| Welcome
to Loyola. This year, we begin our second century as the
University’s first professional school and we are very pleased that you
will become a part of our rich tradition. While we are proud of
our past, we look forward to witnessing the contributions that our
students and alumni will make to our profession and society in the
coming years. As a member of the legal profession, you will play an
important role in the reshaping of a world that is changing rapidly. We
know that you are well-prepared to succeed at the School of Law and to
have a positive impact as a member of the legal profession.
Please help us to make your experience at Loyola a good one. I invite you to take time to get to know your classmates, your faculty, staff and administration. I believe that you’ll find Loyola to be an extraordinary community of individuals who are dedicated not only to your professional growth, but also to your growth as a person and member of the larger society. You’ll find Loyola to be a friendly and supportive place, and I hope that you’ll agree that our greatest strength is the quality of our student body. I encourage you to find ways to become involved in the life of the school. There will be plenty of opportunities. This year, we will continue our renovation of the Law center building at 25 East Pearson. The renovation began last year with a complete overhaul of floors 10 and 11, where many of your classes will be conducted this year. In December, we will begin phase two of the project and renovate the 12th floor. If all goes as planned, our administrative offices and some great new classrooms will be completed there by the end of the spring. When the renovation is completed, the School of Law will occupy exclusively nine floors of the building and will feature 19 modern classrooms with high-end audio/visual and computer capabilities, additional space for student, faculty and staff offices, and several types of attractive and quiet study areas to accommodate a variety of student study needs. Since the construction will be conducted on vacant floors, you will probably not notice the work, but “pardon our dust” if you do. I wish you the best as you begin your first year studies. You are surrounded by people at Loyola – students, faculty and staff – who want you to do well and to do good. I look forward to getting to know you. |
