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 an integral
part of the University from its foundation.

The aim of the Department of Law has been, from earliest days, to maintain
a high standard as a requirement for graduation—the degree being conferred
only upon such students as have satisfactorily completed the prescribed
course of study according to traditionally rigid standards. This
policy has been uniformly 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 economic conditions and to meet the increasing
demands of the profession.

The Law School is a member of the Association of American Law Schools;
is registered by the Regents of the University of the State of New York as
meeting the requirements for admission to the bar in that State; and is on the
approved list of the American Bar Association.

Standards of the American Bar Association.—As an approved law school
on the list of the American Bar Association, this law school complies with
the official request of that Association that approved law schools include in
their Annual Bulletins a copy of the following standards:

"Standards of the American Bar Association."

(1) "The American Bar Association is of the opinion that every candidate
for admission to the Bar should give evidence of graduation from a
school complying with the following standards:

(a) "It shall require as a condition of admission at least two years of
study in a college.

(b) "It shall require its students to pursue a course of three years duration
if they devote substantially all of their working time to their studies, and
a longer time, equivalent in the number of working hours, if they devote only
part of their working time to their studies.

(c) "It shall provide an adequate library available for the use of the
students.


5

Page 5

(d) "It shall have among its teachers a sufficient number giving their
entire time to the school to ensure actual personal acquaintance and influence
with the whole student body.

(e) "It shall not be operated as a commercial enterprise and the compensation
of any officer or member of its teaching staff shall not depend on
the number of students or on the fees received.

(2) "The American Bar Association is of the opinion that graduation
from a law school should not confer the right of admission to the Bar, and
that every candidate should be subjected to an examination by public authority
to determine his fitness.

(3) "The Council on Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar is
directed to publish from time to time the names of those law schools which
comply with the above standards and of those which do not and to make
such publications available so far as possible to intending law students.

"In compliance with the policy announced by the American Bar Association
in 1921, we recommend the establishment in each state, where none
now exist, of opportunities for a collegiate training, free or at moderate cost,
so that all deserving young men and young women seeking admission to
the Bar may obtain an adequate preliminary education; and, that the several
states be urged, through the Council on Legal Education and Admissions
to the Bar, to provide, at stated times and places, for pre-legal examinations
to be held by the university of the state or by the board of law examiners
thereof, for those applicants for admission to the Bar obliged to make up
their preliminary qualifications outside of accredited institutions of learning."

For further information, address Section of Legal Education and Admissions
to the Bar, American Bar Association, 1140 North Dearborn St.,
Chicago, Ill. A pamphlet is available upon request, containing the various
Rulings of the Council upon the foregoing Resolutions of the Association,
and a revised list of Approved Law Schools.

Law School Building.—The Law School occupied from 1911 to 1932 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. But due to increased numbers, both in the
teaching force and in student enrollment, the Law School in recent years
found these quarters too limited for its purposes. This situation was relieved
at the opening of the session of 1932-33, when the Law School occupied
its new and commodious quarters, Clark Memorial Hall, which was
formally presented and dedicated on October 5, 1932. It occupies the elevated
site in rear of the dormitories known as D and E on Dawson's Row,
now demolished.

The Law School is indebted for the new building to the generosity of
William Andrews Clark, Jr., of Los Angeles, California, a graduate of the
Law School of 1899. The gift is a memorial to his late wife, Mabel Foster
Clark, for whom the building is named. It is a modern fireproof structure,
with liberal and handsome provision for all the needs and conveniences of a
modern law school.

Law Library.—The Library contains more than twenty-seven thousand
volumes. Its financial resources, from appropriations by the Visitors, and
from special endowments, make possible substantial additions annually. The
Library contains the English Reports, practically complete, from and including
the Year Books to date; the Canadian and Australian Reports; the
United States Supreme Court Reports; reports of all the American States
in official or unofficial form; the National Reporter System, complete; selected
and annotated reports, together with modern searchbooks in the form of
general Digests, and the leading Encyclopedias, besides a large collection of
textbooks, and bound volumes of law journals. Practically all the current
American legal periodicals are received, and bound volumes of these are on
the shelves.

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 November to June, inclusive. The Review is
now in its twentieth volume. From its inception it has maintained a high
standard of excellence, and a worthy rank among the leading law journals
of the country. Adequate quarters are provided for the accommodation of
the editorial board and the business staff.

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 registration.

The session is divided into Three Terms. The first terms ends December
21; the second, March 24; 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 student may register, as a candidate for the degree, for the
work of the first term after October 15, nor for that of the second term
after January 10—nor is registration in absentia permissible.

When Students May Enter.—It is highly desirable that students of any
year, and particularly those of the first year, should enter upon the study of
law at the beginning of the session. Where this was impossible, it was
formerly the practice of the Law School to permit students to register at the
beginning of the second term, in January, but not later, save in exceptional


7

Page 7
cases. This practice was then feasible, since new courses were begun at
that time. With the session of 1931-1932, however, a number of indivisible
courses, some in each year, were extended over two or more terms. It is,
therefore, no longer possible for candidates for the degree to enter at the
beginning of the later term. In exceptional cases, qualified students who seek
special courses, and who are not candidates for the degree, may be permitted
to enter after the end of the first term.

Fees and Expenses.—The necessary expenses of a student in the Law
School may be estimated at $700 per session of nine months. This minimum
estimate includes all University and tuition fees, board, lodging, laundry
and books. An average estimate would be $900 to $1,000 per session, reckoning
living expenses at a somewhat higher figure. The University fee applicable
to all law students (including those from Virginia) is $60; and the
tuition fee for residents of Virginia is $175, for non-residents, $195; an
athletic fee of $15 applies to all students. The total fees, therefore, for
Virginia students are $250, and for non-Virginians $270.

Payment of Fees.—Fees are payable one-third upon registration; one-third
at the opening of the second term; and the remainder at the opening
of the third term. Failure to make satisfactory arrangements therefor with
the Bursar will lead to suspension of all University privileges. (See Regulation
2, post page 15.)

Registration as Virginia Student.—In order to be considered a Virginia
student, it is necessary that the applicant's parents be domiciled in the State
if he be under twenty-one years of age; or if he has attained his majority,
that he himself be domiciled in the State; and that either his parents or the
applicant for admission shall have been bona fide taxpayers in the State of
Virginia for at least two years prior to said application.

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.—Each professor has full liberty to adopt his own
method of teaching. In a great majority of the courses instruction is by
the case method, oral discussion in the class-room of cases contained in
standard case-books.

The daily oral quiz has long been a marked and, as experience has proved,
a 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 procedural courses and in Legal Bibliography
and Brief Making, special stress is laid upon practical work. In the course
on Legal Bibliography and Brief Making, an intimate acquaintance with law
books and skill in their use are secured by lectures and demonstrations during
the first term of the first year, accompanied by the assignment of practical


8

Page 8
work in the library, on which numerous oral and written tests are held;
and in the third year briefs on assigned topics and according to rigorous
standards are required. Much practical work is done in the headnoting of
cases on scientific principles.

The Law Clubs.—There are usually six or more Law Clubs functioning
actively in the life of the Law School.

Membership in the Law Clubs is optional but students are strongly advised
to participate in this work as it affords training in the use of the
library, in the preparation of briefs, and in the presentation of oral argument.

Required for Graduation.—The degree of Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) is
conferred upon such students as have satisfied the entrance requirements;
have attended three full sessions of the Law School; have successfully passed
the required examinations, with satisfactory performance of assigned practical
work, and have maintained a satisfactory record for ethical conceptions
and honorable conduct such as should characterize a prospective member
of the legal profession.

More specifically, the candidate for graduation must have completed all
the obligatory courses (see Outline of Courses, infra), and elective courses,
aggregating at least 21 term-hours.

A term-hour represents one lecture period per week throughout one of
the three terms into which the session is divided.

Degree with Final Honors.—A student who is without substantial deficiency
in the work of the first two years may, when registering for his third
year, seek to qualify for the award of the degree with Final Honors upon
the conditions set forth on page 18, infra.

ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS

Suggestions as to Preliminary Education.—Prospective law 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 candidates 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 all law teachers is that the standing and progress of
law students may, in general, be measured by their academic preparation.
Moreover, sound academic training tends to develop and to refine the ethical
sense so necessary to an honorable career at the bar. It is this consideration
that has been, in large measure, the motive of the Association of American
Law Schools, and of the national and State bar associations of America, to
stress, as these have been doing for some years, the need of a higher educational


9

Page 9
standard for students proposing to enter upon the study of the law.
Students are therefore urged not to begin their legal studies before completion
of an academic course approximating that required for a baccalaureate
degree. So high a standard, however, is not as yet exacted as a condition of
entrance into the Law School. These conditions are snown in the following
sections.

1. Regular Students.—Candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Laws
must have attained the age of nineteen years (counting to the nearest birthday)
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:

Entrance Credits.—In addition to the completion of an approved high
school course of four years, or its equivalent, the candidate must present
evidence that for two years at least he has pursued, as a resident, in a
standard college, courses acceptable toward a baccalaureate degree, of which
he must have successfully completed at least 30 session-hours, or 60 semester-hours.

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 from the institution in which the work was done, without further
pursuit of that course.

Applications for Admission.—Applications for admission must be submitted
upon forms which will be supplied by the Dean of the Law School.
Such applications, with satisfactory evidence of the required entrance
credits, should be filed in the Dean's office not later than September 1.

An applicant for admission from outside Virginia may be required to
supplement his application by an interview with representatives of the University.

Any applicant whose pre-law college record is not considered satisfactory
by the Committee on Admissions, from the standpoint of scholarship, may
be denied admission, or admitted only on Probation, even though such applicant
has completed the entrance credits required.

Courses Not Acceptable for Admission.—A candidate shall present at
least 30 session-hours (or 60 semester-hours, or their equivalent) of college
work, taken in a school approved by standard regional accrediting agencies,
and exclusive of credit earned in non-theory courses in Military Science,
Hygiene, Domestic Arts, Physical Education, Vocal or Instrumental Music,
or other courses without intellectual content of substantial value. This requirement
conforms to the rules of the Association of American Law Schools.

Recommended Pre-Law Courses.—The following subjects are recommended
as desirable pre-law courses: English, Latin, a Modern Foreign
Language, History, a Natural Science, Mathematics, Political Science, Accounting,
Economics, Psychology, Philosophy, and Public Speaking.


10

Page 10

Evidence of the Required High School and College Work.—Evidence of
the required entrance credits must be in the form of a certificate, properly
authenticated by the Registrar or other authorized official of the institution
at which the college work was done. Such certificate must indicate, in addition
to the high school units offered for admission, the college courses completed,
the grades received, the time devoted to each course, and the credit,
in session- or semester-hours, at which each such course is valued toward a
baccalaureate degree.

No Conditioned Students.—Candidates for admission who have not completed
the required 30 session-hours will not be admitted with the privilege
of making up the deficiency.

No Advanced Standing.—No advanced standing or other credit is given
for attendance at another law school, nor for time spent in private reading.
The candidate for graduation must spend three years in residence, pursue
all required courses in the curriculum, and pass all regular examinations
therein.[2]

Admission of Women.—With the beginning of the session of 1920-1921,
women were admitted to the Law School for the first time. The conditions
of their admissions are the same as in the case of male applicants.

2. Special Students.—A limited number of applicants who are at least 23
years old and who present proper evidence of good character and of needful
maturity and training, though unable to fulfil the foregoing entrance
requirements, may, by special action of the Law Faculty, and only in exceptional
cases, be admitted as special students, and not as candidates for the
degree.[3]

The applicant for admission as a special student is required to make
written application to the Dean of the Law School, 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, with a statement of reasons why he was unable to qualify as
a regular student. Such application, together with such testimonials as may
be required, must be filed with the Dean not later than September 1 of the
year in which the applicant desires to enter.

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.

 
[2]

After considerable experimentation with the prevailing custom of giving credit for
work done in other law schools, this rule was adopted in 1904. From the beginning the
practical results were so satisfactory that it has become a firmly established policy of the
Law School. The rule does not rest on an assumed superiority of curriculum or methods,
but on the practical impossibility of dovetailing the parts of two differently arranged
curricula. It also avoids certain evils usually accompanying the advanced standing privilege.
For an account of the origin of the privilege of advanced standing, and the undesirable
results, reference is made to Bulletin Number Fifteen (1921, p. 168) of The Carnegie
Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.

[3]

The limitation of the number of special students admitted conforms to the recommendation
of the American Bar Association.

Under the terms of the donation the award is made at the close of
each session to the law student who is a candidate for graduation the following
year, and whose scholarship, character, personality, activities in the
affairs of the Law School, and promise of efficiency, have, in the opinion
of the Law Faculty, entitled him to special recognition above his fellows.

THE WILLIAM H. WHITE LECTURE FOUNDATION

This Foundation was established in 1922 by Mrs. Emma Gray White,
widow, Mrs. Emma Gray Trigg, daughter, and W. H. Landon White and
William H. White, Jr., sons, of the late William H. White, a distinguished
alumnus and for many years a Visitor of the University. The conditions
require that the income be used in securing each session the delivery before
the Law School of a series of lectures, preferably not less than three in
number, by a jurist or publicist, especially distinguished in some branch of
jurisprudence, domestic, international, or foreign; and that the lecturer present
some fresh or unfamiliar aspect of his subject. Each series of lectures shall
possess such unity that they may be published in book form; and the copyright
thereof shall vest in the Foundation.

OUTLINE OF COURSES

The table of courses and lecture schedule, as outlined on the following
pages, contemplate an average of about fifteen lecture periods (of one hour
each) per week. In view of contemplated changes, no attempt is here made
to outline the courses for 1934-1935. The courses and schedules are those
offered in 1933-1934.

Written examinations are held at the close of each term.

GENERAL REGULATIONS

1. Registration Generally.—Students are required to register in advance
at the office of (1) The Dean of the Law School; (2) The Bursar; and (3)
The University Registrar, for every course taken. Registration is not complete
until fees have been paid or proper arrangement for payment made
with the Bursar.

2. Suspension for Non-payment of Fees.—A student who is in default
in the payment of fees and has so remained for fifteen days will be suspended,
and deprived of all privileges of the Law School, until his financial relations
with the University have been arranged satisfactorily with the Bursar.

3. Delayed Registration.—Students are not permitted to delay registration
through carelessness or for inadequate reasons. Any student, new or
old, who fails without good cause, to present himself for registration during
the first three days of the session, and between the hours of nine A. M. and
one-thirty P. M. on the first week-day after the Christmas Recess, will be
charged a special registration fee of five dollars.

4. Minimum for Which Students May Register.—No student, without
special permission, and for good cause, may register for less than a full
year's work as scheduled.

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

6. Late Entrance into Classes.—No credit is given for the completion
of any course upon which the student has entered after 50 per cent. of the
lectures thereon in any term have been delivered. See requirements for
Graduation, ante, p. 8.

7. Courses Extending Through More Than One Term of the Session.

a. Real Property I and Real Property II are so far regarded as separate
courses that one may be passed, and credited, and the other failed. They are
so far regarded as a single course that both may be absolved by attaining,
in the same session, grades which average the passing grade.

b. All other courses extending through more than one term will be
credited only in their entirety, each as a single course. Regular examinations
will be held, however, at the end of each term during which such a course
is given, and will be reported to the Dean's Office, for disciplinary purposes,
but the final grade for the entire course will be based upon the several
term examinations, with the usual adjustments for attendance, written exercises
and recitations. The last examination in such a course may cover the
entire subject.

8. First-Year Students.—Failure on the part of any first-year student,
without just cause, to attain, for the first term, an average examination grade
of 80 per cent. will place such student on probation (see Regulation 11) for
the remainder of the session, and the student and his parent or guardian
will be so notified. Unless marked improvement in the character of his


16

Page 16
work is indicated at the end of the second term, his resignation may be
required.

9. Carrying Over Uncompleted Work from the First Year.—Subject to
regulations below, students who have been found deficient in two or more
courses prescribed for the first year may be re-admitted on probation (see
Regulation 11). Where the Law Faculty deems the deficiency serious
enough the student must repeat the lectures in the courses in which he is
deficient. No optional attendance is permissible in such cases, and only such
a limited amount of new work may be taken as will not conflict with the
previously incomplete work.

10. Carrying Over Uncompleted Work from the Second Year.—A
candidate for the degree who has proved deficient in one or more subjects
required in the second year must repeat such courses without privileges in
optional attendance, or otherwise, and may be on probation in any term
during which he is repeating a second-year course.

11. Probation.—Students on probation are not entitled to leaves of absence
except for imperative cause, nor are they permitted to become members
or officials of athletic, musical, debating or other student organizations
which publicly represent the University. Any student on probation may be
required to resign unless his work indicates a marked improvement.

12. Conditions of Readmission.—A student who, without satisfactory
cause, has not attained for the session, on his examinations, credit for
courses comprising in the aggregate at least 325 lecture periods, will be
excluded from the Law School the following session, but may be permitted
to return, on conditions, the next session thereafter.

In this connection, attention is called to Regulation 9 foregoing.

13. 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.

14. Optional Attendance.—A student who has attended the required
lectures on any subject, required in the first year, but has failed on the
examination, may, with the approval of the Dean, secure optional attendance
on such subject the following session, to the extent necessitated by actual
conflict in schedule with the regular courses of the second year, but subject
to Regulation 9.

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

16. General Requirements.—Students of the Law School are required
to attend all regular exercises of the classes of which they are members,
and to perform all the work assigned, including quizzes and examinations,
unless excused for good cause.


17

Page 17

17. Absence from Lectures.—A careful record is kept of the absences
from lectures and omission of prescribed work. Such absences, unexcused,
render the student liable to be disciplined and detract from his class or
examination grade.

A student who has been absent for any cause from more than one-third
of the scheduled number of lectures in any course shall, prima facie, automatically
be denied the privilege of standing the examination in such course.
Under special circumstances, and upon special petition, the Law Faculty may
permit such a student to stand the examination in such course.

18. "Dean's List."—An average examination grade of 90 per cent. for
the first two years will entitle the student to a place on the "Dean's List,"
which carries with it special privileges with respect to absences from lectures.
The privilege will not exempt students from required practical work, nor
from review quizzes. The Dean may revoke the privilege if abused.

19. Extra-Curriculum Activities—Reports to the Dean.—Students of the
Law School who propose to become members or officials of athletic, musical,
debating or other student organizations which publicly represent the University,
or who propose to devote a material portion of their time to work
outside the Law School, are required to report their names and proposed
activities at the Dean's office for official approval. In no case will such approval
be given to a student on probation.

20. Law Students Taking College Courses.—A Law Student, under
special circumstances, with the permission of the Dean, may register in the
College of Arts and Sciences for a course not exceeding three hours a week.

21. Special Examinations. (Subject to Regulation 24 below.)—No special
examinations are granted, save in case 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.

22. Re-Examinations.—No re-examinations are granted, except under
conditions stated in Regulations 14 and 23.

23. Third-Year Students—Incomplete Work.—A candidate for the degree
who at the end of his third year is found deficient in one or more subjects,
may return the following session and, without further attendance upon lectures,
stand the regular examinations on such of his uncompleted subjects as the
Dean and the professor or professors in charge may approve. 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. In exceptional cases and
for good cause this privilege may be extended to the student of any year.
See Regulation 14.

24. The Same.—Students in the category mentioned in the foregoing
regulation who return for a regular examination as mentioned, and who reside
250 miles from the University, may be granted the privilege of standing


18

Page 18
one or more special examinations in incompleted courses scheduled for a
later term. The purpose of this provision is to avoid the expense of several
return trips.

25. Examinations in absentia.—Students entitled to one or more examinations
under Regulation 23, and who reside more than 300 miles from the
University, may, in the discretion of the Dean and of the professor or professors
in charge, be allowed the privilege of standing such examination or
examinations in absentia under approved supervision.

26. Examination Fees.—The fee for standing such examinations as are
mentioned in the last three preceding regulations 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, are
required to 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,
under Regulation 21.

27. Elective Courses Required for Degree.—In addition to the satisfactory
completion of all required work a candidate for the degree must offer
credits of not less than 21 term-hours to be chosen by the student from the
elective courses offered in the third year.

Choice of Elective Courses.—Each applicant for a degree must upon his
matriculation sheet specifically designate those elective courses which the
candidate proposes to take in order to absolve the requirements under Regulation
27 (twenty-one term hours of elective courses) and under Regulation
29, if applicable (thirty-one term hours). Such designation when definitely
made shall be final, and the candidate must pass the courses so elected in
order to obtain the degree. Grades in elective courses, as in obligatory
courses in the third year, will not be announced until after the publication
of the degree list in June. No addition nor substitution of elective courses
after choice is definitely made will be permitted except upon the approval of
the Dean's Office, for good cause shown.

28. Application for Degree.—Candidates for graduation are required to
file a written application with the Dean, not later than November 15 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.

29. Graduation with Final Honors.—A candidate who is without substantial
deficiency in the work of the first two years may apply (See Regulation
28) for the award of the degree with Final Honors, by offering credits
for elective courses totaling at least 10 term-hours, in addition to the 21
terms-hours of elective courses mentioned in Regulation 27.

The degree of Bachelor of Laws with Final Honors may be conferred
upon any applicant who has completed all the prerequisite work, with an
average grade of at least 90 per cent. on the courses offered in his third


19

Page 19
year, but subject to such special oral or written examinations as the Law
Faculty may prescribe in respect to each such application.

30. 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 menace to the good order of the
Law School.

31. Honor System.—All written tests and examinations are conducted
under the Honor System.
