University of Maryland School of Law : Catalog, 1924

the statutes in force in Maryland, and to peculiarities of the law in
that State, where there are such; but the reason for these statutory
modifications and local peculiarities are explained so that the student
may in a short time acquaint himself with the local peculiarities
of the law in any State in which he may practice.
Readings from text-books and adjudicated cases will be assigned
on the subjects treated of in the lectures.
The full course of study extends over three years and as the
Faculty Council is satisfied that students, who have not made considerable
progress in the law before entering the Law School, would
do themselves and the School an injury by attempting to graduate
in a shorter period, no student will be permitted to receive the degree
of LL.B. until after three full years of study at this school, or,
if admitted to Advanced Standing, until after at least one year of
residence and study at this school.
