College of MW I Paul S. Andrews DEAN OF LAW ijEVENTY-SEVEN student lawyers seek knowledge of legal reasoning in ancient Hackett Hall in downtown Syracuse. Dean Paul Shipman Andrews and his seven associates guide sober, serious students for three years in their pursuit in all phases of law: legal practice, teaching, public law, corporation law anil corporation finance. The programs of study are planned to give the student an acquaintance with the sources of the law, a sound and general knowledge of its ideals and principles as they have developed and are now developing, and a store of legal informa- tion as great as he can assimilate in three years of study. He is drilled in the rigid discipline of legal reasoning, in the hope of equipping him. as his interests may lead, for the best type of practice, legal teaching, or research. One of the most valuable features of the college has been the constant process of individual conferences and consultations between faculty and students. Founded at Syracuse in 1896, the College of Law has produced many eminent lawyers and judges. A Board of Visitors, com- posed of some of these eminent men, come from all parts of the country to attend Board meetings, plan the future of the school, hear reports on progress, and offer constructive criticisms. Senior Moot Court is the highlight of the student-lawyer ' s life. Held in the Appellate I3i ision room in the County Court house before a bench of distinguished lawyers and judges, seniors plead cases in true, dramatic style. Juniors and frosh also boast moot courts held in classrooms. Reward for their efforts - law students may belong to Phi Delta Phi, national legal fraternity, a national, university honor society, and a local society for social and in- tellectual activities, known as the Louis Marshall Society in honor of the great lawyer and benefactor of this Law College.
