The Storm Before The Calm, A. Spooner

Law Quadrangle (formerly Law Quad Notes)

Self-discipline. It gets some people up at 5 a.m. every day to train for a marathon. It gets others through three grueling years of law school. And it keeps Jonah Eaton, '11, battling collapsed roofs and molten lead gone awry in order to finish what he started.

A Place In The World, Katie Vloet, John Masson, Jenny Whalen, Randy H. Milogrom

Law Quadrangle (formerly Law Quad Notes)

One illustration of Michigan Law's global strength in recent years has been the prevalence of graduates on the highest courts of their countries of origin. Programs such as the Geneva Externships and Bates Fellowships have trained students and recent graduates how to practice law in other countries. Courses and clinics at the Law School have allowed for the development and refinement of tools such as a blood-filtering device that saves the lives of new mothers in Ghana.

Read more about those stories in the pages that follow, which, collectively, serve as a snapshot of Michigan Law's place in the World.

Life In Legal Purgatory, Katie Vloet

Victor Caminata was convicted of arson. The Michigan Innocence Clinic and its experts say he didn't commit arson-in fact, that the fire in question wasn't arson at all, and that Caminata was convicted based on junk science. The Clinic's attorneys won him a new trial, so now, he awaits his fate once more.

Ready For The Real World, Mary Jean Babic

Law Quadrangle (formerly Law Quad Notes)

For many alumni who practice law in public-interest fields, the real-world experience they gained in law school was critical to their paths. Whether opening their eyes to opportunities they hadn't considered previously, or reaffirming the passions that drove them to law school in the first place, the clinics, externships, and fellowships they participated in link directly to the careers they enjoy today.

Phi Delta Phi, the oldest of the three international law fraternities, was founded at Michigan in 1869. But the house at 502 E. Madison wasn't built until 1914. (It was then, and remains, the only "Phid" chapter with its own residence.)
