Show \WILLIAM H. LEARYDean of tide School of LawSchool of LawTHE CURRENT year has been one of the most important in the history of the law school. The school has been listed in the group of law schools recommended to prospective law students by the American Bar Association. This means that the law school has the endorsement of the national association of American lawyers. The Association of American Law Schools, the membership of which is composed of the leading law schools of the country, including Harvard, the University of Chicago, the University of Michigan, Columbia, California, etc., has completed an inspection of our law school, and finds us qualified for admission to membership. In the near future will will be admitted to this organization, upon which occasion all of the recognition which it is possible to obtain from national organizations of lawyers and law schools will have been secured.The library facilities have been increased, in conformity with the suggestions of the American Bar Association, and the Association of American Law Schools, and now include not only the material essential for a practical working library, but also much historical and philosophical material designed to encourage research in current legal problems. A new reading room has been provided and the rooms formerly occupied by the Music Department will hereafter be turned into law class rooms. One of these rooms will be furnished in the manner of a trial courtroom, for the use of the Moot Court conducted one night each week by Justice Straup, of the Supreme Court of the State of Utah.William H.
