Biographical / Historical Note

On October 26 and 27 of 2001, The University of Virginia School of Law celebrated its 175th anniversary by convening the conference "Law Schools, Lawyers, and the Future of American Law." The School hoped that this occasion would be an opportunity for law professors and practitioners to discuss and debate the future of legal education in the United States. It featured four panels and two addresses. Thomas H. Jackson, a former dean of the School of Law, gave one address, and Supreme Court Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist gave the other.
