Alumni & Friends

Welcome friends and graduates of our JD/LLB and graduate programs!

Many of you have maintained contact and are well aware of the changes that have been taking place in the U of C's Faculty of Law in recent years. We have moved from our former LLB enrollment of 70 students per year to our current JD enrolment of 100 students and have also increased our LLM contingent. We are planning to hire several new professors to ensure that one of the real attractions of our law school -- the small class size and closest association as possible between professor and student -- will be maintained. But the increase allows us to offer a more comprehensive curriculum, with more choice of courses. Upgraded technology and improved library collection and facilities ensure our current classes an excellent learning experience. The increased class size also made our relatively new quarters in Murray Fraser Hall a tight fit, and we needed to renovate the 15-year old building to accomodate our growing programs and student population.
