Multi-million-dollar expansions have transformed the Levin College of Law into a state-of-the-art legal learning center. The new facilities include: a free-standing legal advocacy center with an expansive courtroom; a law library that is the largest in the Southeast and among the top 20 in the country; comfortable, modern classrooms equipped with advanced technology; and a ceremonial classroom for conferences, receptions and special sessions. The facilities are built around the Marcia Whitney Schott Courtyard, where students meet daily to exchange information, attend events and, most importantly, make lifelong friends and colleagues. STATE OF THE ART THE MARTIN H. LEVIN ADVOCACY CENTER The Martin H. Levin Advocacy Center is the core of a $6 million 19,500-squarefoot stand-alone building boasting an impressive two-story grand foyer and glass entry with an open staircase. The courtroom, now in use by UF Law students, serves a teaching function enhanced by large monitors overhead, phone and Internet connections, and tiered seating, which gives 98 students a clear view of the proceedings. The courtroom includes a bench for accommodating seven judges, a jury box and attorneys’ tables. The courtroom also features judge’s chambers and a jury deliberation room. The center, which is named in honor of Martin H. Levin (JD 88), son and former colleague of Pensacola attorney and college namesake Fredric G. Levin (JD 61), places the Levin College of Law at the forefront of major law colleges providing students with sophisticated facilities and services. 32 UF LAW
