H .V.. ........,... . .. - -1- Up two flights ot stairs in the Arts-Law, you will find on almost any weekday, a group of students arguing, so to speak, their heads ott. They are attending the Valparaiso School ot Law, and are being prepared tor active law practice. The School of Law is accredited by the American Bar Association, and its degree of Bachelor of Law is approved by the Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York. The school also belongs to the Associa- tion ot American Law Schools. Although quantity in the school is lacking, quality makes up for it. The courses are designed to give training applicable in any state in the Union. The potential lawyers are firmly grounded in the theory ot the law, as well as given an opportunity to experiment actively with what they have learned. ln the practice court, the student is responsible for a trial case, from the prep- aration to the actual presentation.

AUGURATI I N ON THE FIFTEENTH ANNIVER OF T HE NEW lt was late afternoon on Sunday, October sixth. A driving rain outside and the gathering darkness of the evening sup- plied an effective back-drop to President O. P. Kretzmann's inaugural address, in which the new president, extremely young as college presidents go, dedi- cated the university to the future. Behind him sat the men who had, almost all of them, directed the affairs of the university since it came under Lutheran auspices in l925-the members of the board of directors. Grouped about the platform were representatives of other institutions. Near the new president sat two of his predecessors, Doctors Kreinheder and Friedrich. Before him sat the students and guests of the university, all of them wondering how this new president would influence the university. The inaugural address contrasted strangely with the atmosphere in which it was delivered, for its spirit was the spirit of optimism, ln the gloom of that rainy afternoon, President Kretzmann pledged that his administration would seek for the university that greatness which is the greatness of freedom under Godg that it would pursue Truth wherever it might leadg that it would do all in its power to realize the dreams of the men who had believed in a Christian university through the first fifteen years of Lutheran Valpo.
