Placement Office
Employer Information
The University of Louisville School
of Law Placement Office serves as a
liaison between employers and job
applicants. The office provides a
clearinghouse service where inquiries
from employers are made available to
all interested students and graduates.
When an employer lists a job opening
with the Law School, the Placement
Office requests information on the title
of the position, a description of duties,
salary range, date position is open,
minimum requirements of applicants
and procedures for applying. In
addition, to stimulate interest as well
as to attract those most qualified, we
ask employers to submit a firm
resume, practice profile or similar
descriptive information for display to
our students.
The Placement Office can compile
and mail resumes of students and
alumni, provide a list of available
candidates and coordinate on-campus
interviews. We will attempt in every
way to facilitate an employer's
recruitment process; however, we will
not screen applicants nor attempt to
influence hiring decisions.
Placement Service
On-Campus Interviews
On-campus interviews are generally
held in the fall; however, they can be
scheduled at any time during the
school year with the exception of
vacation and examination periods.
Interviews may be scheduled for third
year students seeking permanent
positions and for first and second year
students interested in summer
employment. To facilitate scheduling,
contact the Placement Officer after
April 15 to reserve space for a fall
interviewing date, or at least two
weeks in advance. A placement
request form (see back page) should
be submitted to the office.

Recruiting Through Correspondence
Employers who are unable to inter­view
at the School are invited to call
or send announcements of available
positions. Employers can request that
a notice be posted on the Placement
Bulletin Board located in the main
lobby whereby employers can elect to
have resumes sent directly by the
applicants or be collected and
forwarded by the Placement Office.
Alumni Placement
The Placement Office has on file
names of University of Louisville Law
School Alumni who are presently
interested in changing professional
affiliation. Resumes from the Active
File can be forwarded to employers
upon request. The Placement Office
also notifies recent graduates and
other alumni of current job openings
through the Going Places newsletter
which is distributed monthly.
Employers have found the newsletter
useful in meeting their immediate
needs.
Follow Up
The Placement Office requests that
employers notify each student of their
decision regarding application, and
that the Placement Office be notified
when hiring has been completed.
We welcome your inquiries about
these students, encourage you to
utilize the placement services, and
invite you to visit the University of
Louisville School of Law at your
earliest convenience. For further
information, write or call:

The University of Louisville
School of Law
Background
The study of law began in Louisville
in 1846 when the state legislature
chartered the University of Louisville.
The former Jefferson School of Law
was absorbed by the University of
Louisville in 1950. Throughout its 135
year history the students, faculty and
alumni of the School of Law have
maintained a traditionally prominent
role in scholarship and leadership
within the legal community. The
University of Louisville School of Law
is accredited by the Association of
American Law Schools, the American
Bar Association, and is a member of
the National Association for Law
Placement.
Enrollment
There is currently a total enrollment
of 472 students in the day and
evening divisions. Students
representing 80 colleges and 22 states
make up the student body. The
selectivity of our admissions standards
and the demanding requirements for
matriculation combine to ensure
competence in our graduates.
Facilities
The School of Law has been in its
present location on the Belknap
Campus of the University of Louisville
since 1939 when it moved from its
downtown site. Buried beneath the
front portico of this building are the
remains of Louis Dembitz Brandeis,
Associate Justice of the United States
Supreme Court from 1916 to 1939 and
his wife. The original law building,
designed by architect Jens Frederick
Larson, was supplemented by the
construction of a major library
addition in 1974 and another addition
in 1981. The library of the Law School
consists of more than 120,000 volumes
which are selected to aid student
instruction and to promote research.
Nineteen-hundred and eighty-one saw
the completion of an expansive
classroom and office facility for the
School of Law which approximately
doubles the physical plant of the law
school. This new facility is
complemented by a complete
renovation and refurbishment of the
existing structure. The Law School
Campus includes classrooms, seminar
halls, an amphitheater, administrative
offices, a suite of offices for student
organizations, student and faculty
lounges, a darkroom and a library that
can accommodate over 300 students.
Grading System
The University of Louisville Law
School has maintained rigorous
academic standards. These standards
are reflected in the grading policy of
the school. Our ordinary or "average"
grade is a "C." The University of
Louisville has maintained high
academic standards and there has
been very little grade inflation at this
school.
Because of the rigorous grading
standards at the University of
Louisville, the grade point average of
our students may appear lower than
students with less academic
achievement at other schools.
Prospective employers may, therefore,
find it particularly helpful to compare
class rank standing of students.

Student Publications and
Programs
Journal of Family Law
The Journal of Family Law is the law
review of the University of Louisville
School of Law. The contents of the
Journal consist of student written
comments and case notes, and articles
by persons having expertise in family
law. The members of the Journal
publish four issues per year and have
complete editorial control over content.
Candidate selection is based upon
writing ability and scholastic achieve·
ment. The candidacy period lasts
approximately one year. During the
period the candidates must submit one
case note, several "recent cases" and
one student note as well as perform
tasks such as proofreading and cite­checking.
Service on the Journal is the
highest academic honor available to a
law student.
The Journal of Law and Education
The Journal of Law and Education is
published in conjunction with the
University of South Carolina Law and
Education Center. It is the foremost
publication committed exclusively to
school law.
Under the direction of Professor
Laurence W. Knowles, the University
of Louisville members of the Journal
are responsible for the research, writing
and publication of all recent cases in
education as well as preparing synopses
of recent law review articles in the area.
Louisville Law Examiner
The Louisville Law E x aminer, a
student published newspaper, serves
the law school and other members of
the legal community as a medium of
information and ideas. Under the direc­tion
of a student editor-in-chief, staff
members, derived from all three classes,
actively participate in gathering infor­mation,
writing articles, and editing
copy for the publication which is issued
eight times during the year. The
Examiner's circulation has increased to
4200 and includes all law school alumni,
the student body, various state and
local officials, and other law schools.

Moot Court Program
The purpose of the Moot Court
Program is to provide an opportunity
for training in the principles of oral
and written advocacy, to provide
nationwide exposure to second and
third year students through
participation in competitions, to
sponsor and coordinate the Henry
Pirtle and Benjamin F. Washer Moot
Court competition and to assist in the
first year writing program and
appellate advocacy program. This
program is managed by a Moot Court
Board comprised of second and third
year students.
Students from the second and third
year classes also volunteer to serve as
mentors and judges for the first year
program. Student mentors guide first
year students in the research of their
appellate briefs and assist them in
their preparation for oral arguments.
The student judges hear and critique
the first year students appellate
argument alongside practicing
attorneys and faculty members.
The School of Law is especially
proud of the recent accomplishments
of the National Moot Court and Mock
Trial teams. In 1980 competition, the
National Moot Court team advanced
to the semi-final rounds of Region IV
with an undefeated record. The Mock
Trial teams have reached the finals of
the 6th Circuit competition for the
past three years.
Legal Aid Clinical Internship and
Applied Criminal Justice
Senior students in good academic
standing are eligible to participate in
either the Legal Aid Clinical
Internship or Applied Criminal Justice
programs. These students, under the
supervision of a practicing attorney or
members of the faculty, assist clients
by counseling, investigating, preparing
legal documents, and performing all
essential preparation for trial. In
addition, these students are permited
to prosecute or defend cases in the
local court due to a special ruling of
the Kentucky Supreme Court which
sanctions approved clinical programs.
Student Organizations
Student Bar Association (SBA)
The Student Bar Association
consists of the entire student body of
the law school and serves as a liaison
between students and faculty and
administrators. The SBA is managed
by elected officers and representatives
from both the day and evening
divisions. Specialized functions are
performed by standing and ad hoc
committees composed of student
volunteers. In addition, members of
the SBA serve on various faculty
committees. The SBA is a charter
member of the American Law Student
Association, a national organization
sponsored by the American Bar
Association.
The Honor Council, under aegis of
the SBA, enforces the law school's
Honor Code. Council members are
elected from the second and third year
classes. The Honor Council seeks to
further the highest standards of legal
education and ethical conduct and
create a realization by law students
that they are carrying on a great
professional responsibility.
Louisville Law Forum
The Louisville Law Forum is an
independent student organization,
governed by an elected board of
directors, which coordinates various
existing lecture programs at the law
school. The Law Forum brings to the
local legal community distinguished
scholars, advocates and public figures
with an impact on the legal profession.
Lectures are scheduled periodically at
no charge to the public.
Women's Law Caucus
The Women's Law Caucus provides
a forum for discussion of problems
unique to female law students.
Membership is extended to all
students interested in perserving and
advancing women's legal rights. The
Caucus holds monthly meetings and
participates in regional and national
conferences.
Black American Law Students
Association (BALSA)
The Black American Law Students
Association seeks to promote academic
excellence among black law students
and to improve relations in the law
school community. Through meetings
and workshops, BALSA encourages
its members to commit themselves to
making the legal profession more
responsive to specialized needs of the
black community. BALSA also
participates in the recruiting of
competent black law students and
provides assistance to students
preparing for law school.
International Law Society
The International Law Society
encourages increased interest in and
understanding of international and
comparative law. The Society sponsors
speakers and other activities toward
this end. Membership is open to any
student having a desire to learn about
international or comparative law.
Student Legal Research Group
The Student Legal Research Group
(SLRG) is an independent organization
that provides selected law student the
opportunity to research and write legal
memoranda on actual questions of law
submitted by attorneys of Kentucky
and neighboring states. The SLRG
provides a valuable resource for
attorneys while at the same time
providing income and experience for
students.
Legal Fraternities
Three professional legal frat ernities
coexist at the law school. Members are
actively recruitied from the student
body with each fraternity emphasizing
the special advantages available to its
affiliates. Membership in legal
fraternities is conditioned upon
invitation, payment of dues and
continued good standing as a law
student. Academic and social
programs vary with each fraternity.

outstanding records in law school.
Each year the society invites a limited
number of second and third year
students, the top 5 percent and 10
percent respectively, to become
Brandeis Scholars on the basis of their
academic records. In addition to
honoring outstanding scholastic
achievements, the society endeavors to
serve the law school in order to
enhance scholastic excellence.
The society is named after Supreme
Court Justice Mr. Louis D. Brandeis,
whose bequests have considerably
enriched the quality of the law
school's academic program. The law

began donating them in 1936.
