Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Law School of Harvard College Matters of personal privilege are said to be always in order, and personal privilege is often personal explanation. This paper asks attention to some matters pertaining to the history of the Law School of Harvard College, which must necessarily partake somewhat of that character. I am impelled to this course by two publications, appearing near the same time in the month of October, - the first a short article in the American Law Review, relating to the School, and the other a report of the Committee of the Overseers to the Board, upon the same subject. I have not inquired who was the author of the article in the Review. The responsible parties are the editors of that periodical, which, in its Summary of Events, speaks in this wise: - "Harvard University. Law School. - For a long time the condition of the Harvard Law School has been almost a disgrace to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. We say 'almost a disgrace, ' because, undoubtedly, some of its courses of lectures have been good, and no law school of which this can be said is hopelessly bad.
