j'dW cnooi o WITH THE OPENING of the University of Miami in 1926 the School of Law was organized which offered the first professional courses of the University. The first Dean of the Law School was the late Richard Austin Rasco. whose son now occupies that office. Its consistent growth under competent leadership has made it one of the foremost law schools in Florida. A degree from the University of Miami Law School is recognized and approved by the Supreme Court of Florida. This enables a graduate student to practice anywhere in the state upon presentation of his diploma and eliminates the necessity of a bar examination. The students are required to cover a three years' course by tin case method. In addition to this, there is a weekly moot court held in a downtown courtroom which is presided over by one of the prominent local judges. The law students must participate as jurors, witnesses, prosecuting and defending attorneys. This phase of training is invaluable to the student for it familiarizes him with tin’ procedure of the various courts, giving him the experience necessary to practice law confidently and successfully. The school teaches the fundamentals of American and English law placing special stress on Supreme Court decisions. Integrity, honor and the principals of good citizenship are emphasized as being of great importance to the lawyer of today. Living by these standards leads to a high code of ethics which reflects credit not only on the graduate's name and his profession but also on the institution from which he received his degree. The stressing of these ethics in this school is a credit to the University and a tribute to its founders. The course required of those who have satisfied the pre law requisites in first year are sixteen in number, including Torts. Contracts, and Common Law Pleading. The second year requires eighteen courses, including Bills and Torts, and Evidence. The third year numbers twenty courses among which arc Admiralty and Admiralty Procedure and Constitutional Law. In addition there are two courses in Insurance and Air Law which may be selected. The success of the Law School is an indication of the part that professional schools will play in the University in the future. Its growth is assured by the progress of the past.
