CAMPBELL imvERsrrr SCHOOL OF LAW 1981 PLACEMEirr BCLLETUV Message from the Dean It is with special pleasure that we present the third annual Placement Bulletin of Campbell University School of Law. The Class of 1981 was the third class admitted to the School of Law, and its members made Campbell a complete law school. They, their predecessors, and the present second and first year classes are primarily responsible for the remarkable record achieved by the School of Law in its four and one-half years of existence. The School and its mission have found enthusiastic acceptance by the profession, rapidly achieving full accreditation by the North Carolina State Bar and successfully negotiating the American Bar Association approval process. The most rewarding aspect of this acceptance has been that Campbell was conceived as, and has been, a different and pioneering law school—one structured to expand the horizons of traditional legal education and to help the legal profession meet the problems and opportunities of the rest of this century. It has been our goal not only to teach well the traditional law school skills of analysis, synthesis and expression, but also to fulfill the training function of the urban law firm by providing skills training which is needed by young lawyers but is not available in most Southeastern communities. Curriculum, faculty, and institutional design have been carefully developed to achieve these ends. The required curriculum, set forth on page M, systematically progresses from an almost traditional first year through a third year program designed to provide abridge from law school to lawpractice. Campbell's educational program and approach have motivated outstanding practitioner-academicians to become part of an unusually talented and demanding faculty, profiled on pages 40 through 43. Campbell is the only private ABA-approved law school in the continental United States with a student body of less than 300 students, admitting only around 100 students per year. This small school model permits us to provide both intensive small-class first year experiences and individual instruction in third-year clinical courses. It has also allowed us to be unusually selective in the admission of our students, each of whom gained admission only after successfully completing a personal interview with the faculty. The validity of our premises has been demonstrated by recent research relating to legal education and by the experiences of our graduates and those who employ them. Our educational and faculty development programs anticipated by three years the recent report of the ABA Task Force on Lawyer Competency: The Role of the Law Schools, which recommended substantial reform in American legal education. Campbell graduates have exceeded the overall passing percentages on every bar admission examination in every state in which they have been tested, and lawyers and judges who associate with them categorize their performances as new lawyers as superior. Campbell s law students are benefiting from its demanding and innovative program; and the University, our faculty, and the legal profession have benefited from their dedicated and spirited partici­ pation in pioneering enterprises. We are confident they will continue to be a credit to Campbell and to our profession, and we invite your inquiries concerning their placement. We hope you will contact Associate Dean Broderick, me or other members of the faculty concerning your needs. Sincerely yours. F.
