Legal Education: Its Relation To The People And The State, Harry B. Hutchins

Articles

All callings are to a greater or less extent interdependent. One should not be fostered at the expense of another, yet any improvement along a given line is more than local and immediate in its influence. It reaches more than those who are directly concerned.

The fostering of.an enterprise …

Law Abridgment: Closing Address Delivered Before The Graduating Law Class Of The University Of Michigan, March 20, 1879., James V. Campbell

Books

The young lawyer, as he scans the dreary catalogues, and wonders what Croesus can buy or what brain can learn all this lore, is sorely puzzled what books to choose from the thousands that have found printers. And when a few years of practice have shown him how small a share of these books have done any good in the world, he is forced …

The friends of the college being no longer competent to support so extensive an institution, as that which the charter recommends; and when science at large cannot be cultivated, that scheme of education being most proper, which is more immediately subordinate to the leading objects of society:

The scanty stipend lately paid by each scholar for commons, having occasioned a considerable expense,

It being just, that students inducted into …
