A Message From the DeanThe School of Law at Texas Tech completed its first decade ofoperation having accumulated many assets. The physical radii·ties are second to none in the country, whether considered froman aesthetic or a functional viewpoint. The library provides thetools for research of the law, learning the law, and practicinglaw. However, the most important assets of any school are peopleand their ideas.The people who contribute so much to the law school includethe Board of Regents. the University administration, the facultyand staff of the law school itself, the growing number of loyalalumni, and the students. The support of the Regents and the administration,including President Mackey, who is a member ofthe law faculty, could not be greater. The faculty has been chosenfor their ability to teach and relate to students, but excellentteaching is not their only virtue. Scholarly research and publication,both oral and written; preparation of new developments inlegislation; representation of indigents; consultation with practicingattorneys; participation in bar committees and other activities;and faculty work within the University community areamong their other contributions ofgreat importance. The increasingnumber of alumni are demonstrating in the best way possible--theirperformance as lawyers--that this is a first-classschool. Although mentioned last, the students are obviously notthe last in importance. An intelligent, inquisitive, participatingstudent body contributes to its own learning process, and thoseattributes are increasingly visible in each year's entering class.The basic concept that will continue to govern the law schoolin future decades is that its purpose is to prepare students tofunction as lawyers. Many other things are learned, and shouldbe learned, in law school. but if a graduate cannot function as alawyer, his or her time has been wasted. If you want to enjoyyour legal education, to contribute to it by your own hard work,and to graduate capable of entering the practice of law confidentof your ability, then we want you as a student at Texas Tech.Frank W. Elliott

Texas Tech first opened its doors in the fall of 1925 with sixbuildings and an enrollment of 910 students. Because of itsunique location in the fertile South Plains and because it wasquick to assume a leading role among schools in the Southwest,the institution has prospered and grown and can now lay claimto being a major university with demonstrated strength in thearts, humanities. and sciences. It contains six instructional colleges---AgriculturaJSciences, Arts and Sciences, Business Adminislration,Education, Engineering, Home Economics--and aGraduate School, in addition to the School of Law. It functionsas do its counterparts in Austin, College Station, and Houstonunder the guidance of the Coordinating Board, Texas College andUniversity System.The Texas Tech University School of Medicine, a separate institution,was authorized by the legislature, and the legislationwas signed by the governor on May 27, 1969. The first studentswere admitted in the fall of 1972.Since it was established over forty years ago, Texas Tech hasgrown to an institution with a student body of over 22,000 and aresident faculty drawn from all parts of the world. Many specialfacilities for interdisciplinary research are at hand, such as thecomputer center, the Southwest Collection, and the library's expandingcollection of material in the general areas of the humanities.The University's most recent interest in research isreflected in its International Center for Arid and Semi-Arid LandStudies which focuses the contributions of various academic disciplineson problems of these large segments of the earth's sur·face.Texas Tech is located in Lubbock, a city of nearly 180,000 population,the commercial and financial "hub" of the prosperousSouth Plains region of Texas. The city offers an unusually finevariety of cultural opportunities and, at an altitude of 3,250 feet,has a dry and invigorating climate.11The University Community

The School of LawIn 1963 the Board of Directors of Texas Tech provided for theaddition of a School of Law. Subsequently, this action was approvedby the Coordinating Board, Texas College and UniversitySystem.Instruction commenced in the fall of 1967 with a first yearclass. In subsequent years, the school has seen its first graduatesand the broadening of its curriculum to reflect the University'scommitment to excellence in legal education. Graduates of theSchool of Law receive the J.D. {Doctor of Jurisprudence} degree.The School of Law is fully accredited. Final approval by theSupreme Court of Texas under the Rules Governing Admissionto the Bar of Texas was granted in 1968. The school met the re·quirements for final approval by the American Bar Associationat the earliest date possible and that approval was formally con·ferred at the annual meeting in August. 1970. As a result, graduatesof the School of Law are qualified to apply for admission topractice in most states in the United States.The faculty maintains an active interest and participation inthe affairs of the Association of American Law Schools, and applicationfor institutional membership in that organization wasacted upon favorably at the annual meeting of the association inDecember, 1969.The objective of the faculty of the School of Law is to trainyoung men and women for the practice of law anywhere in theUnited States, whether it be as advocate, counselor. judge. orlaw teacher, in accordance with the highest traditions of professionalresponsibility. At Ihe same time recognition is given 10 theuse of law as a stepping·stone to a career in government, politics,or business. The curriculum and the methods of instruction aredesigned to develop in the students their highest potential.whatever may have been their reasons for entering the school.Texas Tech University does not discriminate on the basis ofrace. sex, color. religion, creed, national origin, or handicap in itseducational programs, admissions policies, employment, or otherUniversity-administered programs. Any inquiries or complaintspursuant to Title IX or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of1973 should be directed to Dr. Robert H. Ewalt at the Office ofStudent Affairs, 213 Administration Building, telephone (806)742·2131.Handicapped students attending the School of Law will findnumerous barrier-free facilities. The entrance is free of steps andall floors to the classrooms and library are serviced by elevators.Special programs designed to improve the services available tophysically handicapped and visually impaired students aredirected within the Office of Student Life.13

14State offices of the Commission for the Blind and the TexasRehabilitation Commission are located on the Texas Techcampus.The Law LibraryAn essential ingredient of the study of law is learning bydoing; hence, no law school can aspire to a position of excel·lence without an outstanding library. A law school's libraryfacilities have been equated to the laboratory facilities associatedwith the physical sciences.For maximum use by the student body, the library is openover one hundred hours per week. Multiple copies of selectmonographs, treatises, and reports are available so that numerousstudents may study the same problem at the same time.In general, the present collection of over 125,000 volumes maybe divided into three basic categories: (1) Sources of the law,including case reports, federal and state statutes, and administrativedecisions and regulations; (2) Research aids, such as digests,encyclopedias, and indexes; (3) Commentaries on the law,including treatises and legal periodicals.The School of Law currently is subscribing to more than 1,025periodicals. Complete sets of over 300 are on the shelves. Thelibrary has many loose-leaf services of interest to students andpractitioners alike and is expanding its holdings in such areasas poverty, consumer protection, and environmental law. Theschool's law library is the principal repository for legal materialswithin a radius of more than 300 miles.In addition, the main University library, a government depository,contains a substantial number of legal documents and othermaterials closely related to law which are available to studentsin the School of Law as a supplement to the law library.Texas Tech Law School FoundationIncorporated on October 16, 1967, the Law School Foundationwas conceived as a vehicle for expanding the law schoof'scontribution to the life of the profession and the community. Inestablishing the foundation as a non-profit entity, its sponsorsenvisioned the foundation as a device to develop the school'sfull I?otential, especially in the years immediately follOWing itsCreatIon. Just as the Bar has long realized its obligation as a communityleader, the School of Law must assume its obligationsboth within and without the university community. It is anticipatedthat the school's response to this challenge will justify theexpectations of those who are at work making the Law SchoolFoundation a viable force.Annual Giving ProgramThe Foundation conducts an annual Giving Program throughwhich alumni and friends of the School of Law may contribute toprograms of support undertaken by the Foundation. Areas ofsupport by the Foundation include the scholarship and loan programs,moot court, law review, alumni and bar relations, continuinglegal education, and faculty recruitment.

Scholarship Donors or membersof the Dean's Council.Fellows of the FoundationWithin the Foundation, attorneys and others who have madea major commitment to aid the school in achieving excellencehave become Fellows of the Foundation. The revenues from theircontributions are utili7.ed as needed to enrich the law schoolexperience beyond those activities supported by state funds.Law Review AssociationRecently added to the Foundation is the Texas Tech Law ReviewAssociation comprised of fanner staff members of the LowReview in good standing at the time of their graduation. TheAssociation was organized to promote legal scholarship throughservice on the Texas Tech Low Review, encourage continuedinterest and support from fanner staff members, and providefinancial support for the regular activities and special projects ofthe Law Review.15
