Facility | Scholarships | Clinics | Faculty Support | Law Library The present law building, which opened nearly 30 years ago, no longer meets the needs of the School of Law. A new facility will provide more and better classroom space, including classrooms designed to encourage active learning by law students and to accommodate the increasing use of technology both by faculty and students. A new assortment of classroom sizes also will enable the School of Law to offer the number of small and medium-sized classes necessary to improve the learning experience of its students. The new facility will be designed with an eye for strengthening the law school as a place that will increase community interaction both among students and between students and faculty. No less important, the proposed law building will be designed to enhance clinical experiences for students and host the kinds of conferences for lawyers, judges and legal scholars now routinely hosted by the School of Law. The new facility, though slightly larger than the current law building, is not intended to increase the number of students the law school enrolls every year. Instead, the new facility will focus on giving more value to the students who are enrolled. And finally, the new building will be one of classic design, comparable to that of the Lyceum, intended to enhance the attractiveness of an already beautiful campus. An important corollary benefit of a new law school building will be to make the present facility available as a general classroom building to accommodate the enormous growth in the university’s general student body during the past decade.
