The Law School And The State, William W. Cook Jun 1928

The Law School And The State, William W. Cook

Michigan Law Review

On the legal profession rests the responsibility for the future of America. Now here else does the necessary leadership exist, and leadership, based on training, character and intelligence, will determine the future of the republic. The rapid rise of America to the primacy of the world; its vast wealth, power and population; its problems of capital and labor; its expansion of governmental functions; its diversity of races; its determination to preserve American institutions-all demand leadership of the highest order, and that can be found only in the legal profession. It is a problem of the ages. From Plato's Republic to …

The Law Institute And The Teacher Of Law, Herbert F. Goodrich Feb 1928

The Law Institute And The Teacher Of Law, Herbert F. Goodrich

Michigan Law Review

The American Law Institute will soon be five years old. It is not necessary here to describe its aims and purposes; every law teacher knows of the state of our law that brought the Institute into being, and of the high hopes which are entertained of its influence and accomplishments. Beginnings have been made in Trusts and Property. Substantial progress has been shown in Agency, Contracts, Conflict of Laws, and Torts, as well as the code of criminal procedure. We have by this time an appreciable amount of the product of the body which is restating our law. How can …

Addresses Delivered At The Dedication Of The Lawyers' Club Of The University Of Michigan, June 13, 1925 May 1926

Addresses Delivered At The Dedication Of The Lawyers' Club Of The University Of Michigan, June 13, 1925

About the Buildings

On April 25, 1922, Mr. William W. Cook, a graduate of the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts of the University of Michigan in 1880 and of the Law Department in 1882, wrote to the Regents of the University an offer to erect for the University, at his own expense, "a law students' combined club and dormitory building." In the letter it was stated that "All dues and all profit from the operation of the building shall be used exclusively for legal research work." The gift having been accepted, a strikingly beautiful group of buildings with sleeping rooms and …

Have The Bench And Bar Anything To Contribute To The Teaching Of Law?, Learned Hand Mar 1926

Have The Bench And Bar Anything To Contribute To The Teaching Of Law?, Learned Hand

Michigan Law Review

The teaching of lawyers is indeed as distinct a vocation from the practice of law, as law is from engineering or science. You have of recent years come practically to recognize it by your increasing insistence upon the teacher's exclusive devotion to his calling, so that I suppose not only has the well-worn practitioner wholly disappeared, who from his semi-antiquation delivers a course of lectures, but the part time teacher even in the prime of his powers is more and more evidently doomed. I cannot see this change as anything but happy and advantageous. If for no other reason I …

The Law School And The Professional Tradition, Roscoe Pound Dec 1925

The Law School And The Professional Tradition, Roscoe Pound

Michigan Law Review

Only historians know that Michigan, Illinois and Wisconsin were once, at least in legal theory, governed by the Custom of Paris. That fact has not left a mark upon the actual law of any of those jurisdictions. Nor is the reason far to seek. In the pioneer days of the French occupation of this part of North America there was little scope for such law as is to be found in books. There was need only for a rude administration of offhand justice in the simple concerns of a frontier society. And had there been need for anything more, the …

The Needs Of A Law School, Henry M. Bates Nov 1925

The Needs Of A Law School, Henry M. Bates

Michigan Law Review

A wide and remarkable experience, sound judgment, fine legal scholarship, and great intellectual ability have combined to make Mr. Cook's gift and his plan for this School unique in the annals of legal e4ucation. Beautiful and satisfying as are the buildings which he has erected, still more important and still more likely to produce good results for law and the administration of justice, is the plan into which he has put so much thought.

The Next Task Of The Law School, James Parker Hall Nov 1925

The Next Task Of The Law School, James Parker Hall

Michigan Law Review

When, last December, I first saw these beautiful buildings, I could only exclaim: "It is a dream--a wonderful dream come true!" There was nothing original about this exclamation. You have all said or thought the same thing every time you have approached this quadrangle. In my mouth this trite but spontaneous utterance was but part of the res gestae of being conducted through the group by Dean Bates, the proud and intimate spirit of this architectural magnificence. And now, when I am privileged to return and to share in the dedication to the high service of man of this miracle …

A Letter To The Lawyers' Club, William W. Cook Nov 1925

A Letter To The Lawyers' Club, William W. Cook

Michigan Law Review

In view of the fact that Pollock and Maitland do not go beyond the time of Edward I and Reeves no further than Elizabeth's reign, Professor Holdsworth, in publishing a revision and extension to the eighteenth century of his well known work, ventures to point out that it is "the first continuous history of English law that has ever been written". And so it is, to the point to which he has carried it thus far. One more volume at least is promised in the near future; while it is to be hoped that subsequent contributions may ultimately appear. "From …

Graduate Study In Law At Michigan Apr 1925

Graduate Study In Law At Michigan

Michigan Law Review

A notable advance in the organization of graduate study in law at Michigan has been achieved recently in the approval by the Board of Regents of a new program prepared and submitted by the Law Faculty. The program is the result of several years of experimentation and study. The word "program'', indeed, should not be permitted to give a false impression. In substantial measure the recent action only approves a new and more adequate description of such advanced work in law as the Law School is not only now prepared to offer but is actually offering for a limited class …

Cases On Principal And Agent And Master And Servant Selected From Decisions Of English And American Courts, Edwin C. Goddard Jan 1925

Cases On Principal And Agent And Master And Servant Selected From Decisions Of English And American Courts, Edwin C. Goddard

Books

“In the first edition of this work no effort was made to cover the subject of Master and Servant. The exigencies of the law school curriculum, if not the unity of the subjects, seem to require that Principal and Agent and Master and Servant be treated in a single course. Historically the subject of Agency grew out of the much earlier developed subject of Master and Servant. Blackstone did not use the term ‘agent’ in reference to the agency relation, nor does he recognize the subject of Agency apart from that of Master and Servant, and there only in a …

Articles

"While in no sense a law school affair, the American Law Institute is so intimately connected with the progress of the law and legal education that it justifies mention here. The Institute was organized at a meeting of judges, lawyers and law teachers, held in Washington in February, 1923.... The Law School of the University of Michigan is and will continue to be intimately connected with this movement for the improvement of the law...."
