Becoming a National Law School, 1920-1960

In this episode, UVA Law Professor G. Edward White takes listeners back to 1972 when he first arrived in Charlottesville to teach law. White situates his personal experiences as a former clerk for Chief Justice Earl Warren and as an early scholar in legal history within the broader transformation of American legal education in the mid-twentieth century. As a member of the faculty for over fifty years, White provides an eyewitness account of the Law School's development from a predominantly southern law school to a national one.
