Our commitment to the core mission of academic excellence is unwavering, but change is sometimes inescapable. The program demystifies parts of legal education and allows students to make the most of their time at the Law School. Our Pre-Orientation Program provides a group of incoming 1Ls a brief introduction to our distinctive pedagogy.

We wish every student to take full advantage of the intellectual richness of our Law School community. With the opportunity to climb such intellectual heights, every student faces a learning curve (as each of us may remember from our own 1L experiences). It will support students’ own research on animal law and thus expand the boundaries of knowledge in this emerging field. In memory of Rachel, Martha generously established the Rachel Nussbaum Animal Law Scholarship. It, too, embodies interdisciplinarity at the University, drawing together law and philosophy and confronting complex problems. Nussbaum worked on portions of the book with her late daughter, Rachel Nussbaum Wichert, an animal rights lawyer. Nussbaum took her philosophic framework, the capabilities approach, in an innovative direction in her new book, Justice for Animals, by extending it to striving and sentient animals. The intellectual ambitions of our faculty members remain just as high today, as does their commitment to sharing their enthusiasm for ideas with our students. From their Law School educations in the 1970s under intellectual giants in the field of law and economics, to presentations and robust discussions of their ideas at Chicago workshops in the 1980s, they highlighted how scholars at the Law School advance ideas: seeking indisciplinarity, challenging accepted wisdom, and inviting criticism. Presenters at the conference praised Easterbrook and Fischel for posing questions and developing frameworks that became the foundations of scholarship in corporate law.įrank and Dan recounted how they developed their ideas in true Chicago fashion. Fischel’s The Economic Structure of Corporate Law. Prominent corporate law scholars, our Center for Law and Finance, and the new student-led University of Chicago Business Law Review convened to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the publication of Frank H. These values have long guided our Law School, as a conference this past spring underscored.
