Students Have Hand in Naming New Profs
The Student -Faculty Hiring Committee recently emp loyed five new faculty members to teach at the law schoo l next year. The WOOLSACK has comp il ed all availab le informal.i on on these men in ord er lo introduce them to the student body.
MR DAVID NA VIN: Mr. Nav in is a graduate of the Uni vers it y of Connecticut and it s law school where he served as Managing Editor of the Connecticut Law Review He has served on the staff of Will amette Law School since 1971 having practiced law in the Seattle area for two years. He will teac h Trusts , Estate Planning. Agency a nd Partners hip. and possibly a Commercial Law course nex t year
Stud ent ·s report on Mr. Nav in: Student concerns over Mr. Nav in were focused on two areas: first. hi s reading of notes durin g the seminar. and second. the possibl e over load of faculty in U1e Corporations / Securities area.
The overwhelming opinion was that this cand id ate would make an excel lent teacher and addition to our faculty. The committee rat es him ver y strong in all areas a nd would recommend the Law School offer him a teaching position.
Mr DEA 1 MORRIS: Mr. Morris graduated from Syracuse School of Law in 1964 where he was Case Editor of the Law Re view. He rec eived his L.L.M. at Harvard , a nd is presently the Dean of Academic Affairs at Wayne State Law School.
St ud e nt' s report on Mr. Mo rri s: In genera l, this committee is ver y impressed with Dean Morris' ideas. his hard work , hi s understanding of law students. his enthusiasm over what he had seen of our student motivation and academic goals , hi s co ngenia l personality. and his interest in the s tud e nts. We believe that these all co mbine with his basic intellectual ability to m ake Dean Morris an excellent teacher. and that he would be a definite asset to the USO faculty.
MR RICHARD HILDRETH: Mr. Hildreth graduated from Michigan in 1968 where he was on the Law Review. He received a diploma from Oxford in 1969 , and expects to receive another diploma from Stockholm where he is presentl y doing graduate work Whi le empl oyed with a San Francisco firm , he arg ued an amicus brief before the Ca liforni a Supreme Court.
St ud e nt' s re po rt on Mr. Hildreth: There was li ttle problem for the co mmittee in reaching a concl usi on regarding Mr. Hildr eth. The committee places a high premium on a teacher 's abilit y to sti mulate his class. Whi le Mr. Hildreth may be an asset to the sc hool as an intellectual ; would be a detriment in the class· room Hi s who le approach is too low-key and detached to ever instill an y wide-spread enthusiasm among hi s students. The committee recommended that Mr. Hildreth not be offered a teachi ng pos ition at the school. This recommendation was unanimous
MR P AU L HORTO N: No background information availab le. St ud ent's report on Mr. Ho rton : The students were concerned about Mr. Horton 's ve rbosity , sincerity a nd somewhat offens ive personality. Howe ver , hi s ability lo stimulate and int eres t s tudents thorough hi s apparent thorough organization and fresh style were highl y regarded Co mbining this with this knowl edge of th e la w, pra ctica l expe ri e nce , and hi s theor ies and met hods of teaching , we fe el Mr Horton would be a definite asset to our law sc hool. As s uming that the co mmitte e find s no merit to our res ervation concerning Mr. Horton' s s in cerity, we recomm e nd that he be offered a facult y po s ition
MR. RODNEY JO NES: Mr. Jones r ece ived hi s A.B. and .J .D. degre.e s from lh e Unive rsit y of So uthern California , and ha s been a ndworkmg m the Legal. Cli nic al the University of Conn ec tic ut s mce 1971 Mr Jo nes w ill supervise th e crimina l law elements of th e c lini ca l program as we ll as teac h a co ur se in Cnmmal Law or procedur e.
Stude nt 's re port on Mr .Jone s: Th ere wa s no r epo rt on Mr Jones as he was lllf ed without de li ver in g a se minar lo th e s tud e nt comm ittee.

The President's Place
April, 1973
we found a wo rkm an busily hanging the new drapes. We asked if the family was at home, but he didn 't seem to kn ow. He told us to ask the was ironing in the
The " maid ," interestingly, turned out to be one of the cu sto dial staff of the University. We exp lained who we were, and asked to look around. She seemed a bit co nfu sed bu t didn 't think anyone would mind.
Suburbia on Campus
For those of you who have noticed what seemed to be the intru sion of a suburban tract home wit hin the University complex, yo u may be relieved to know that we haven' t been taken over by the developers yet.
The president of the University ha s simply been provided w ith a home The project was originally to cost us all about $117 ,000 , but the WOOLSACK has received reliable inform ation that the cost now approaches $125,000. It seems that the president's family was no t satisfied with certain minor items , such as the drapes and cabinets , and had them repl ace d.
With the cost of tuition slated to go up next fall, much discussion has cente r ed arou nd the need for a Presidential Home The WOOLSACK sent two of its crack staff, a long with its ace photographer , to

Jessup Competition Ends in Confusion
by Dian e Ward
USD 's pa1ticipation last month in the Western Regional Round of the !973 Jessup International Law Moot Court Competitio n brought 4 r.<, months of arduous preparation by team members to a disappointing 2nd place anti-climax.

The tru ly elegant pieces , borrowed from the University 's collection of antique Spa nish furniture seem out of place among flo wered uphol stery, and glossy , Levitz-like end pieces Th e dining room cha nd e li er is especialy oppressive. The seven tiered , crysta l- li ke edifice may have been better off dipped in pancake batter Disappointed in that we didn 't find anything so shocking as to be worthy of our efforts at yellow journalism we soo n took our l eave, never quite und erstanding where the $125 ,000 went. Perhaps the foundations were made of marble , or the sinks were alabaster. but on first impression it is the opinion of the WOOLSACK that the inflation s itu at ion has gotten completel y out of hand.

From the Editor
With the publication of this th e last issu e ?f the I will be associated wi lh . I find m yse lf mchned lo view the last thr ee yea rs at USD and di sc uss what th ey have m ea nl to me upo·n enterin g in the fall of 1970 outlook was co Mus ed so mew hat by count l ess rumors co nce r111ng wh al happ ens 111 law schools It w as. of co urse. a verifi ed fa ct that by lh e end of th e first sem este r at l eas t one-third of th e ent er in g class would flunk out. A large percentage of th ose who had made it into th e seco nd se m este r would ce rtainly be go ne by Jun e.
Everyone kn ew about pr ofessors lik e Bert and Engfe lt - I here was just no way you were gomg to do better than a 70 with th em. And how aboul ciass pr epara ti on - you mu st st ud y at l eas t four hours ou tside of class for every hour in class.
If you were not briefing cases you had better be spendm g your time making outlines Com mercial outlin es were a rip-offGilberts had been character i zed as the Cl ass ic Com icbooks of the law Can ned briefs were always go ing to be inac curate and th e onl y people naive enough to use th em would be go ne by Th anksgiving.
Distorted by fact and fiction. th e weeks pa ssed. Chrislmas vaca ti on ca me. and it was tim e lo sludy for the first round of exam s. Chri st ma s vacation and finals -a torture surpassed on ly by USD's uniqu e contribution to l eg al educ_ation - blind exams. Remember the rum ors about how much t11n e your friend s had spenl st ud yi ng: and your other friends who knew th e materi al so well that lh ey did not have to study.
And then the morning of th e first exam - how amazing to actua ll v have some idea co ncerning what yo ur profe ssor wanted to kn o\v Post exam discussions did littl e to relieve th e anxieties built up over the prece eding 16 weeks. Your friends always wrote more pages or fewer pages or different conc lusion s or so mething eno ugh tostimulatea heated argument. as if your oponent were U1e professor and you were defending yo ur position to the Supreme Court of the United States.
Semester one became semester two and finall y Mrs Law decorated t he bulletin boards with a few grades. Those defending high grades found themselves hardpresse d to show wh y they had done so well when the blue books were passed out and they co mpared their exams with those written by their less fortunate friends. By the end of the second semester th at year it had become pretty well accepted that the grades meant very little in terms of co mprehension of the law.
The second year of school w as marked by l ess preparation fewer anxieties , and a knowledge that all of the rumors had been di sprove d. By the third y ear, it was absolutely necessary to find other avenues of interest because by this time classes had become an absolute bore.
So in retr ospect , what ha ve these years at USD yie lded? Speaking for m yself, I ha ve gotten to know a large number of interesting people , established strong friendships , learned how to shoot a decent game of pool , read quite a few novels which were assigned in high school and college , consumed a lot of beer , and learned a little about the law. Although there have been many experiences at this school which we re absolutely atrocious , generally I am inclined to vi ew these last three years as being a positive good perhaps more significantly from the standpoint of experiences encountered and associations made than from a trul y academic perspective.

The SBA Board found the Honor Court elections, held in February, lo be invalid because of a failure to follow the Honor Court procedure set out in Article III c 3a of the Honor Code. We we re faced with th e possibil i ty of no Honor Court versus the unpl easa nt task of conducting a new el ection. Th e motion was made and pa sse d directi ng th e SBA to conduct the new Hon or Court el ect ion pursuant to the guidelines set out in the Honor Code This we have done
On othe r levels, we have opened di sc uss ions with the Alumni Association who have tentatively agreed to spo nso r a soc ial eve nt for the graduating stud ents and possib ly another soc ial event in the Fall at Orientation

Is there an y relationaship between admiss ion qualifications and actual performance in law school? William Mitchell a Minnesota Night la w school found the standard law school indicators - the LSAT and undergraduate recJrd - successfully predicted who would do poorl y, but not who wou ld do well. Students who showed a high _potential before law school were more likely than the others m the class to pass the first year exams. As a group, howe ver , the y did not excel. The mor e relevant indicators were marital status ( married students did better than unmarried studen_ts ), the number of hours employed ( those with part-time Jobs did better_ than those with full-time jobs or no jobs at all) and , as you might suspect , the number of hours spent studying had a direct bearing on performance.
