Faculty of the School of Law
It is with tonsiderableaatisfaction that I bring
you greerings from the Board of Directors of Texas Tech.
As one who hS5 witnened the law achool's development from
Board action on October 9,1963, to the arrival of the fiut
enteringcla51,1 in the fall of 1967, I have cOme to reali!:e
the contribution which a professional school can lll8ke to
the life of a university.
We at Texas Tech are extremely fortunate to have this
:::~~~~~e~~ the growing list of graduate programs and
As laymen. too often we forget the importance of the
role of law in an orderly society. Certainly, no society
can aspire to greatness without the assistance of wise and
well-trained counsel. I think that all of uS who live in
the United States may derive satisfaction from the fact
that our univer5ities have traditionally assumed a leadership role in the training of young men and women destined
to enter the legal profession. As our new School of Law
grows, I feel confident that i t will lIl8ke s major contribution not only to the community and state, but also will
be counted among the truly distinguished profenional
schools in this cOWltry.

THE HONORABLE TRVETT SMlTIi
Texas Tech first opened its doors in the fall of 1925
with six buildings and an enrollment of 910 students. Because of its unique location in the fertile South Plains and
because it was quick to assume a leading role among
schools in the Southwest, the institution has prospered and
grown and can now lay claim to being a major university
with demonstrated strength in the arts, humanities, and
sciences. It contains six instructional schools-Agriculture,
Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Education, Engineering, Home Economics-and a Graduate School, in
addition to the School of Law. It functions as do its counterparts in Austin, College Station, and HoustOn under the
guidance of the Coordinating Board, Texas College and
University System.
Since it was established over forty years ago, Texas Tech
has grown to an institution with a student body approaching 20,000 and a resident faculty drawn from all parts of
the world. Many special facilities for interdisciplinary research are at hand, such as the computer center, the Southwest Collection, and the library's expanding collection of
material in the general areas of the humanities. The University's most recent interest in research is reflected in its International Center for Arid and Semi-Arid Land Studies
which will focus the contributions of various academic disciplines on problems of these large segments of the earth's
surface.
'
Texas Tech is located in Lubbotk, a city of over 170,000
population, the commercial and financial "hub" of the prosperous South Plains region of Texas. The city offers an
unusually fine variety of cultural opportunities and, at an
altitude of 3,250 feet, has a dry and invigorating climate.

The School of Law
In 196} the Board of Directors of Texas Technological
College provided for the addition of a School of Law. Subsequently, this action was approved by the Texas Commission on Higher Education and by the Commission's successor, the Coordinating Board, Texas College and University Syncm.
Instruction commenced in the fall of 1967 with :I. firstyear class. In 1968 and later yean supplemental courses will
be added (0 complete the standard three-year curriculum.
Students in the first entering class will be eligible for gr3duation upon completion of the course of study in 1970. The
program embr:aces only full-time instruction, and no evening division is contemplated.
The School of Law offers :1 limited number of courses
during the summer for students who have completro at
least one year of bw study, :It Texas Tech or elsewhere.
The School of Law receivro provisional approval by
the Supreme Court of Texas under the Rules Governing
Admission to the Bar of Texas in 1967, and final approval
in June 1968. The school met the requirementS for provisional approval by the American Bar Association and was so
notified by the Council of the Section of Legal Education
and Admissions to the Bar in February 1968. As a result,
graduates of the School of Law are qualified to apply for
admission to practice in :'lny state in the United States.
The faculty of the school is active in the affairs of the
Association of American Law Sc1Jools and application for
institutional membership in lhat orgmization is currently
in progress.
The objective of the faculty of lhe School of Law is
to train young men and women for the practice of law
anywhere in the United States, whether it be as advocate,
counselor, judge, or bw teacher, in accordance with the
highest traditions of professional responsibility. At the S:lme
time recognition is given to the use of law :lS a stcppingstone to :l career in government, politics, or business. The
curriculum and the methods of instruction will be designed
to develop in the student his highest potential, whatever
may have been his reason (or entering the school.
Particubr attention, especially in research and public
service, will be paid to problems involving arid and semiarid regions of the nation and the world.

A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN
A school of law differs from most undergraduate
university departments in that, like other professional
schools, it owes its allegiance not only to the university but
also to the profession. In the resulting relationships, each law
school develops a personality of its own, and it is this characteristic personality which makes a particular school right
for some but not for others. I would like to indicate some
of the principles upon which the Texas Tech School of Law
is being builL
By tradition, the faculties of schools of law do not
lecture. Rather, the emphasis is on the student's ability to
draw on his analytical powers and to present various sides
of the case under discussion. The student's contribution is
shaped and in a sense guided by the direction which the instructor's Questions take. Complementing this so-called Socratic method is the use of the casebook which serves as the
student's classroom text. Nationally recognized casebooks
arc used throughout the country. so that a student entering
law school in Texas may well be using the same book as his
counterpart on the East Coast or in the Pacific Northwest.
Therefore the personality of the school is not manifest in
the courses which 3.re offered or in the teaching materials
employed by particular instructors. Rather the character
which a school develops over the years is the result of the
student body and its interaction with a rich and varied
faculty. The embryo of such a faculty. listed in this catalog.
includes men with a wealch of experience in teaching, administration. and legal practice. Such a faculty will be embellished and nurtured in the years to come.
Though Texas Tech be large, law classes from the first
year through the third will be of a size which will encourage
and foster close personal student-faculty contact and which
will enable each student to achieve the ultimate benefit from
his three years of formal legal education. The curriculum
will present many elective offerings, including seminars of
smalJ enrollment during the third year,
Opening a new law school is an exciting undertaking.
We at Texas Tech are looking forward to seeing the members of our first class graduate and assume their responsibilities as members of the legal profession. It is our hope
that a goodly number of those who have asked for this announcement will also be among the first to complete their
legal training at our School of Law.
Richard B. Amoudes. Dean
THE LAW LIBRARY
An essential ingredient of the study of law is learning
by doing; hence. no law school can aspire to a position of
excellence without an outstanding library. A law school's
library facilities have been equated to the laboratory facilities associated with the physical sciences.
For maximum use by the student body. the library is
open over one hundred hours per week. Multiple copies of
select monographs. treatises. and reports are available so that
more than one team of students may study the same problem
at the same time.
In general. the present collection of over 30.000 volumes may be divided into three basic categories: (1) Sources
of the law. including case reports. federal and state statutes.
and administrative decisions and regulations; (2) Research
aids, such as digests. encyclopedias, and indexes; (3) Commentaries on the law. including treatises and legal periodicals. The School of Law currently is subscribing to and has
the back issues of more than 200 legal periodicals; the library has many loose-leaf services of interest to students
and practitioners alike and is expanding its holdings in such
specialized areas as labor law. taxation. and legal medicine.
The school's law library is the principal repository for legal
materials within a radius of 300 miles.
In addition. the main College library. a government
depository. contains a substantial number of legal documents and other materials closely related to law which are
available to students in the 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
law school's contribution to the life of the profession and
the community. In establishing the foundation as a nonprofit entity, its sponsors envisioned the foundation as a
15
device to develop the school's full potential, especially in the
years immediately following its creation. Just as the Bar
has long realized i[S obligation :l.S a community leader, the
School of Law must assume il:5 obligations both within and
without the university community. 1c is anticipated that
the school's response to this challenge will justify the expectations of those who are at work making the Law School
Foundation :1 viable force.
Fellows of the FOllndation
\Within the foundation, attorneys and others who have
felt a commitment to aid the school in achieving excellence
have become Fellows of the Foundation. Their contributions
will aid the scholarship, practice court, and law review programs.
FINA ClAL ASSISTANCE
Scholarships, loans, and a limited number of put-time
positions are available in the School of Law and in the university. Awards of financial :J.ssistance arc made on the basis
of academic promise and financial need.
Scholarship application forms are available from the
School of Law. In the case of entering students, completed
forms should be returned to the School of Law no later
than March 15 of the ycar in which the student intends
to enter, in order to receive fullest consideration for aLi
available scholarships. Applic:nions for most grants and
10:lns :lre considered by the Schobrship Committee in July,
at which time the committee can inform itself of the applicant's perform:lnce during the preceding academic ye:tr.

Loalls
Texas Tech :ldministers numerous student loan funds
upon which students may draw for assistance in paying their
college related expenses, including the National Defense
Student Loan Program :md the Texas Opportunity Plan.
For these programs, applications must be postmarked by
July I for the following fall semester. Additional information regarding any of the university loan funds may be obtained by writing to Thomas Stover, Director of Fin:mcial
Aid, P.O. Box 4179, Texas Technological College, Lubbock,
Texas 79409.
A permanent building to house the School of Law has
been moving through the planning stages for over a year
and is schcduled for occupancy in the summer of 1969.
As this catalog gocs to press, the plans for the building arc
out for bids, with construction scheduled to start in July
1968.
The building, pictured above, has been designed to
maintain dominant features of the best kind of current, conventional legal education while permitting the assimilation
and addition of prospective developments.
Pending completion of the permanent facilities, the
school is housed in air-conditioned temporary quarters.

Scholarships
Lawrence F. Green Memorial Scholarship: A scholarship grant of $200 cnablished in memory of the late Lub-
bock attorney by John F. Maner of Lubbock, to a deserving
second or third ycar seudent.
Lubbock Bar Auxiliary Scholarship: A scholarship grant

Texas Tech Ex-Students Association Scholarships: Four
scholarships in the amount of $250 each were made available

1967 and were renewed in 1968. It is expected that a similar
or greatcr number of scholarships will be available in subsequent years.
Witherspoon. Aiken, Thomas & Langley Scholarship:
A scholarship grant of $250 established by the named Hereford law firm to be awarded to a deserving second or third

flmds
The Victor H. Lindsey Memorial Fund: At the suggestion of Mrs. Victor H. Lindsey of Lubbock, widow of
Judge Victor H. Lindsey, of the 72nd District Court, the
Lubbock County Bar Association and friends of the late
Judge Lindsey have created this fund for loans and other
financial assistance to law students in need.
Judge E. E. Jordan, of the 47th District Court in Amarillo, has provided a fund for law students who find themselves in un:mticipated, short-term financial difficulties.
Part-Time Employmel/t
A limited number of part-time positions arc available
in the School of Law, mostly in the law library. Because
students are expected to devote substantially all of their
time to the study of law, outSide employment should be
kept to a minimum, and in no case should exceed 15 hours
per week.
GEO. \V/. AND SARAH H. DUPREE AWARD
An award of $100, endowed by a gift from Mr. and
Mrs. Dupree, is presented annually to the member of the
graduating class who, in the opinjon of his colleagues. best
exemplifies the ability, integrity, and sense of professional
responsibility desired in one soon to join the legal profession.
Consideration is given to his academic record, to the leadership he has provided, and to the contributions he has made
to the law school and the community.
Prizes
NAn-IAN BURKAN MEMORIAL P'RIZE-The American
Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers annually
awards a firSt prize of $250 to the student in the School of
Law who, in the opinion of the facuIty, prepares the best
paper on some phase of copyright law. A second prize of
S100 is also awarded.
LAW' BooK PRIZES-The Lawyers Cooperative Publishing Company and the Bancroft-Whitney Company of
Rochester, ew York, and the West Publishing Company
of St. Paul, Minnesou., award selected titles of their publications annually to the students achieving the highest grades
in each course and in overall class standing.
HOUSING
Space is available in sevenl comfortable and attractive
dormitories for unmarried law studentS. Inquiries and correspondence regarding room reservations in the residence
halls on campus should be addressed to the Coordinator of
Residence Hall Room Reservations, Texas Tcchnological
College, P.O. Box 4629, Lubbock, Texas 79409.
All law students are engaged in graduatc study and
arc free to select their own off-campus housing. Because the
campus is boundcd on three sides by residential areas, offcampus living quarters of all types, including private dormitories, arc conveniently available.
PLACEMENT
The School of Law maintains a placement service which
will assist students in finding legal and other positions upon
graduation. In the interim until the first class graduates, it
aids students in finding legal positions for the summer.
21
PRELEGAL EDUCATION
The School of Law docs not prescribe a definite prelegal curriculum for its applicants. The wide range of lawyers' tasks and the difference in offerings from school to
school preclude such an approach. However, there are certain goals which every prelaw student should keep before
him in planning his college program. He should strive to
acquire the ability to read, write, and speak the English
language well; to gain a critical understanding of human
values and institutions-political, economic, and social; and
to develop in himself the power to think creatively. His undergraduate training should result not only in a quantity
of knowledge, but also in an understanding of the degrees,
the conditions, and the why and how of his knowledge.
Two items deserve special mention. A student will find
it helpful to have some preliminary work in accounting as
background for the courses in business associations and taxation. Typing skills will prove useful not only in the preparation of briefs and memoranda, but also for daily preparation
and examinations.
REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
Admission
An applicant must have received, or have completed
all requirements for, a baccalaureate degree from a college
or university of approved standing _prior to the time he begins his work in the School of Law. An applicant's record
must be of sufficiently high quality to demonstrate that he
is qualified for the study of law. In questionable cases, the
work of the last two college years will be weighed more
heavily than that of earlier years.
Applicants must also achieve a satisfactory score on the
Law School Admission Test, administered four times a year
throughout the United States and in many foreign countries
by the Educational Testing Service.
Students are admitted only on a full-time basis and
only in the fall. The School of Law recommends that students devote their entire time to the study of law. Students
who are engaged in outside employment must report the
number of hours worked each week, and may be asked to
withdraw from the school if the amount of time spent in
22
23
outside employment is deemed excessive or appears to interfere with full-time study of law.
ADMISSION PROCEDURES
An applicacion (orm and additional information may
be obtained by writing to
Office of the Dean
School of Law
Texas Technological College
Lubbock, T «as 79409
The completed application should be returned to the above
address at the earliest opporcunity after the beginning of the
applicant's senior year.
The last date for filing completed application forms is
July 1 for entrance in September. but substantially earlier
filing is strongly recommended. Applicants filing after May
I will be at a considerable disadvantage in competing for
the limited number of places available in the next entering
class.
Students having questions concerning the study of law
or wishing information about law school admission policies
are urged to visit the law school and consult with one or
more members of the law school faculty. A collection of current bulletins and announcements from all approved law
schools is on file for student use.
Transcripts
The applicant who has received his degree should have
two official transcripts forwarded direc/ly to the School of
Law from each college previously attended, except that applic:\nts whose degree was awarded by Texas Tech will need
to have only one transcript forwarded from all schools attended.
A student who is a candidate for :l. baccabureate degree
in June or August may have his application considered prior
to receiving his degree. He should submit one transcript of
his college work through the first seven semesters or ten
quarters. After completing his college work, the student
must complete his application by sending two official transcripts showing receipt of degree and a toral of two official
transcriptS from all other colleges attended, except for the
applicant who received his degree from Texas Tech who will
need to forward only one official transcript showing receipt
of degree and one official transcript from each other college attended.
Law School Admissio1l Tesl
The applicant mwt take the Law School Admission
Test and request that his score be reported to the School
of Law. The test wually is given in ovember. February,
April, and August of each year. It is recommended that the
applicant take the test no later than the February prior to
prospective emrance to the School of Law.
Information concerning the tCSt, application forms,
and a list of the testing centers may be obtained by applying
ill person at the School of Law or by writing to Law School
Admission Test, Educational Testing Service, Princeton,
New Jersey 08540.

After receiving a lener of acceptance to the first year
cbss from the School of Law, an applicant mwt submit tWO
permanent, passport-size, facial photographs (approximately 2" x 2"). The photographs should be submitted prior to
registration.
Good Charactrr
The School of Law may deny admission to any applicant who, in the judgment of the faculty, may appear to be
unfit in character to engage in the study or practice of bw.

PROGRAM OF STUDY
In order to be recommended for graduation by the
faculty of the School of Law, a student must have successfully completed a minimum of 90 semester hours, including
at least one seminar, normally accomplished in six semesters,
or five semesters and twO summer sessions. The courses in
the first year are required. They provide the foundation for
furcher legal study and mwt be satisfactorily completed.
First year students who fail to maintain a satisfactOry average at the end of their first year will be requested to withdraw from 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 two and one-half years. In
order to accelerate, a student must attend two summer
sessions.
Semi11ar Requirement
After completing two-thirds of the hours needed for
graduation, 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,

Law Review
The LAw Review is a professional legal journal managed and edited by law litudents. The Law Review publishes
both student-written notes and comments on various areas
of th~ .law and leading arcicles by professors, judges, and
practlcmg attorneys.
Participation in Law Review work is both a recognition of superior academic achievement and a unique educational opportunity. Students who rank at the top of their
first-yeu class are invited to serve as Law Review candidates during their second year. The editorial board for the
following year is chosen from among the Low Review candidates.
The principal responsibility of Law Review candidates
is to produce during the year at least one publishable note or
comment on a current legal problem. Their work is done
under the supervision of the student editorial board with
the assistance of a faculcy sponsor. Editorial board m~mbers
not only supervise the second year work, but select and edit
the major arcicles contributed by nonstudents and continue
their own activities as contributors to the Law Review.
Change of ReqlliremefJts
The faculcy of the School of Law reserves the right
to change the schedule of classes, the program of instruction, the (equirements for degrees, and any other similar
rules or regulations. This power wiU not be exercised however, to impose substantial detriment upon students e~rolled
at the time of the change.
RELATED ACTIVITIES
Orientatioll and Counseling
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
matters 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.
28
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 law. Students are urged to attend
meetings of the Lubbock County Bar Association and
various continuing legal education programs. in which the
School of Law will take an active part. Federal and sure
courts are open to law students, and it is anticipated that,
upon completion of the permanent law school building,
trials and arbitration proceedings will he 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 between schools. Second and third year students
participate in the legal aid program of the Lubbock C?~~ty
Bar Association and will be given the fullest responslbiltty
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 extracurricular
activities.
Texas Tech Student Bar Association
The Texas Tech Student Bar Association was organized
to promote the objectives of the School of Law, including
an appreciation for fair :md impartial administration of
justice, the furthering of the professional ethical understanding of the students, cooperation and association among s~u­
dents, faculty, and the Bar, and the encouragement of active
relations between the School of Law and the university.
Law Wives of Texas Tech
The purpose of the Law Wives of Texas Tech is to
foster, through joint pursuit of common interests, better
acquaintance and mutual understanding among women
whose husbands are preparing for, or engaged in, the legal
profession, Regular monthly meetings are held, in addition
to special events planned in conjunction with the Student
Bar Association.
