History of Campbell Law School

Six Years Later

Six years later, and Campbell Law School is going strong. Many had doubts as to whether a law school could survive at such a small university, but just as many were convinced that it would thrive. Dean F. Leary Davis best sums up this feeling in a statement in the 1982 Pine Burr:

"Six years ago, we said Campbell was going to establish a different kind of law school--an educational and economic model for the small law school and a laboratory for innovation in legal education. Today, it is rewarding to be at Campbell not just because the school has been established, but also because there is a sense of excitement and becoming, a pioneering spirit, a conviction that the Campbell experiment is important. The small school model is working, certainly in part because of the validity of our premises, but even more because of the students and faculty here, and the entire Campbell Community. They are why we are glad we are here."
