General Statement
Indiana University. By every measure of strength among modern universities, Indiana University ranks near the top. It is old enough (founded in 1820) to have great stability and great traditions. It is large enough (eleventh in the nation) to offer a breadth of instruction seldom equaled. Yet, through a carefully organized system of counsel- ing, it gives personal and individual attention to each student.
The Indiana faculty, including scholars of national and inter- national reputation, offers instruction and training in research in hundreds of subjects. The University libraries, which include some of the nation's most important collections in a number of fields, contain more than 4,000,000 pieces.
On all its campuses Indiana University has sought to preserve the informality and friendliness of a small school. As the result, no student becomes "lost" in the transition from high school to univer- sity. This has been accomplished through the successful faculty- student counseling program of the Junior Division (the ":icademic home" of all freshmen) and the individualized programs in all the dormitories.
More than twenty different offices at Indiana University provide services designed to give each student individual attention. These in- clude aid in acquiring correct study and reading habits, health care, planning for special courses of study, part-time employment, student loans and scholarships, aid in finding accommodations, and job place- ment service on graduation.
Since Indiana University is composed of several different schools or divisions, students receive a wide variety of opportunities for study and training. These areas cover the fields of the allied health sciences;
arts and sciences; business; dentistry; education; health, physical edu- cation, and recreation; law; library science; medicine; music; nursing;
optometry; and social service.
The College of Arts and Sciences has one of the largest enroll- ments and faculties of any college in Indiana. The School of Business, by national ranking, is a leader in a wide variety of business training courses. The School of Music is outstanding among such schools at state universities. A large percentage of the administrators and teachers in the state's public school system have been trained in the School of Education. The School of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation offers many new courses in the expanding field of health and recrea- tion. Through the facilities of the Medical Center at Indianapolis, the School of Medicine (fifth in enrollment), the School of Den- tistry, and the School of Nursing offer exceptional opportunities for training. The School of Law, both at Bloomington and at Indianapolis, is recognized as outstanding. The Division of Allied Health Sciences offers several programs leading to degrees in the various fields associ- ated with medicine and dentistry. The Division of Optometry and
(7)
the Division of Library Science offer the only accredited programs in_ Indiana leading to degrees in the fields of optometry and library science.
The Graduate School at Indiana attracts scholars from hundreds of other institutions, both in the United States and abroad. Specialized study is available on the highest academic levels and in all major fields of study.
Though Bloomington is a small city, Indiana University is able to provide cultural advantages seldom duplicated in metropolitan areas. These include outstanding symphony orchestras, world-famous musicians and lecturers, Broadway dramatic and musical produc- tions, ballet, etc. Many students enjoy participating in the activities of the more than forty musical units on the campus, including the philharmonic orchestra, band, chorus, and many other smaller ensem- bles. Others become interested in the programs of the campus pub- lications such as the daily newspaper, or in the self-government groups, religious organizations, and the many hobby clubs.
Within easy driving distance from the Bloomington campus are immense state forest preserves and three state parks, which are avail- able for recreational purposes. The campus itself is famous for its natural beauty, as is the Southern Indiana area in which the Univer- sity is located. Extensive space on the campus is provided for outdoor and indoor sports and games.
Housing for students has been a major undertaking of the Uni- versity. Dormitories, with accommodations available at a wide range of prices, are provided for more than half of the students enrolled.
The buildings are modern and include facilities which offer opportuni- ties for comfort beyond the average "room and board."
Indiana University is constituted by law as the head of the state's public school system. It is supported by the people of Indiana, who have always been alert to the finest in educational opportunities. The University has not been content to rest on past attainments. Perhaps that is one reason why it is one of the fastest growing universities among the thirty largest and best American institutions.
A VENERABLE TRADmoN
In 1838 the General Assembly of the state of Indiana, in changing the name of Indiana College to Indiana University, directed that education be provided in the science of law. The Indiana Uni- versity School of Law was opened in 1842 and became the first state university law school in the Midwest. In the official announcement of its establishment, the Board of Trustees declared that the School should be one in which the student shall be so trained that he shall never, in the attorney, for get the scholar and the gentleman. In this tradition the School has operated for more than one hundred years.
It is a charter member of the Association of American Law Schools and is approved by the American Bar Association.
In the summer of 1944, the Indiana University School of Law and the Indiana Law School of Indianapolis were consolidated. The latter school represented earlier consolidations of the following Indianapolis
SCHOOL OF LA w 9 schools: the Indianapolis College of Law, the American Central Law School, the Benjamin Harrison Law School, and the Indiana Law School. The alumni of all these institutions have been incorporated into the alumni body of Indiana University. As a result of this merger, the Indianapolis Division of the School of Law began to function on September 1, 1944. It is now located at 102 West Michigan Street.
The Indianapolis Division is operated for the benefit of students who are unable to spend their entire time in the study of law and who, therefore, can carry only a part of the studies regarded as the normal load for the full-time student in the Bloomington Division. The two Divisions referred to above constitute a single School of Law, and the instructional staffs of the two Divisions constitute the faculty of the School of Law of Indiana University. Consequently, the same stand- ards are maintained in both Divisions, and the same degrees are con- ferred. The administrative functions of the School of Law are per- formed by the Dean of the School. The Associate Dean of the School of Law will share in the administration of both Divisions of the School, with special responsibility for the Indianapolis Division.
The total enrollment in the School of Law (both at Bloomington and at Indianapolis) for the academic year, 1961-62, was 609.
THE STUDY OF LAW
. The individual who plans to study law should consider the possi- bilities of the legal profession as clearly and definitely as he can in order to decide whether they suit his purposes in life. Aside from administrative work in business, labor, social seryice organizations, or public agencies, to which law study often leads, lawyers in their professional capacity often engage in private practice, alone or in firms, in small communities and large; they serve in salaried positions in business corporations, banks, insurance companies, trade associations, the courts, and government offices, and shift from the practice of law to elected or appointive office and back again. The good lawyer must, of course, expect to make an average living from his profession, but should not anticipate great wealth. His principal reward comes rather from the interest of his work and from the opportunities for effective civic and human service which legal activity offers, or should offer, in the society in which he lives, and of which he is a part. With patience, courage, integrity, and willingness to work, he will find that his pro- fession affords him a place of respect among his fellow men. as well as a means of livelihood. Law training for these ends is difficult but not impossible. It requires a good collegiate background of oral and written expression, an understanding of history, a familiarity with science, and an appreciation of the social, political, and economic problems of our society. No single course of prelegal study can supply these elements for all students, and they may, indeed, be compounded in varying proportions. The student's pursuit of genuine intellectual interests, of whatever nature so long as not too narrow in range, is to be preferred over any prescription that might be written.
The cultured man who conforms to no set pattern makes the best lawyer.
The study of law involves more than attendance in classes and the successful completion of examinations. It calls especially for enrich- ment of the student's knowledge and capacity through extensive read- ing and writing; and no student should deprive himself of this aspect of his education because of outside employment or for other reasons.
Law deals with all of life, and the judgments that must be reached in formulating and administering it involve wide ranges of human experience. Hence each student should plan to attend a selection of lectures, concerts, and other performances which are offered in the University, in addition to the attention he gives to his courses and to his collateral study. To do so is not inconsistent with strenuous professional preparation.
The curriculum of the School of Law has the following purposes, which the student should bear in mind in making the selections open to him:
The study of the law involves both a knowledge of legal rules and their application to individual, corporate, or governmental prob- lems. For a long time, it was assumed, at least so far as legal educa- tion was concerned, that these problems could only be solved by litigation. Thus, the "case system" and appellate court advocacy dominated instructional methods. Today, however, the modern law firm gauges its success by its ability to avoid litigation and at the same time to insure the legality of its clients' transactions.
Recognizing that the practice of law in our fast-moving, indus- trialized society requires many diverse skills, the School of Law as early as 1940 expanded its curriculum. First, a required course in senior research was introduced; then, in 1948, a beginning course in research was required of all first-year students. In the same year, a required seminar program was established. These were attempts to individualize instruction and to give proper emphasis to the non- courtroom problems of lawyers.
Under these programs the School of Law made substantial pro- gress, but a shortage of instructional personnel prevented total realiza- tion of its objectives. In 1956, the Inland Container Corporation Foundation, Inc., of which Mr. Herman C. Krannert is president, granted to the Bloomington Division $250,000 over a five-year period, thus making possible the inauguration of a modern program for full- time law students. The grant permitted the application of the scien- tific method of the teaching and practice of law through laboratory exposition of the techniques of practice. Graduates of the School of Law who have participated in the program are trained in not only traditional legal analysis, but in legal planning, negotiation, drafting, and advocacy as well. The primary focus of the laboratory courses is the translation of legal analysis and policy determination into docu- ments or action containing sanctions which insure their effectiveness.
Paralleling the substantive courses throughout the three years of training, two hours in legal techniques are required in each semester.
To permit instruction on as personalized and individual basis as possible, six full-time graduate teaching associates work with the students throughout the three year program in a tutorial capacity.
ScHOOL OF UW 11 With the end of the experimental period, the costs of which were paid by the Foundation, the University has assumed the instructional and secretarial costs of the program, and has assumed the responsi- bility for supplies and equipment used in the program. However, the Foundation is continuing to furnish a number of $1,000 scholarships, known as the Herman C. Krannert Scholarships, which are available for first-, second-, and third-year students.
In the case of scholarship awards, the donor believes that accept- ance of one of these scholarships entails a moral obligation of repay- ment, and invites the recipient, when he has achieved success and security in the profession, to provide, by contributions, scholarships for future law students.
The School of Law believes that the continuation of this pro- gram, as it continually evolves to meet the ever-changing needs of the times, and as its benefits may be incorporated, wherever possible, into the curriculum for the part-time students of the Indianapolis Division, will enable the school to give to all of its future graduates a better and more realistic legal education, and that it will enable them to make the transition from student to practitioner with less difficulty.
At the Indianapolis Division, a series of integrated workshop lectures is given by members of the Indianapolis Bar Association.
At the Bloomington Division, similar lectures are given by various members of the State Bar Association. These lectures are designed to give practical information and assistance to law students and young lawyers.
The program of the Bloomington Division is based on the as- sumption that the student will devote substantially full time to his studies. Unless he does so, he will not receive all the benefit he should from his period in law school.
Because the first-year student needs to do highly concentrated work in order to become oriented to law study, he should not com- mence the academic year unless he is reasonably assured that he can complete it without withholding significant amounts of time from his studies. Full-time study after the first year is not inconsistent with a strictly limited amount of outside employment. Accordingly, the faculty does not advise, in case of need, against employment during the second and third years, if it is not unusually fatiguing and does not divert more than approximately fifteen hours a week from the time available for study. Employment of this variety is offered by the University and some of the organizations in the University com- munity.
Students who need financial help should seek advice through the office of the Dean. That office will be glad to investigate available loan funds and other possible means of assistance, and to suggest arrangements by which the student may avoid impairing his educa- tion by assuming outside obligations.
FEES AND EXPENSES
Fees. The basic fees at the Bloomington Division are $9.25 for each credit hour of work a semester for legal residents of Indiana, and $18 for each credit hour of work a semester for nonresidents.
Basic fees for both residents and nonresidents in the summer session are $9 for each credit hour.
The basic fees at the Indianapolis Division are $18 for each credit hour of work a semester for the first five hours of work, and
$11 for each credit hour of work above five hours, with a maximum fee of $120 in any one semester. Basic fees for the Indianapolis Division summer session are $18 for each credit hour of work for the first three hours, and $11 for each credit hour of work above three, with a maximum of $72 for the summer session.
In addition to the above rates per credit hour, all students en- rolled in seven credit hours or more will pay a health service fee of
$12.50 per semester. Students enrolled in one to six credit hours have the option of obtaining identical health service by paying a fee of $15 per semester.
All fees are subject to change by action of the Board of Trustees.
Books and Supplies. New books will cost a student approxi- mately $60 a semester at the Bloomington Division and $45 a semester at the Indianapolis Division. If secondhand books are used, the cost will be approximately $15 to $20 at either Division.
Cost of Living. The amount a student expends for board and room, laundry, incidental expenses, and entertainment is primarily a matter of personal choice. Expenses for room and board on the Bloomington campus in the Halls of Residence vary from $635 to
$900 for the academic year. Rates for married students vary from
$50 a month for a modern, one-bedroom trailer to $114.50 a month for a furnished, two-bedroom apartment in the new and completely air conditioned Campus View House. Write to Director of Halls of Residence, 801 North Jordan, Indiana University, Bloomington, In- diana, for detailed information and application forms.
For rooms in private homes, inquiry should be directed to the Central Housing Office, 801 North Jordan, Indiana University, Bloom- ington, Indiana. The Office keeps up-to-date files listing rooms for both men and women. Students rooming in the Indiana Memorial Union, Campus Club, or in private homes may take their meals in the Commons, Cafeteria, and Tudor Room in the Indiana Memorial Union, or in restaurants.
Inasmuch as many of the students on the Indianapolis campus will be married and maintaining homes, comparable figures for living costs seem impractical.
Payment for room and board in the University dormitories at Bloomington may be made in full or in two, four, or eight equal install- ments which can be scheduled to avoid payments in the months when fees are paid. This will spread payments over ten months, allowing Sep- tember and January for fees, and August, October, November, De- cember, February, March, April, and May for dormitory payments.
This plan, "Pay as You Learn," has been established to provide an
$cHOOL OF LAW 13 easier way to pay basic expenses. The University also cooperates with several banks which have established finance plans for students. These plans generally provide that the bank will advance the major portion of a student's expenses each year for four years, with repayment being made to the bank in equal monthly installments over a six- or eight- year period. More complete information may be obtained by writing to the Bursar's Office, Bryan Administration Building, Indiana Uni- versity, Bloomington, Indiana.
LAW LmRARY
The library of the Bloomington Division contains more than 95,000 volumes representing the more important Anglo-American materials necessary for study and research. The collection of reported American cases is almost complete. Session law collections are com- plete for twenty-four states and territories; there are recent sets of compiled statutes for all. The periodical collection is one of the strongest sections in the library. Over 500 titles are currently received and nearly all of the back files are complete.
English cases, statutes, and texts are well represented. Similar materials are being received from a number of the British possessions and dominions.
Briefs and records of United States Supreme Court decisions on microfilm and microcards are available at both Divisions. They cover the period from the 1938 Term to date.
The library of the Indianapolis Division contains 67,000 volumes and is growing rapidly. The collection includes the reports, statutes, periodicals, and treatises of this country as well as some of the leading British sets. This constitutes one of the leading libraries of any ex- clusively evening division in the United States.
The figures in the above paragraphs giving numbers of volumes were those of June 30, 1962.
The library is a part of the general University horary system, and the facilities of other libraries of the University are available for the use of law students. Close contact is maintained between the law library in Indianapolis and the law library on the Bloomington cam- pus. A liberal borrowing system between the two libraries is the policy.
The School of Law building at Indianapolis is within walking distance of other Indianapolis libraries, which include the Indiana University Downtown Center Library, the Indiana State Library, and the central building of the Indianapolis Public Library.
The University maintains equally adequate working or teaching libraries for both Divisions, but the library of the Bloomington Division is the repository for collections for the research needs of the faculty of both Divisions.
HONORS AND RECOGNITION
The Indiana Law Journal. The Indiana Law Journal is pub- lished four times a year under the editorial supervision of the Indiana University School of Law. The student board of editors is composed
of second-, third-, and fourth-year students selected on the basis of scholastic average. Students may receive the equivalent of two hours of credit for each semester of satisfactory work on the Journal.
Work on the Journal excuses the student from the required seminar course and the course in legal techniques.
A high premium is placed on Journal work by law students and by the faculty. Only student work of exceptional quality is pub- lished in the Indiana Law Journal. Work on the Journal is regarded as one of the best elements in a legal education, because it stimulates creative ability, thoroughness of research, and resourcefulness in legal study.
Service upon outstanding law reviews, such as the Indiana Law ] ournal, has long been recognized by leading law firms of the country as of first importance in the selection of recent graduates for such firms.
Graduation with Honors. A student who has complied with the requirements for the degree LL.B. or J.D., and who has attained an outstanding scholastic average in work done in the School of Law, may be graduated with distinction, with high distinction, or with highest distinction. The honors conferred are noted upon the diploma and the Commencement program.
Order of the Coif. A student who has fulfilled the requirements for the LL.B. or the J.D. degree and who is in the upper 10 per cent of those graduated during the calendar year may be elected to the Order of the Coif.
Assistantships. A number of assistantships carrying substantial stipends will .be available for superior and other deserving students.
Further information is available on inquiry; concerning assistant- ships for those working toward the LL.M. degree, see page 21.
Scholarships and Awards. Scholarships fall generally into two classes: those awarded only to students in the School of Law and those awarded to students in the University without regard to their particular educational objectives. Scholarships in the first category are made available through the generosity of friends of the Law School. In this category are the Herman C. Krannert Scholarships made by the Inland Container Corporation Foundation, ~nc.; the annual Charles A. Halleck Award, made possible by a gift from Mr.
and Mrs. Robert V. New; the annual Robert W. McConnell Me- morial Scholarship, made possible by a gift from Mrs. Anna M.
Huston; the Claire Hudson Scott Award, consisting of the income from a gift of $15,000 from Smith William Storey; the Banta Award, consisting of the income from a gift of $5,000 contributed by the Banta Foundation in memory of Dean David D. Banta; the Gardner Award, consisting of the income from $10,000 given by Colonel Ken- neth Gardner; the Gavit and Horack Awards; and general scholar- ships contributed by Daniel James. While awards in the second cate- gory, those open to all students of the University, are not administered under the supervision of the School of Law, the School of Law will furnish full information concerning them upon request.

STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS
The entire law student body in each Division was organized a number of years ago at the suggestion of both students and faculty.
The primary purpose was to fill a need for a closer student-faculty relationship and understanding. The entire student body at Bloom- ington constitutes the Student Bar Association, and the entire student body at Indianapolis constitutes the Law Club. The officers of each group have a close relationship with the Dean, Associate Dean, and respective faculties of the two Divisions, and maintain close relation- ships between the two groups.
Each group conducts a yearly orientation program designed to orient beginning students of the two Divisions in the operation of the School. In addition, the groups sponsor a limited number of social events at each Division during the year.
At each Division are chapters of national professional legal fraternities, whose members voluntarily invite selected new students to membership. These organizations also develop programs to supple- ment and implement the programs of the School, the Student Bar Association, and the Law Club.
Admission and Graduation
ADMISSION PROCEDURE
Each applicant for admission to the Indiana University School of Law must secure an application form from the office of one of the School's Divisions. An applicant may apply to only one Division.
Simultaneous applications to both Divisions will not be considered.
A weekly check between the Recorders of the two Divisions will reveal duplicate applications. When the requisite application form is filled out and returned to either Division, the applicant must fur- nish an official transcript of the complete undergraduate record from each college or university attended. The fact that such a record or transcript is on file in the Office of Records and Admissions of In- diana University does not fulfill this requirement. Under the rules of the Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar of the American Bar Association, the official accrediting agency of all accre- dited law schools in the United States, each such law school must have these records in its own files.
An application fee of $10 is required of all new applicants and must accompany the application. No application fee will be required if the applicant has previously attended Indiana University as a regularly admitted student, or has attended a division off campus and completed 12 or more semester hours.
Each applicant must have a baccalaureate degree with at least ninety hours of theory work and an academic record acceptable to the Committee on Admissions, or, he must have completed all the requirements of his undergraduate college so that college will consider the successful completion of his first thirty hours of law as acceptable electives to make him eligible for the granting of his baccalaureate degree. A letter must be sent from the proper official of the college or university to the office of the appropriate Division of the Indiana University School of Law stating that the applicant will be entitled to a bachelor's degree from that institution upon the satisfactory com- pletion of the first year of law school work.
In addition to the application and the transcripts of previous work, a transfer student from another law school must furnish a cer- tificate of good standing from the dean of the school from which the student is transferring. Beginning students are admitted in June and September. An eight-week summer session is offered at both Divisions.
Requests for a Bulletin of the School of Law and inquiries as to admission should be addressed either to the School of Law, Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, or to the School of Law, Indiana University, 102 West Michigan Street, Indianapolis 4, Indiana.
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
To be eligible for admission, an applicant must: ( 1) have received an A.B. or B.S. or equivalent degree, or (2) be eligible to receive such a degree upon the basis of his Law School work: provided as to both
(16)
SCHOOL OJI' LAW 17 (1) and (2), (A) that the degree has been earned or the prelaw work done at an institution whose graduates are eligible for unqualified and unconditional admission to the Graduate School of Indiana Uni- versity, and (B) that the applicant has completed at least ninety semester hours of acceptable theory work in subjects applicable to- ward a bachelor's degree in any school which would be acceptable in the College of Arts and Sciences or in the School of Business of Indiana University.
On the basis of each credit hour of A=4, B=3, C=2, D=l, F=O, the quality of an applicant's work must equal a credit-point average of 2.6. All applicants seeking admission in June, 1963, or thereafter, will be admitted assuming they have complied with all other requirements, if they have a cumulative academic average in their undergraduate work in substantive courses of 2.6, or better.
Applications of all students who have satisfied all other requirements, but whose cumulative undergraduate average is below 2.6, will be referred to an Admissions Committee for its consideration. Credit- point averages will be computed on the basis of all theory work undertaken; the same course taken twice will be counted twice.
A limited number of applicants may be admitted who do not satisfy the above requirements, but such admissions are rare and are within the discretion of the faculty.
Law School Admission Test. Each applicant for admission is required to take the Law School Admission Test given by Educa- tional Testing Service, 20 Nassau Street, Princeton, New Jersey, and application blanks and information concerning the time and place of holding the examinations may be obtained from them. This test is given four times each year at one hundred or more examination cen- ters situated throughout the country, including Indiana University.
The fee is $12.
Auditors. Members of the bar and persons not eligible for regu- lar admission may enroll as "auditors" in courses in which they are interested. An auditor does not receive credit and may not participate in classroom discussion.
Transfer Students; Advanced Standing. Students transferring from another law school to the Indiana University School of Law are admitted only on a conditional status. The completion of one semester or summer session in the Bloomington Division, or the completion of at least ten hours of work in the Indianapolis Division, with at least a 1.6 credit average removes the conditional status.
Students will not be accepted as beginning students or with ad- vanced standing who are ineligible for readmission to the law school last attended. Exceptions may be made, but only after consultation with the school previously attended. A scholastically deficient student eligible for readmission at another school may be accepted, but only on the same conditions as would be imposed upon him for readmission at the first school.
• Records from achool1 111ln1r a different aradins l)'atem will be .... a1uated 1imll.,.b.
L
A transfer student who would have been eligible for admission to the School of Law at Indiana University may be admitted to advanced standing upon presentation of a certified transcript of his record from a law school approved by the American Bar Associa- tion. Satisfactory completion of the first-year requirements in such an institution will be accepted in lieu of the required first-year work in the School of Law, but no more than thirty hours of credit will be allowed for such first-year work. Advanced credit will be allowed only for work of the standard required for graduation at the institu- tion where the work was done. No more than fifty-four hours of advanced standing will be allowed in any case.
All candidates for the degree LL.B. or J.D. from the School of Law must have taken and must have successfully completed their last twenty-si.'C hours of work toward the degree in the School of Law.
All applicants seeking admission in June, 1966, or thereafter must have a baccalaureate degree from a duly accredited college or university. In earning the degree, the student must have completed at least ninety semester hours of acceptable theory work. For detailed information concerning the combined degree program, which will be effective until 1966, students should check with the undergraduate department or school involved.
GRADUATION
Bachelor of Laws. The faculty of the School of Law reserves the right to make changes at any time in graduation requirements and in its rules in regard to the exclusion of students for scholastic deficiency.
Law school students are subject to exclusion and discipline by the University authorities for violation of the University standards for stu- dent conduct. The faculty of the School of Law reserves the right to exclude a student or deny a degree to one guilty of serious misconduct.
To continue in school, a student is required to meet qualitative credit-average requirements. The Faculty Rules on this subject and on the subject of readmission after exclusion are published separately. A copy will be furnished upon request.
Eighty semester hours of credit in law and six semesters of resi- dence in the Bloomington Division, or eight semesters of residence in the Indianapolis Division are required for graduation.
In the Bloomington Division, the following courses are required of every student: All first-year courses; one seminar course; one of the four following courses: English Legal History, International Law, Jurisprudence, or Seminar in Ethical Values and Legal Systems; and the work in the Legal Techniques program. Either Legal Techniques V or VI may be satisfied by the taking of a seminar in which a research paper is required.
In the Indianapolis Division, certain hours of the total required for graduation must be devoted to particular subjects. Within those areas the student has in some cases been given a choice of alternative courses. At each registration, each student should check with his ad- viser about his alternative courses.
ScHOOL op LAw 19 In the Bloomington Division in the first year, a total of twenty- five hours must be taken and passed in order to earn full residenc.e credit. Subsequent to the first year, a total of ten hours must be taken and passed during a regular semester and five hours during a summer session in order to earn full residence credit. A lesser amount of earned course credit earns proportionate residence credit, except that during his last semester or summer session a senior student must carry and pass at least ten or five hours of work, respectively. In the In- dianapolis Division, no more than ten hours of work may be taken in any one semester and residence credit will be allowed proportionately for a lesser number of hours. However, in case of transfer students from one Division to another, adjustments may be made.
In both Divisions, the amount of law school work to be under- taken by each student, both maximum and minimum, is subject to the approval of the Dean and the faculty. In the Indianapolis Division, a student engaging in any outside work or other activity must disclose the nature and amount of such work or activity prior to registration, and students are obligated to notify the Administrative Office of any change of circumstances during the course of a semester or term. In the Bloomington Division, students may be required to report the nature and amount of their employment.
Doctor of Jurisprudence. The degree Doctor of Jurisprudence (J.D.) may be conferred upon those students who have complied with the following rules:
The candidate on registering in this or another law school shall have the degree A.B., or an equivalent degree, from Indiana Univer- sity or from some school of equal rank.
The candidate shall complete the required curriculum for the de- gree LL.B. and shall attain therein a record of superior character.
IN COMPLETES AND WITHDRAWALS
Incomplete Grades.* The grade of Incomplete may be given only where the completed portion of a student's work in the course is of passing quality. A student must remove an Incomplete within two semesters, or one summer session and one semester, of subsequent residence in the University. If the student fails to remove the Incom- plete grade during the time allowed, the Incomplete will be changed to F.
A student may not register in a course in which he has a grade of Incomplete.
The student may be denied the right to make up an Incomplete if it seems to the dean and the instructor that it is impractical for the student to complete the course. In this event, the student should be given the opportunity to withdraw from the course and receive a grade of W on University records.
• None of theae regulations apply to those courses in which completion of the work of the course is not usually required at the end of the semester. Once a atudet&t haa gradua.ted, ftothing ;,. these regulatimu shall fWOhibit the lftcomp!ete from remaining
°" the record.
Where the grade of Incomplete is given because the student missed tbe final examination, he shall be allowed to remove the Incomplete by taking the examination only if he has followed the regular procedure to have his absence excused and the Committee on Absence has noti- fied the instructor that the student may be permitted to take the ex- amination. If the Committee on Absence, under the Dean of Students, determines that the reason for the student's absence is not satisfactory, it should inform the instructor that the grade of Incomplete should be changed to a grade of F.
If the student has not removed the Incomplete within two semes- ters of residence, the dean of the school in which he is currently regis- tered shall authorize the Office of Records and Admissions to change the Incomplete to F. Both the student and the instructor in whose course the student received the Incomplete shall be notified of this change in grade.
A grade of Incomplete may be removed in one of the following ways: ( 1) The student may complete the course within the time limit and the instructor will then send the appropriate Removal of In- complt"te Card to the Office of Records and Admissions. ( 2) The dean of the student's school may authorize the change of Incomplete to W. NoTE: When the Incomplete was received because of absence from the final examination, the student may prefer to receive a grade of W instead of taking the examination. In such cases, the dean will not approve the grade of W unless the Committee on Absence has approved the reason for absence.
Withdrawals. Withdrawals, approved by the dean of the stu- dent's school, during the first four weeks of a full-length semester and during the first two weeks of a summer session, are arbitrarily marked W. After this time, such withdrawals are marked W or WF accord- ing to whether the student is passing or failing in the work of the course at the time of withdrawal, and the student shall be required to show adequate reasons for withdrawal to the dean of his school.
In those cases where students discontinue attendance without official- ly withdrawing, the instructor shall report the grade of WF. Where nonattendance occurs late in the semester, however, a grade of In- complete may be used if the instructor has reason to believe the cause of absence was beyond the control of the student.
