Historical.—Among the original Schools contemplated in Mr. Jefferson's
plan for the organization of the University of Virginia was "Law: Municipal
and Foreign; Embracing the General Principles, Theory and Practice of
Jurisprudence, together with the Theory and Principles of Constitutional Government."
Accordingly the School of Law was established in 1826, and has
been in continuous operation since.

From the establishment of the Law School until 1894, the course comprised
the work of a single year. With the session of 1894-1895, a two
years' course was inaugurated, which continued up to the session of 19091910,
when the course was extended to three years.

The aim of the Department of Law has always been to maintain a high
standard as a requirement for graduation—the degree being conferred only
upon such students as are thorough masters of the prescribed course of
study. This policy has been rigorously enforced, and its wisdom has been
vindicated by the high position which the graduates of the Law School are
accustomed to attain at the bar and in public life. The course of instruction
has been extended from time to time to conform to changing conditions and
to meet the increasing needs of the profession.

Minor Hall.—The Law School is accommodated in its own building, designated
as Minor Hall, in honor of the late John B. Minor, whose distinguished
service of fifty years as a professor in the Law School, the
University thus commemorates. The building is located between Dawson's
Row and the southern end of West Range. The architecture is on
classic lines, in keeping with the general design of the other university
buildings. It contains on the first floor four large lecture halls, with convenient
offices, lavatories, etc., and on the second floor a stack room with
ample space for books, two commodious reading rooms, and a number of
offices for the use of the librarian and the teaching staff.

Law Library.—The Library contains about fifteen thousand volumes.
Its financial resources, from appropriations by the Visitors, and from income
from special endowments, make possible the addition of several
hundred volumes annually. The Library contains the English Reports,
practically complete, from and including the Year Books to date; the
United States Supreme Court Reports; reports of all the American States;
the National Reporter System, complete; selected and annotated reports,
together with modern search-books in the form of general Digests (including
the Century and Decennial editions), and the leading Encyclopedias,
besides a large collection of textbooks, bound volumes of law
magazines, etc. Law students have all the privileges of the general University
Library, containing more than ninety thousand volumes.

The Library is the beneficiary of two special endowments of ten thousand
dollars each,—one the gift of William W. Fuller, Esq. ('78), and the
other of Farrell Dabney Minor, Esq. ('83) and Mrs. Minor, in memory
of their son, the late Lieutenant Farrell Dabney Minor, Jr. ('11), who died
in France (1918) from wounds received in battle.

The Virginia Law Review.—Under the title of The Virginia Law Review,
the undergraduate students of the Law School conduct a law journal
devoted to the discussion of general questions of American jurisprudence.
Eight numbers are issued annually, from October to May inclusive. The
Review is now in its seventh volume. From its inception it has maintained a
high standard of excellence, and a worthy rank among the leading law
journals of the country.

ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS.

Suggestions as to Preliminary Education.—Students, and their parents
or guardians, are admonished that the law is peculiarly an intellectual profession,
and for its successful prosecution, whether in a law school or in the
broader fields of professional life, demands a well-trained mind. If it be
true that untrained recruits, in rare instances, under diligent and persistent
effort, develop into successful practitioners after entrance upon the practice,
such exceptional cases but serve to illustrate the rule that out of a
given number of young men entering upon the study of law, those with
sound preliminary training will have incomparably the advantage, while
those without such training are likely never to rise above mediocrity in
their profession.

The experience of the Law Faculty—indeed, of all law teachers—is, that
the standing and progress of law students may, in general, be measured by
their academic preparation. Young gentlemen are therefore advised not to
begin their legal studies until they have completed an academic course approximating
that required for a baccalaureate degree. So high a
standard, however, is not exacted as a condition of entrance into the Law
School. These conditions are shown in the following sections.

1. Regular Students.[2] —Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of laws must
have attained the age of at least eighteen years before entering the department,
must produce a certificate of good character from the school or college
last attended, or from other satisfactory source, and must conform to
the general requirements following:

For Admission to the Deparment of Law,[3] in addition to the completion
of an approved high school course of four years, or its equivalent, the
candidate must present evidence that he has pursued at least one year, of
fifteen session-hours, of standard college work, of which he must have successfully
completed at least twelve session-hours, distributed among three
or more courses, one of which must be in English,[4] and exclusive of courses
in Art, Music, Commercial Law, Education, Physical or Military Training,
and Public Speaking.

A session-hour is one hour a week of recitation, or two hours a week
of laboratory work, throughout the college year.

Credit will be given for completed courses only. A completed course
is one for which the student is entitled to final credit toward a baccalaureate
degree.

In addition to the required course in English, it is deemed avisable that

in preparation for entering the Law School the student select his courses
from among the following subjects: Latin, French or Spanish, History, a
Natural Science, Mathematics, Government, Accounting, and for students
of more than average maturity Economics, Logic and Ethics.

Forensic Debating.—As indicated in the preceding regulation, Forensic
Debating is excluded from the category of courses accepted in fulfillment
of entrance requirements. This course, however, as one of the
required subjects in the regular curriculum of the Law School, may be
substituted by the completion of an equivalent course in the College of
this university, or other institution of collegiate rank, evidenced by proper
certificate. But the student is advised to defer the pursuit of this course
until entrance into the Law School.

The High School Subjects for Admission to the College, and their
values in units are indicated in the General Catalogue of the University,
in connection with that department.

Evidence of the Required High School and College Work must be in
the form of a certificate, properly authenticated by the Registrar or other
authorized official of the institution at which the work was done.

2. Special Students.—An applicant who is at least 23 years old, and who
presents proper evidence of good character, and of needful maturity and
training, though unable to fulfill the foregoing entrance requirements, may,
by special action of the Law Faculty, in exceptional cases, be admitted as a
special student, and not as a candidate for the degree.

Every applicant for admission as a special student is required to make written
application to the Dean of the University, on a blank furnished for the purpose,
with detailed information as to his age, general habits, his educational
and business experience, and his general fitness to undertake the study of
law. Such application, together with such testimonials as may be required,
should be filed with the Dean of the University not later than September 1
of the year in which the applicant desires to enter the Law School.

Every such applicant for admission as a special student must (if required)
pass a satisfactory examination, to be held at the University during the registration
days of the session. The examination, which will be conducted by a
committee of the Law Faculty, may include the subjects of English, American
and English History, and Civil Government.

This regulation is subject to the general university regulation as to delayed
entrance examinations.

Special students who fail to complete 60 per cent of the work taken during
any session may be declared ineligible for readmission the following
session.

Admission of Women—Entrance Requirements.—With the beginning of
the session 1920-21, women were admitted to the Law School for the first
time. The conditions of their admission as Special Students are the same
as in the case of male applicants.

The required qualifications for women who desire to enter as Regular
Students, and candidates for graduation, are as follows: The applicant
must be more than 20 years of age, must have completed an approved
high school course of four years, or its equivalent, and, in addition, must
(1) hold a baccalaureate degree from a standard college; or (2) failing
such degree, must be 22 years of age at nearest birthday, and must present
evidence of the completion of two years of standard college work, comprising
courses aggregating 30 session-hours (60 semester hours). Evidence
of the fulfillment of these requirements must be by properly authenticated
certificates as in the case of male applicants. Blank forms of
applications and of required certificates will be supplied by the Registrar.

Admission to Advanced Standing.—No credit is given, in any case, for attendance
at another law school, nor for time spent in private reading.[5] The
candidate for graduation must spend three years in residence.

GENERAL INFORMATION.

The Session begins on the Thursday preceding the nineteenth of September,
and continues for thirty-nine weeks, ending about June 15. The first
three days of the session are given to registration, and all students, both old and
new, are required during that time to place their names upon the books of the
University and the rolls of their respective classes. Lecture courses begin on the
Monday following, and absences will be recorded against any student not
present from the opening lecture of each course. Students entering after the
first three days, without satisfactory excuse, will be charged a fee for reigstration.

The session is divided into Three Terms. The first term ends December
23; the second, March 21; and the third, with the close of the session.

Late Entrance.—Students are advised that late entrance upon the
work of any term is a serious hindrance to progress. The student who
enters late must begin his work at the point to which the several courses
have advanced at the time of his entrance; and credit for three years' attendance
cannot be secured unless the student is in actual residence at
least thirty weeks per session. No registration in absentia is permissible.

When Students May Enter.—It is highly desirable that students
of any year, and particularly those entering the work of the first
year, should enter at the beginning of the year's work which they propose
to pursue. Where this is impossible students may register at the beginning
of the second term, but not later, save in exceptional cases. In case
of such late entrance the student's chief handicap (often a serious one) will be
lack of familiarity with preceding courses, on some of which his own work may
be based. Entrance at the beginning of the later term, therefore, is not advised,
but only permitted. Where the student has thus entered in a later

term, he may not make up the work of the earlier term except by returning
for such portion of a fourth year as is covered by the term omitted.

Expenses.—The necessary expenses of a student in the Department of
Law may be estimated at $455 per session of nine months. This minimum
estimate includes all university and tuition fees, board, lodging, washing and
books. An average estimate would be $600 per session, reckoning board,
lodging, and washing at a somewhat higher figure. The university fee applicable
to all law students (including those from Virginia) is $40; and the
tuition fee is $135 for the regular work of each session.

Three Years' Course.—The course of study embraces three years of
thirty-seven weeks each, exclusive of holidays. Residence for three years, with
attendance of at least thirty weeks a year, exclusive of holidays, is essential
to graduation.

Plan of Instruction.—The instruction is as thorough as possible, and is
given mainly through textbooks and lectures, supplemented in some of
the courses by the study of cases. While convinced of the value of the
combined textbook and lecture system, which has prevailed for more than
half a century in the Law School, the Law Faculty have long appreciated
the value that the study of cases possesses, in illustrating the practical
application of legal principles. The present organization of the Law
School gives opportunity for more emphasis on this form of instruction,
and the case-book is now used more extensively than heretofore—not as
supplanting, but as supplementing, textbooks and lectures.

The daily oral quiz has long been a marked and, as experience has
proved, a most valuable feature of the system of instruction. This oral
quiz is supplemented by frequent written tests, the results of which are
carefully recorded, and, in the professor's discretion, are considered in
estimating the final grade of the student.

Practical Work.—In the courses on Equity Procedure, Virginia Pleading,
Practice at Law, Code Pleading, Criminal Procedure, Forensic Debating,
and Legal Bibliography and Brief Making, special stress is laid
upon practical work. In the Pleading and Procedure courses, every student
is required to draw, and submit for correction and criticism,
the principal pleadings, orders, decrees, and other forms encountered in
actual litigation. In the course on Legal Bibliography and Brief Making,
an intimate acquaintance with law books and skill in their use are secured
by oral and written quizzes, and finally by practical tests; and briefs
on assigned topics are required to be prepared according to rigorous
standards. Much practical work is done in the headnoting of cases, on
scientific principles.

Required for Graduation.—The degree of Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) is
conferred upon such students as have attained the age of twenty-one years;
have satisfied the entrance requirements; have attended three full sessions

of the Law School; and have successfully passed the required examinations,
with satisfactory performance of assigned practical work.

More specifically, the candidate for graduation must have completed all
of the obligatory courses (see Outline of Courses, below), and at least two
elective courses, one of which must be Virginia Pleading or Code Pleading.

OUTLINE OF COURSES.

The schedule, as outlined below, contemplates an average of ten lecture
periods (or fifteen hours) per week.

Written examinations are held during the final week of each term, on
the subjects completed during the term. See Schedule of Examinations,
page 14.

The Charles Minor Blackford Prize in the Department of Law was established
through the liberality of Mrs. Susan Colston Blackford, of Lynchburg,
Va., in memory of her husband, the late Charles Minor Blackford, a
distinguished alumnus of the Law School. The prize consists of fifty dollars
in cash, and is awarded each year to a student in the Department of Law for
the best essay on some legal or sociological subject.

GENERAL REGULATIONS.

1. Registration of New Students.—Before registration in the Law
School, students who have not before been registered in any department of
the University must produce to the Dean of the Law School (office in Minor
Hall) a certificate from the Dean of the University that entrance requirements
have been fulfilled.

2. Registration Generally.—Students must register in advance at the
office of the Dean of the Law School and with the Registrar for every course
taken, and no credit will be given for work done in any course without proper
registration therefor.

3. Delayed Registration.—Students are not permitted to delay their
registration through carelessness or for inadequate reasons. Any student, new
or old, who fails to present himself for registration during the first three
days of the session, and between the hours of nine a. m. and two p. m. on the
first week-day after the Christmas Recess, will be charged a special
registration fee of five dollars.

4. Exchange or Omission of Courses.—After registration no course
may be exchanged or omitted except on the written approval of the professor
in charge and of the Dean.

5. Carrying Over Uncompleted Work.—Students who are deficient in
the work of one year will be permitted to take but a limited amount of the
work of the succeeding year.

6. Minimum for Which Student Must Register.—No student, without
special permission, and for good cause, may register for less than nine periods
per week.

7. Advanced Work.—Students of one year are not permitted to anticipate
the courses of a subsequent year, without urgent reasons satisfactory to
the Dean.

8. Late Entrance into Classes.—No credit is given for the completion
of any course upon which the student has entered after fifty per centum of
the lectures thereon have been delivered. See Requirements for Graduation,
ante, p. 8.

9. Optional Attendance.—A student who has failed on an examination
but who has attended the required lectures on the subject may, on
written application, with the endorsed approval of the professor in charge,
and of the Dean, secure optional attendance on such subject the following
session, but subject to Regulation 5. Re-examinations are not granted
in any other form.

10. General Requirements.—Every student of the Law School is required
to attend all regular exercises of the classes of which he is a member,
and to perform all the work assigned, including quizzes and examinations,
unless excused for good cause.

11. Invalids.—Students whose condition of health is too precarious to
permit regular attendance upon lectures, but not serious enough to admit
them as patients of the hospital, will be required to withdraw from the University
until able to resume their regular work.

12. Conditions of Readmission.—Any student who, without satisfactory
cause, has not attained for the session, on his examinations, credit for courses
comprising in the aggregate at least 150 lecture periods, or, in lieu thereof,
a grade of 75 per cent on courses aggregating 200 periods, will be excluded
from the Law School the following session.

In this connection, attention is called to Regulation 5 foregoing.

13. First-Year Students.—Failure on the part of any first-year student,
without just cause, to attain, for the first term, an average grade of 75 per
cent on the daily written quizzes, will place such student on probation
for the remainder of the session, and the student and his parent or guardian
will be so notified. Unless, in the opinion of the Law Faculty, a decided improvement

in the character of such student's work is indicated at the end of
the second term, he will be required to withdraw from the Law School.

14. Absence from the University is permitted on the written leave of
the Dean of the Law School. But leaves of absence for the purpose of accompanying
the athletic teams or musical clubs on excursions will not be
granted, except to the officers and members of the organizations. Nor, except
for good cause, may leaves be granted in anticipation or extension of
holidays.

15. Absence from Lectures may be excused by the professors for sickness
or other providential cause. Such excuses must be rendered promptly.
Unexcused absences from lectures render the student liable to be disciplined.

16. Special Examinations.—No special examinations are granted, save
in cases of sickness on the day of examination (attested by physician's certificate),
or for other imperative cause approved by the Law Faculty. In no
case will such examination be granted unless prompt application be made
therefor.

17. Third-Year Students—Incomplete Work.—Candidates for the degree,
who have failed on one or more subjects during their third year, may
return the following session, and stand the regular examinations on such
subjects, without further attendance upon lectures. But this privilege may
be exercised but once—that is to say, after a second failure the candidate
must take the lectures over again, on the subject or subjects on which he
has for a second time proved deficient. See Regulation 9.

18. Examination Fees.—The fee for standing such examinations as are
mentioned in the preceding regulation is $5 for each examination taken. Students
who, under such circumstances, return for further lectures, and who
have paid full matriculation and tuition fees for three years, pay a matriculation
fee in proportion to the amount of work taken plus $5 for each course.

There is no charge for special examinations granted for imperative cause.

19. Application for Degree.—Candidates for graduation are required
to file a written application with the Dean, not later than November 15th of
their third year, indicating the courses completed, together with a schedule
of the courses to be pursued during their final year. Blanks for this purpose
will be supplied at the Dean's office.

20. Required Withdrawal.—The right is reserved to require the withdrawal
of any student who, in the opinion of the faculty, is not profiting nor
likely to profit by the instruction offered; or whose neglect or irregular performance
of required duties, after admonition, indicates indifference or contumacy;
or whose character or habits are a menance to the good order of
the Law School.

21. Honor System.—All examinations are conducted under the Honor
System.
