THE LAW LIBRARY
A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN
A school of law differs from most underguduate
university dep:utmenu in that, like other professional
schools, it owes its :allegiance not only to the university but
to the profession. In the resulting rclatio!Uhips, each law
school devc.lops a personality of its own, and it is this characteristic personality which makes a particular school right
for some but nOt for othc.rs.
By tradition, the faculties of schools of law do not
lecture. Rather, the emphasis is on the 5tudc:nt's ~bilitt: to
draw on his analytical powen and to present vanow sides
of the problem under discussion. ~ s~de-nt'~ conui~u­
tion is shaped and guided by tbe dIrcctlOn which the 10struCtor"s questiom take. Complemmting this so-called Socutic method is the use of the casc.book which sc.rves as the
studmes clauroom text.
nion.aJly recognized casebooks
are used throughout the counuy, ~ that a student mtc:rin~
law school in Tens may wc.ll be unng the same book as hl$
counte:rpart on the East Coast or in the ~acific or.thw~t.
Thucfore the pe:nonaliry of the ~hool 1$ DOt. manifest. In
the courses which ne offered or I.n the trachlOg maec.nals
employed by particular instructors. Rather the characte.t
which a school develops over the yran is the result of the
intcnction of the nudent body with a nch and varied faculty. Such a faculty, lis-ted in this catalog, includes mw with
a wealth of expuic:nce in teaching, administration, and legal
pnctice.
lhough Texas Tech isone of the l:arger state univc:rsities,
law classes from the fint yeu through the third are of a
siu which encourages and fosten dose personal studentfaculty contaCt and which en3bles each student to achieve
tbe ultim:ate benefit from his three ye2rs of formal legal
education. The curriculum presents many c:Iective offerings,
including seminars of sm211 enrollment during the third year.
Now that the first c1us has graduated and obtained
oucstanding positions in the legal and governmental communities, we look forward to furure classes following in their
(ootsteps.
Richtlrd B. Amandts, Dtlln
An ~ssential ingrwient of the study of I2w is learning
by doingi hence, no bw school can -aspire to a position of
excellence without an outstanding library. A I:Iw school's
library fac.ilitia have been equated to the labontory f:acilities a.uociatcd with the physical sciences.
For maximum use by the nudent body. the libr:ary iJ
opm over onc hundrrd hoUN per w«k. Multiple copies of
sc.lect monographs, treatisc:s, and reports are :available 50 that
mol"C than onC' [cam of stuMnu may srudy tM same problem
at tilt same time.
In ICnu:aJ, tilt present collrction of ova 50,000 volumes nuy be divi<kd into lhrtt ~c categories: (1) Sources
of the law, including aK repores, federal and stale sUtutes.
and administruive dKisions and rcgubtioos; (2) Reseuch
:aids, such as digests, encyclo~iu. an~ indexcs; (3) ~~­
menu.ries on the law, including treatISeS and legal perioclt-
ols.
The School of l:a., currently is subscribing to more
duo 560 periodicals. Complett sets of ove.r 250 arc on the
shelves. The libr:ary has nuny loose-leal services of inte.rest
to scudenu and practitionen alike and is UP3.llding iu hold·
ings in such specializ.ed arC"as as .Iabor ~aw, ta~t~n~ and
legal medicine. The school's bw library as tbe prinCIpal repository for lepl matui-als within a r:adiw of more tfu.n
JOO miles.
In .addition, the main University libury, a govc.mment
depository, conuins a substantial number of legal. doc-ume-ncs and other materials closely rc.lated to law which arc
available to stude-nu in me School of Law as a supplement
to the law library.
TEXAS TECH LAW SCHOOL FOUNDATION
Incorporated on October 16, 1967, the law School
Foundation was conceived as a vehicle for expanding the
l:aw school's contribution to the life of the profession and
the community. In establishing the foundation as a non·
profit entity, its sponsors envisioned the foundation as a
device to develop the school's full potenti:al, especially in the
years immedi:uely following its creation. Juse as the Bar
IS
has long re.alized its obligation as a community leader, the
School of Law must assume its obligations both within and
without the university community. It is anticipated that
the Khool's response to this challenge will jwtify the exptCutions of those who arc at work making the Law School
Foundation a viable force.
F.llmvr of Ib< FOJI.J.tion
Within the foundation, attomc:ys and others who have
Edt a commitment to aid the school in achieving excellence
have become: Fellows of

PLACEMENT
The School of Law maintains a placement service which
assists students in finding legal and other positions upon
graduation. The school is particularly proud of the employment opportunities obtained by members of the first class,
which include one of the three White House Fellowships
awarded to attorneys during 1970-71, four clerkships with
federal judges, a clerkship to the Chief Justice of Nevada,
as well as other prestigious opportunities which had to be
declined for various reasons, including military commitments.

PRELEGAL EDveATIO
dmis ion
The School of Law does not prescribe a ddinitc pre·
lepl curriculum for its applicants. The wide range of law.
yen' tasks and the difference in offerings Crom school to
school prrclude such an approach. However, thue an ccrtain goab which every prd:aw student should keep before
him in planning his college prognm. He should strive to
acquire the ability to read, writc, and speak the: EngUsh
language well; [() g2m a critical undernanding of human
values and institutions-political. economic, and social; :and
to develop in hinuelf the powu to think cre2tively. His undergnduau training should remit nor only in a quantity
of knowlo:lge, but also in an understanding of the basis of
his knowledge, its degrees and conditions.
Two items deserve special mention. A srudent will find
it helpful to have some prdiminary work in accounting as
background for the courses in business associations and uJ,:a·
cion. Typing skills wiJl prove useful not only in the preparation of brids and memoranda, but also for daily prepantion
and cxaminacions.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSIO
An appljcant must have received, or have complcced
all requlrcmtnu (or, a baccalaureate degru: from a colkgr

Texas residents, $200 for nonresidents) will again be due
in the spring semester, although the other fees and expenses
for books and supplies will be smaller in the spring.

PROGRAM OF STUDY
In order to be recommended for the J.D. degree by the
faculty of the School of law, a student must have successfully completed a minimum of 90 semester hours, including
at lease onc seminar, normally accomplished in six semesters,
or five semesters and two summer sessions. First year students who fail to maintain a satisfactory average at the
end of their first year will be denied permission to continue
in the School of Law. Details regarding requirements of
study in residence, required courses, and grade averages
are made available to students during registration.
The normal course load is regulated by the faculty of
the School of Law. A student is expected to enroll for a full
academic load but may not take more than 16 hours in
any semester without special permission. There is no minimum course load requirement for students during a summer
session.
Acceleration
The School of Law permits its students to accelerate
their work and to graduate in December of the third year.
[n order to accelerate, a student must attend two summer
sessions.
Seminar Requiremellt
During the third year each student is required to enroll in a seminar or to register for research credit under a
specific faculty member. The purpose of this requirement
is to permit the student, in close cooperation with a member
of the faculty, to engage in original research and writing
in an area of mutual interest.
Courtroom Practice and Technique
The Curriculum
Throughout the student's law school career, he will
have an opportunity to participate in courtroom activities,
in the first and second year at the appellate level and during the third year at the trial and appellate levels.
During the third year, a student prosecutor program
is available which involves the clinical training of students
in the prosecution of actual crimes before appropriate courts
and juvenile delinquency tribunals.
30
31
Law Review
The Law Review is a professional legal journal managed and edited by law students. The Law Review publishes
both student-written notes and comments on various areas
of the law and leading articles by professors. judges, and
practicing attorneys.
Participation in Law Review work is both a recognition of superior academic achievement and a unique educa.tional opportunity. Students who rank at the top of their
first-yeaT class 3rc invited to serve as Law R.eview candidates during their second year. The editorial board for the
following year is chosen from among the Law Review candidates.
The principal responsibility of Law Review candidates
is to produce during the year at least one publishable note or
CQmment on a current legal problem. Their work is done
under the supervision of the student editorial board, with
the assistance of a faculty sponsor. Editorial board members
not only supervise the second year work, but select and edit
the major articles contributed by nonstudents and continue
their own activities as contributors to the Law Review.
Forum
Forum, the Texas Tech School of Law honor society,
was founded for the purpose of encouraging legal scholarship and advancing the ethical standards of the legal
profession. Its members are selected by the faculty from
those students who rank in the highest ten percent of the
third year class. The students selected from the class of
1970 were Leora H. Alexander, Marwin B. Brakebill, R.
Charles Gentry, Ruth Kirby, and William G. Shaw.
Change 01 Requiremellts
The faculty of the School of Law reserves the right
to change the schedule of cbsses, the program of instruction, the requirements for degrees, and any other similar
rules or regulations. This power will not be exercised, however, to impose substantial detriment upon students enrolled
at the time of the change.
RELATED ACTIVITIES
Orim/a/ion am/ COlllISelillg
The School of Law is firmly committed to the "open
door" policy in faculty-student relations. From the first
academic contact during the week of orientation and introduction to the study of law until graduation, the faculty
is available for consultation with respect to registration, the
course of study, problems of general scholarship, and other
maners relating to the student's progress in school. With a
low student-faculty ratio and first year classes of no more
than 75 students, each student will have abundant opportunities for extensive personal contact with the faculty.
Professional Enrichment
Legal educators agree that student development is greatly aided by professional experiences outside the classroom
and by frequent and varied contacts with those engaged in
the active practice of the bw. Students are urged to attend
meetings of the Lubbock County Bar Association and
various continuing legal education programs, in which the
School of Law takes an active part. Federal and state
courts are open to law students. It is anticipated thar
trials and arbitration proceedings will be conducted in the
School of Law, thus facilitating the students' observance of
courtroom procedure and practice.
On a more formal level, students are encouraged to
participate actively in trial and appellate moot court
competitions, leading to statewide, regional, and national
competitions among schools. Second and third year students
participate in the legal aid program of the Lubbock County
Bar Association and will be given the fullest responsibility
consistent with their experience and ability.
Additional professionally related programs and projects
will be instituted as the student body grows and as students
have the time to devote their efforts to these extracurricubr
activities.
Texas Tech St'lldelJt Bar Association
The Texas Tech Student Bar Association was organized
to promote the objectives of the School of Law, including
an appreciation for fair and impartial administration of
justice, the furthering of the professional ethical understanding of the students, cooperation and association among students, faculty, and the Bar, and the encouragement of active
relations between the School of Law and the University.
32
Fraternities and Sororities

Phi and Phi Alpha Delta. professional legal fraternities,
and of Kappa Beta Pi, professional legal sorority.
Utw Wives of Texas Tuh
