The Faculty Of Law, University Of British Columbia, 1970-1981, A. J. Mcclean

Dalhousie Law Journal

The period from 1957 to 1970 was from any perspective a period of rapid expansion and development in Canadian legal education. The years from 1970 until 1981 were by contrast a time of consolidation. In part that flowed almost naturally from the hectic pace of the 1960s; in part it flowed from financial restraints which became increasingly stringent in the latter half of the decade.' Not surprisingly the experience of the Faculty of Law at the University of British Columbia reflects, in varying degrees, the national pattern.
