,000 volumes as well as 5,000 current periodical pub­ lications. The Law Library has two special funds at its disposal to supplement general library appropriations. These are the James Nelson Raymond Memorial Fund, established in 1929 by Anna L. Raymond as a memorial to her husband, James Nelson Raymond, an eminent businessman of Chicago; and the Wallace Heckman Memorial Fund, established in 1929 by Mrs. Wallace Heckman as a memorial to her husband, Wallace Heck­ man, Business Manager of the University from 1903 to 1924.
